Vaping/smoking

vinnyt77

SM001 100% this. 10 years since I switched from fags to vaping. Not interested in flavours and all that shit. Genuinely don’t give a shit what it looks like. It’s feeding a nicotine addiction, and doing it (I hope) somewhat less catastrophically than smoking cigarettes.

I’ve got into snus - it’s not very long before you got from the basic stuff to the rocket fuel, but I can really easily take or leave it - nice now and again

Along_the_Wire …isn’t that mouth cancer tackle mate? I dabbled with it a couple of times, until I heard about that

Unbroken1 can’t imagine it’s good for you, but it’s just a bit of fun and easy to take or leave

Tobacco-free nicotine pouches will be a less carcinogenic alternative to snus, in case you do have some concerns.

hugopal I have the tabacco-free ones - use Velo Max. I’m not too worried, booze will kill be first I’m sure

Millsy Obviously teenagers and 20s will do such things

I found smoking nasty even as a teenager and in my 20s. I tried a few times, but just don’t know how people can get in to it; it just feels like polluting your body and makes things stink.

I did get on alright with snus though - as per Grant’s comment above it was good for an occasional fun nicotine buzz. But if I was to do something like that again in future it would also probably be the less toxic, tobacco-less nicotine pouches.

then there’s probably not a huge amount to worry about then anyway

Never been a heavy smoker but always enjoyed a few with a drink. Knocked them on the head for good recently when a family member was diagnosed with lung cancer.

Also packed in my weed vaporizer, miss that more than the tabs.

Apparently there are people now vaping nicotine free vapes.

Watching grown adults clutchign their pacifiers is weird.

Loads of people vaping inside the club last sunday. Have to say that was a bit weird.

The sight of smokers outside hospitals, especially staff, is a sad sight.

benson once worked in Royal Surrey in my 20s during Uni break. Smoked at the time. Smoking room in the bowels of the hospital, yellow nicotine walls. One day I saw a bloke smoking a tab through his tracheostomy hole. Grim.

My faves are the ones in a chair with a drip attached.

Surely they’re that dumb they just deserve a bolt through the skull?

I enjoy being a social smoker, can easily go from not smoking for a couple of months to 10 a day for a couple of weeks on holiday, then stop again.

I do find if I smoke on a night out I go all in and smoke loads, knowing what’s left I bin. I do try and limit which nights out on the booze I buy fags for. Apparently it’s not good for you

rhouses

RichM that’s my problem at the moment, quitting for a month or two is easy. But having that one off cig is just as easy, knowing I can quit. Really I’d prefer to just end it than being on and off on a monthly basis.

Also, has to be a menthol on the come up.

I’ve never smoked just smoked cigs but did only used tobacco when I used to smoke the herb. But stopped that 5 years ago. My parents finally stopped after 60+ years but only because my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer back in August.

Used to love a ciggie when absolutely battered on the ole Mick Mills back in the day.

Can be dicey if the traps are busy

That first tab after you’ve come up is one of life’s beautiful feelings imo. Nicotine is an amazing drug. Some people think it could be neuroprotective.

Millsy

I must admit a cig when coming up is wunderbar alright

RichM

Can only be beaten by a cheeky spliff in a club when coming up
