VerwilderdNot much into water vapor with random crap inside--other than the naturally occurring sort (fog/smog). No point in put'n any extra crap in there--is there?

RayFIf you’re vaping, you’re putting in other stuff for flavor and/or nicotine/weed. we are still learning what harmful effects come from vaping, but don’t kid yourself. There are some.
By by the way, wanna talk about natural, tobacco leaves are natural.

VerwilderdYou think something I said indicated I was in support of Vaping? Let me clear that up for you, health affects aside, I don't support looking like an idiot in public. As to the natural-ness of tobacco, I agree: it's a natural source of a know carcinogen and it's naturally addictive. Cobra venom is natural too, by the way, and so are opium poppies, commits and the asteroid that ruined the nice day quite a few dinosaurs were having when it hit.

RayFWhere did I indicate that you supported vaping? I was simply responding to the op. You jumped in. Reading comp much?
Oh, and on to your examples...cobra venom can be extremely useful, life-saving in fact. It’s used for anti-venom. Opium? Again, life saving for many people. Opium is used in many analgesics we use on a daily basis. Both of these, when ”consumed” CORRECTLY, are very helpful for humans. Are you trying to say that cigars are bad unless you “consume” them the right way?
Your last examples can’t be consumed, BUT if it weren’t for that asteroid, you wouldn’t be here typing this. So you might argue that this is also good. On commits (I think you meant comets), what do they do beside fly around? These aren’t what hit the earth...typically.
So....if I use your version of reading comp, I’d think you actually like cigars and today must be “Opposite Day“ for you. Did I get it right? What do I win? 🙄

VerwilderdMy comments to @masscheese regarding his preference for vape shit on MD were intended as sarcasm. Your comment to him probably left us both confused--you seemed simultaneously pro Cigars and anti vape--spare us an explanation.
Your defense of Cobra venom being used correctly misses the obvious point: there are no correct uses of tobacco products (with the possible exception of it's use as a slow, but effective aid to natural selection--smokers are part of dying, dinosaur-esque, breed).
Which is to say: while an asteroid may not fall out of the sky and hit you in the head, one day the facts about smoking most definitely will (the details of which, I shall leave to your Oncologist).

cbtlrtypical troll bait.
you should already know its widely accepted that vaping is not 100% safe (DUH). there are risks involved however it is dramatically less harmful than smoking cigarettes.

Sounds like you believe calling comments that disagree with you, or that present facts contrary to your opinions, "troll bait" has some magic power against reality? Like crosses to vampires? It does not. That would be like calling players who kneel during the national anthem unpatriotic, or refering to news coverage you don't like as Fake News. It's a dangerous trend because you never know how far it's going to go or where it's going to lead, long-term. Betting @cbtlr already new all that?
