I'd also prefer that arms dealers shut down, that whatever Philip Morris calls itself these days shut down, that food manufacturers stop using high-fructose corn syrup, etc, etc.
- leetcrew 7y agois juul hurting you personally? I and many of my friends are using juuls and other vapes as smoking cessation tools with great success. we would very much prefer for them not to shut down. edit: I do understand that some people are concerned about juul's alleged marketing to minors. if that's really what you're upset about, why not narrow your focus? I don't think many vape consumers would object to having vape advertisements strictly limited or banned.
- nzjrs 7y agoNot being a xxxx, but I wanted to honestly ask about how you square or feel about those that start vaping in order to quit smoking, and then just massively become into vaping, talk about it all the time and the gadgetry and accessories, the community, etc. I've got a few friends that went this way and it's a bit... odd.
- leetcrew 7y agoI think it's a little bit silly, but I went through that phase for about a year, so I don't judge the people too harshly. as long as you're not chucking huge clouds at people in a public space, I think it's mostly harmless. in a way, it kinda reminds me of the pc overclocking community.
- dr_dshiv 7y agoIt's because it works so much better than anything else. But then it becomes insidious and if one is smart, you don't keep it around anymore. But for those with addiction issues, way better to be Juul than pretty much any other addiction
- PascLeRasc 7y agoIt's just a hobby, like being "into" craft beer, whiskey, or PC gaming. Those aren't healthy in excess either, and it is annoying when someone only wants to talk about their one interest, but overall it isn't really hurting anyone else. It's a bit of a red herring to bring that up when Juul is by far the lowest-effort vaping method - you wouldn't have to know how to build a coil or mix VG/PG to use one.
- nzjrs 7y agoIt's the replacement part that I was referring to. More like if the friend was previously drinking too much whisky, and thought they should stop drinking so much alcohol, so got massively into craft beer.
- UncleEntity 7y agoProbably the same way you'd feel about a friend that got all into beer and has to try all the "exotics" then goes out and buys a bunch of stuff to brew it themselves.
