That’s why i ditched my dab pen a few years ago. It was just too easy to lay on the couch and hit that all night, becoming ungodly high without realizing it. Now i go outside an smoke a joint so i EARN that ungodly high
It’s what it was advertised as originally, but then brands realized they could boom in sales by dropping that act and making cute, colorful cartridges with a shit ton of flavors that appeal to teens. Some girl had these iPod case looking ones that were flavored like pineapple banana or smth. Hell they make vapes disguised as school supplies now.
There’s a lot of people who didn’t do drugs at all that started with vaping (Truth Initiative has a 2020 study about it, I skimmed it tbh), and it’s especially bad in middle and high schools. I saw people hitting huge fucking clouds in the middle of a classroom, near the teacher’s desk. One idiot made a cloud in our dark classroom with the curtains shining sunlight on him, so they had to close the blinds and fan the cloud so he wouldn’t get caught.
They know full well they’re creating future addicts and eventual cigarette smokers, and they don’t give a damn.
The Netflix doc also covers how Juul hired the wrong guy to do thier commercials.
He’s the dude famous for making the iPod pastel silhouette commercials. Hip and sexy.
Juul started by wanting to help people quit. Then some influencer was vaping on stream and it blew the hell up in short order amongst younger crowds.
What really pisses me off is the synthetic THC Juul carts teens were smoking that fucked them up. They did that to themselves by trying to do drugs using a Juul. Juul and the legit vaping industry took all that backlash. The news and even CDC spouted bullshit in the name of sparing kids. No one clarified that they were smoking bootleg weed (illegal drugs) and Juul/legal vaping wasn’t at fault.
So adults that were vaping to quit ciggs switched back to ciggs to never quit. I was a vaper during that time and I can’t tell you how many people I set straight when they said “that’ll kill you” while they’re smoking ciggs.
This is the right way to vape.
Should be used as a way to quit smoking.
People that vape as an alternative to smoking cigarettes end up chain vaping. It’s just too convenient.

Ditto. Coding for hours on end chugging coffee and pulling on a nic stick wasn’t a healthy lifestyle.
