What the fuck is this comment section even? Is vape vs cig the new Star Trek vs Star Wars, where fans of either side congregate to tear into each other with enough vitriol to make both vape and cig look healthy in comparison?

Each new import batch from Reddit these days is lower quality :)

At least on Reddit, i was getting blasted because I pointed out vapers here in Australia were constantly breaking the laws and were using vaping as an excuse to vape inside "because it's just water vapor".

If it's just water vapor, then you don't need to do it in the cabin of a train mate.. or right at the entrance of the supermarket so every one needs to breathe in your smoke when they enter

Over smokers in general. To make things worse, a lot of "free thinkers" tend to be smoking. Because nothing demonstrates your ability to think independently by being conned into using an addictive substance that harms you

I'm not saying you're wrong, but personally, I've run out of fucks to give about the whole debate. I have an opinion, sure, but I don't want to throw it into the sewage pool that is the discussion in this comment section.

[–] Auzy@aussie.zone 1 points 1 day ago

Thats definitely fair.. To be honest, I keep deleting my account on reddit / Lemmy to keep out of the debates.

I was recently in Europe. It's not even about health. Guys, stop it, you smell like shit.

If you're trying to get lung cancer .... get lung cancer with style

If you are going to get cancer, at least look cool.

Cigarettes look so uncool, though. Hardly a step up from vapes and they fuckin stiiiinnnnk.

I would much rather be near someone vaping their blueberry muffin raztastic whatever than a lit cigarette

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 32 points 4 days ago

This. I smoked cigs for such a long time, now on vape. It's 100% better. You feel better, your teeth are better, list goes on. Sure it's not the best, we all should quit smoking. But it's better than nasty ass cigs that stay on your clothes, car, makes your teeth yellow and the list goes on.

There is nothing better than a cig, a glass of whiskey, in a hot tub naked on a cold day. But I don't want that everyday.

I'm 45+ and French. This seems very misleading as smoking has been declining a lot the past couple decades.

reject modernity, embrace tradition

i don't think highly of people who smoke but I think much less of people who think it's cool. at least if you're embarrassed and apologetic about it I will still consider you a person.
