The world just ended. It had to. Because I'm really out of any other good reason or explanation for shit like this. I mean really- what the fuck is the point?

That got an audible "what the hell?" out of me.

It lets people get their nic fix and mimics the ritual aspects of smoking, without the antisocial parts, like making a room uninhabitable for nonsmokers. What's not to like?

Smoking is bad for you, yes? But nicotine and the physical habit are niiiiiiice. So, okay, how can we get one without the other? It's not the SMOKE we want, it's the drug.

Okay, drug handled. No fire, so you don't have issues doing it inside, and it doesn't leave stale smoke everywhere, which even I hated as a smoker, when I smoked. The only inhalant is nicotine + water vapor, sometimes a glycol fog, either of which are pretty much "way better for you than the goo in smoke", and while nicotine's not HEALTHY it's not all that hideous in and of itself.


It's pricy, it looks a little funny, but it handles the desire for "drug" and the desire for the physical ritual of smoking without actually having many of the harmful aspects of smoke.

Pricey, yes, but when you consider what a pack of cigarettes costs these days (they were around $5 when I quit six years ago, I imagine they're more now), quite cost effective in the long run.

Indeed, this is another point. Initially higher investment, paying out (in theory) over time, though I expect that cartridges do have some replacement cost.

I'm just marveling at a possible scene in your office as your boss wanders over, looking stern.

"You can't smoke in here!"
"But it's not real, it's just water vapor and it's totally not illegal."
"..."
"And now I don't have to go on smoke breaks either!"
"..."

"No. Just no."

Those have been around for a while now, although I don't know anyone who's tried them. I think they're kinda cool. If the starter kit wasn't so pricey, I'd totally try it.

They have a smoke free pipe too.

I have a neighbor who tried them.....when he had it he dragged on that thing so hard I was afraid he would suck it into his lungs.

He's back to smoking regular tobacco.

This.

The fact that we took ten freaking comments to get to this is downright frightening. I fear for the youth of the world.

I have human minions, who have demonstrated their willingness to do things they know they shouldn't just because I told them to.

MUAHAHAHAHA

You should at least be able to blow soap bubbles with it for the price.
