There is no amount of coolness worth the health risks of smoking. And the only meaningful difference between smoking and vaping is the lack of second-hand smoke so the user is only poisoning themselves instead of their surroundings.
This. All of this. We recently moved from the US to Berlin and I feel as if I stepped back in time about 15 years. Everyone smokes here. It’s as if the city is one giant ashtray, and it’s absolutely disgusting.
Vaping pollutes the area around it just as bad as smoking.
Last summer, I was driving on the highway and there was a car 100 yards or more in front of me. Every 20 seconds or so, a huge cloud of smoke would erupt from the car. And every time, a few seconds later, I would smell his tooti-frooti vape as I drove thru what was left of that cloud.
Get a pipe. No coughing since you don’t inhale, plus it makes you look dignified rather than “cool”
Plus it smells a lot better.

Yechh!
I was behind a guy at a red light once that was huffing on his vapor thing so hard I thought his car was on fire.
I was just about to grab my extinguisher when the light turned green.
Wait… when did you ever smoke? You made more than one strip about why you don’t, and won’t, smoke.
From those of us who get asthma attacks and 16-hr migraines from smoke, thank you for not smoking. And massive kudos for quitting!
