I'm not knocking it at all. I'd like to do it to cover down on my desire to do something ( I smoked after meals, when talking with friends, etc. I still feel that urge, like I'm missing something). If there was a way to do it with just water I'd probably jump on it. But it seems you have to at least add glycerin which I'm not too comfortable with inhaling.

I'd like to do it to cover down on my desire to do something ( I smoked after meals, when talking with friends, etc. I still feel that urge, like I'm missing something). So far there is no evidence that either vegetable glycerin or propylene glycol is unsafe to inhale. The diacetyl used in a lot of "premiere" juices is unsafe, but most homebrew or store juices don't use it. The known dangers are inhaling vapor off of nichrome or nickel coils, juices with diacetyl and sub-ohm use on bad batteries (they can go boom) That being said - you're quit, dude! Don't go back! Even if it's just the oral fixation, you've obtained the dream - don't get sucked back in!

Tuxedo Jack posted:If you're not a current smoker, I wouldn't even consider it - but I smoked for 12 years, and tried everything to quit to no avail. I tried vaping once, and never went back to cigarettes. I can breathe, taste and smell things, I can run up and down stairs, and I don't smell like an ashtray all the time. I can't agree with this more. Vaping literally saved my life, not just death from lung cancer but suicide. I tried cold turkey, various medications (champix was seriously good but not enough), and in the end my depression was just too much. I get why people look down on it, especially people who did quit cold turkey but not everyone has the ability to have that willpower. Consequently, I vape in a manner that preserves the juice rather than make big arse clouds, and am thinking of ways to reduce the nocitine from 4 mg to 2 or even 1 mg.

I dipped for a long time. It's horrible and wonderful at the same time. David Foster Wallace captures the way I feel better than I can: quote:Let’s acknowledge first that this Q actually preceded the last one, and that you just inserted an artful little bridge-sentence in your question-text to suggest otherwise. I know you’re interested in tobacco and the covert gradual suicide that is habitual tobacco use. My own situation is not all that different from Tom Bissell’s, who had some article about chewing tobacco in Tumescent Male Monthly or something last year that I resonated with on many frequencies. I started smoking at twenty three after two years of dabbling in clove cigarettes (which were big in the early eighties). I liked cigarettes, very much, but one thing I did not like was how hard they were on the lungs and wind in terms of sports, stair-climbing, coitus, etc. Some roofer friends back home got me started on chew as a cigarette-substitute at I think age twenty eight. Chew doesn’t hurt your lungs (obviously), but it also has massive, massive amounts of nicotine, at least compared to Marlboro Lights. (This, too, is all very condensed and boiled down; sorry if it’s terse.) I have tried probably ten serious times to quit chewing tobacco in the last decade. I’ve never even made it a year. Besides all the well-documented psychic fallout, the hardest thing about quitting for me is that it makes me stupid. Really stupid. As in walking into rooms and forgetting why I’m there, drifting off in the middle of sentences, feeling coolness on my chin and discovering I’ve been drooling. Without chew, I have the attention span of a toddler. I giggle and sob inappropriately. And everything seems very, very far away. In essence it’s like being unpleasantly stoned all the time… and as far as I can tell it’s not a temporary withdrawal thing. I quit for eleven months once, and it was like that the whole time. On the other hand, chewing tobacco kills you—or at the very least it makes your teeth hurt and turn unpleasant colors and eventually fall out. Plus it’s disgusting, and stupid, and a vector of self-contempt. So, once again, I’ve quit. It’s now been a little over three months. At this moment I have in gum, a mint, and three Australian tea-tree toothpicks that a Wiccan friend swears by. One reason you and I are chatting in print rather than in real time is that it’s taken me twenty minutes just to formulate and press the appropriate keys for the preceding ¶. Actually speaking with me would be like visiting a demented person in a nursing home. Apparently I not only drift off in the middle of a sentence but sometimes begin to hum, tunelessly, without being aware of it. Also, FYI, my left eyelid has been twitching nonstop since August 18. It’s not pretty. But I’d prefer to live past fifty. This is my Tobacco Story Also, pouches are for pussies.

Snowman Crossing posted:*faaaaaaaaaaaart* If I could smother one idea in western culture, it'd be the concept of the lone badass taking out all of the heavily armed bad guys with just a pistol. People have no concept of how hilariously outgunned someone with a pistol would be against someone carrying an assault rifle.

If they were indoors upstairs against a single person with an assault rifle overly preoccupied with that person on the ground, they might get lucky. Bonus points when it turns out the terrorist they just shot was an open carry nut who just shot someone for violating his right to stand his ground. (In reality, they'd probably just end up shooting someone who was holding a shovel in an aggressively terroristic fashion.)
