They're better than smoking tobacco and an excellent alternative for smokers that can't quite quit. My brother has been doing the e-butts for a couple years and can't quite make the final leap from this $50 a month habit.
Seems to me Jenny is pushing the, this shit won't hurt you so with these you can be one of us cool people too.
I quit last May, after 56 years of the Camel/Marlboro habit. There were occasions where smoke would burn my eyes, or ashes burn my clothes, and I'd get fits of heavy coughing if I had a cold. But even so, for the most part I really enjoyed smoking.
I quit cold turkey, I had 73 packs on hand for months then gave them away. I don't miss the nicotine very much, but sorely miss the social benefits. They let me know when I was done eating so I wouldn't keep nibbling. They gave me something to do waiting for a download, or when I had some time to kill. there are a lot of little shit like that I miss...
besides making me look cool rolled up in my tee shirt sleeve.
