Dipping is where it’s at. It’s so relaxing. You don’t smell either. It’s also cheaper. You can do it indoors. It suppresses your appetite so you lose weight too. Dipping is great on road trips. You can dip inside tiger stadium too. You can dip in movie theaters. You can dip in class.

But the issue is kids get very addicted to the nicotine.

The guest in the piece said nicotine isn't any worse than caffeine. Once again, not sure if completely true.

Anecdotally, I have been addicted to both and its not close.

I'll have a mild headache and be tired if I don't drink my daily caffeine (and I drink like 3-4 cups a day of strong coffee).

When I was a chain smoker in college, if I didn't smoke, I was an angry, mean psychopath that would binge eat and bite my fingernails. I couldn't really think straight because I was just thinking about running to the gas station and grabbing a pack. fricking brutal. First drag of a cigarette would send wave of warm comfort across my body.

Can you ask your brother in-law to ship me those mango juul pods that he confiscates from the kids.

Yeah it’s become pretty common among HS kids at this point.

The larger issue is what they’re vaping. Because it’s definitely not just nicotine.

I just watched a John Stossel piece where one of his guests said that nicotine itself is no different that caffeine. It's the delivery system of tobacco with all other kinds of shite in it that's harmful. Not sure if that's completely true or not but it's an interesting theory


Most of the adverse health effects are from the smoke, and it's much better to vape if you're addicted. But nicotine is not completely benign.

I may end up being the minority but I tried using a vape to quit smoking. It hurt my chest way worse than smoking did. I'm still not convinced that there isn't going to be a huge backlash eventually when they figure out that vaping poses some really serious health risk in its own right.

its going to be great when we find out that e-cig smoke builds up and creates these multi colored stalactites of tar hanging off your lungs. Or some other terrible shite.

If it was my 18 year old I'd prefer it was THC to nicotine.

Kids are all over these juul things now. Most of them have never even picked up a cigarette.
