Hello there folks,
I’m from London, but currently reside in Barcelona where a student of mine turned me on to vaping. I’ll tell my story below for those who can be bothered to read it.
I have never smoked cigarettes and rejoiced when the smoking ban came into effect in the UK.
However, I had always liked what found out to be pipe smoke - at least the flavoured tobaccos. So, I started smoking a rock-filtered pipe which I bought in California when I was about 19, only intermittently because the ‘filter rocks’ were expensive so I left it after a while. Of course the ash and pipe itself stank like shit afterwards - as did my breath I guess; and I never got the same taste as the smell I’d previously experienced following a pipe smoker down the street.
I had brief dalliances with pipe smoking since then, but am now quite far from 19!! and recently found out about vaping - damn!!! This is exactly what I have been looking for. The possibility to get the flavour without the carcinogens and stink. Plus the DIY and gadget aspects blew my middle-aged mind! hehe.
I have always vaped no nic.
Now I have a two mods and one on the way, six attys with another on the way and loads of kit!
One question - I can’t seem to create recipes on the database part of this site without nicotine content. Is there something I’m missing or am I doing it wrong?
My first post has been ‘flagged by the community’ - WTF? because I wrote the word sh*t when referring to the smell of pipe ash perhaps? Isn’t this meant for a mature audience anyway?
Hmmm
your account is on hold ??? i do know that it will take a few posts b4 you can do certain things in the forum but as far as an account being on hold we will have to summon
by the way, it’s ‘mightvape’ because my online name is ‘mightlife’, but I thought I’d mix it up a little for this site.
Here’s my YouTube channel , check it out if you are into unconventional synth music (or motorcycling - older videos).
The system flagged your post it wasn’t anyone here first post should be unhidden and the topic should be visible now. Since you introduced yourself and asked a question I won’t merge it with the introduce yourself thread.
Welcome @mightvape. Vaping isn’t always about quitting smoking. Oral satisfaction is soothing …and while nicotine is a stimulant it can also have a calming effect. For me, vaping helps to not yank shitty drivers out of their vehicles in traffic …which has been a big plus for Society as a whole. A-hole cuts you off or almost crashes into you by rolling their stop sign? …the old Anger Mgt. advice was “count to ten”, but I just take a couple puffs …which is 5X more efficient. So you see from a Scientific standpoint Vaping can make your life up to 5 times more efficient and can end Global tensions!
