Thread: Did you quit smoking? Are there any vapers here?

  1. #21
    Well, that is where the money would go, for sure.

    Quit fifteen years ago. Stopped dead with the simple rule that I wouldn't, under any circumstances, smoke another one. I haven't. I have a small collection of very thoroughly cleaned Dunhill pipes that I will gently chew on when thinking hard or relaxing.

    This one is my favourite:

    I gave up just like that too (I was very young so prob that made it easy) but I did notice that I missed having my pack of tabs, something for my hands to play with (thank goodness phones eventually came along to fill that gap) so I can see how the paraphenalia of vaping helps to prevent there being a gaping hole in the life of the quitter

    10 points for constructing a sentence that includes both vaping and gaping.

Good thing my gouvernement is not the brightest since the fascists took over the power here, cos else they would tax the crap out of it...

    i forgot, grimmgreen has just posted a sneakpreview about the lemo2 on youtube and he gave it good comment
    I find it ridiculous that they would ban this while cigarettes are sold and accessible everywhere. The ecigarettes are sold since 2004 in Europe and every serious researches done today are all saying the same. Vaping is way better than smoking. We don't know the long time effects, but researches are rather encouraging in that aspect. Cardiologists around the world are fighting to have the product regulated so it's more accessible, not the contrary. My doctor also agrees with that.

    In Canada, nicotine products are prohibited(but not cigarettes that we know kill thousands of people every year), but Vape shops are opening everywhere across the country anyway. In Quebec, hundreds of shops open in the last year and it's one of the fastest growing business. Vaping is also the method that shows the best results in quitting the cancer sticks. And Vaping is the most used world on the net in 2014, so people are better getting use to it : )

    I think i'll love the Lemo II. Even Rip Tripper said it was a great tank in a short preview, and he's not the biggest fan of these as he prefers drippers, as you know ( I love this guy, he's so funny). I can't wait to get it . It seems they fixed all the bads of the Lemo I. A friend of mine is using one, and while a good tank with great flavour, it's a pain in the butt to fill and the airflow system is even worst.

    As with watches, i like to be a bit involved in my hobbies, so i think I'll enjoy making my own coils. I'll let you know how that goes ; )

    Enjoy VAPING!

    Ah oui! Le lobby du tabac est très puissant!

    Our governments (federal and provincial) are just burying their heads in the sand right now. E-liquids are sold every where anyway, but we're waiting for the regulation, which should be soon. I just hope they will not go crazy on taxes like they do with cigarettes ($10 to $13 a pack with 2/3 of it been taxes). They have to understand that, like patches and nicotine gum, e-cigs are a way to stop smoking and is showing to be much more efficient than any other method. For sure, if you can quit with your will, it's even better, but I like to make clouds of smoke (or vapor, I should say)

    Soon, we'll see cigarette companies selling their e-juices and e-cigs. I'm sure. The analogue cigarette is endangered by the new digital, and I'm more than happy of it.

    Last year, at work, we were two vapers. Now, were 9 out of maybe 14 smokers! It really works!

    I received my Lemo II about two weeks ago and simply love it! The clouds you can make with this!!! Amazing taste, amazing air flow and filling system... I'm very happy with it. I'm still on the .5 ohm coil that came with it, so I'll see how coils making go, but I'm sure it will be a lot of fun.

    I took a picture of my different tanks and batteries. I like to have different set ups for different occasions. I don't use the big vapor makers at work, so the little Aspire tanks are great for cigarette like draw and when fitted with the new BVC coils, they produce great taste.
