Teens don't need to be smoking or vaping. Outside of that there's no reason to trash a product that's enabled many millions to quit smoking. It's so much safer than smoking that I see no need to quit vaping. Even my doctor agrees that it's virtually harmless, especially if it keeps me off cigarettes.

I agree. I only smoked for 5 years, but I got a 24/7 smokers cough within 3 years. I coughed all day and all night. My chest was always congested and I could barely breath. All that vanished when I started vaping. My husband turned to me one night and said how happy he was with the vaping, because I stopped coughing all night.

Man, I love these tobacco funded ads, (now vape) they always made me want to vape or smoke immediately! Either they're all buzzy and filled with flashing neon lights and exciting pictures while talking about the bad stuff, or they're just nuts like the one that wanted to convince me that all pets would die of second hand smoke, oh except I didn't smoke in the house, LOL.

I'm ambivalent. I would love not being addicted to nicotine. Simply not the case. As per the ad, I'm apathetic. I see ads constantly. My only reaction is "delete".

I couldn't get through the list. While there was some amusement involved it also activated trichotillomania, the disorder of plucking all of one's hairs out for various reasons... This one involved trying to get myself to accept reality as it is, LOL.
