I suppose they're a way out for people that don't want to give up nicotine, but would rather they weren't poisoned as a result. Once you get over the nicotine addiction though, it's really not something you miss. It's not like it does anything for you.

But they're almost certainly much better for you than real fags
They don't upset other non-smokers
I don't see why anywhere should ban them
But yeah, if you want to be a real man, smoke a real fucking cigarette.

Those people that get upset by them need to grow up.

Is it just the smell?
Surely then pubs should ban shit aftershave and people with BO as well.

and they are small minded cunts

They have been pressured into patches, gum and now this bent vaping thing. That's plenty to protect other people from second-hand smoke.
Continuing complaints about something that so far seems completely harmless just because it looks a bit like a fag, should be met with an icy stare and a "if you don't like it, the place down the road has banned them."

Meanwhile the poor non-smoker in the group is sitting alone inside watching the coats.

It also means that if you are out drinking and you fancy a couple of drags on someone's cigarette, or even a whole one, you can do so quite safely.

After a while I was smoking so infrequently that I ended up back at the headrush and nausea stage. Was easy to pack it in entirely after that.

Smoked since I was about 14. Stopped a year or so ago. Smoke a bit weed on a weekend.
I suppose ecigs remove the tar and tobacco and are "healthier"

Plus it is a medical fact that male smokers have bigger penises and are better lovers.

Never been my thing, I just always seemed to need a smoke when I took speed. I've smoked many a joint when pissed too.

Do any smokers actually enjoy the taste of a cigarette? Even pissed they always tasted FUCKING RANK to me
( , Mon 18 Aug 2014, 10:37, Reply)

I dont think I've even smoked anything in about 10 years
( , Mon 18 Aug 2014, 11:01, Reply)

I enjoy not only the taste of tobacco but also the feeling of inhaling a noxious substance.
( , Mon 18 Aug 2014, 10:48, Reply)

I don't find any bitter burning aftertaste, also finding the tobacco that you like helps.

Didn't like them, either. I guess I was not one of the world's natural smokers.

I don't miss it though, that's for sure. The only thing it was good for was covering the smell of piss and sweat in grotty clubs.
Ecigs are off, but then trends are trends, they'll go the way of the Yo yo in the end. I imagine someone will prove they're harmful and they'll go.

I didn't really make a conscious decision to give up. I felt the need to smoke less and less, unless I was pissed. Then when I was on-call for a week I met my mates in a pub afterwards and decided to not bother. The only time I've missed it is once when some bellend was talking to me and sloping off for a fag would've allowed me to get away.
I don't see the point in e-cigs though. Smoke properly or not at all.

I've had to have a 'discussion' with the family re asking fucking inane questions when I'm either busy/deeply concentrating on something/upside-down in a cupboard trying to restore the water supply etc etc. They finally got it. I think the murderous look in my eyes and the throbbing vein in the forehead emphasised my point better than any raising of the voice could.

Went to a bar in Clapham to meet up with some friends. It's one of those shit cocktail bars you find everywhere, All Bar One, I think. A few drinks in and I decide I'd like some whisky.
Go up to the bar.
"Hi, I'd like a double Johnny Walker and a G&T, please"
"A G&T and a what?"
"Double Johnny Walker"
"We don't sell Johnny Walker"
"Er, I can see it. Right there."
"Oh"
So the barman and his hipster haircut wander off, get two tall glasses and fills them both up with ice, makes a G&T and goes to put my whisky in the other.
"Sorry, could I not have any ice?"
"Oh, of course"
*tips out the ice*
"Would you like a short glass?"
"That'd be nice, yes"
Then he spends five minutes trying to find it on the till.
Half an hour later, the missus goes back, gets the same bar guy. Again he says they don't sell it. She points to it. He tries to put it in a tall glass with ice again, she stops him.
His last question: "Would you like some lime?"
