Hello everyone, I am Zizzister(duh) and I am a smoker. We all know that smoking is a difficult task to quit. We also know that it is a hazard to your health killing 400,000 people each year. Today, Obama has raised taxes on tobacco products and has destroyed health care. Most might want to quit but do not have the willpower to do so or the nicotine gum and prescription drugs was not enough. You might ask yourself "Is there a healthier alternative to smoking?." Believe it or not, there is! The electronic cigarette!
An electronic cigarette is a device that simulates a real cigarette without the risk of cancer. That's because it contains no tobacco or cancerous substances.
Here are the positive details about it:
*Does not contain tobacco.
*Does not contain dangers to second hand smoke. Instead of smoke, you get a harmless water vapor.
*Usually contains 3 ingredients: water, nicotine, and a food additive. The food additive is proven by the Food and Drug Administration to be harmless to your body.
*Does not stain your teeth.
*Does not make your breath smell atrocious nor does your clothing.
*Does not contain cancerous substances to increase risk of cancer.
*Permitted to use indoors including bars, stores, airplanes etc.
*Using this device is cheaper.
So what are you waiting for?! Dispose those cancer sticks and order one online today! I highly recommend a model called the Joye 510.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I guarantee that you will have a longer and healthier life with this amazing product.
I have decided to update this thread to warn smokers about the false facts about this device.
Fact 1: The device tastes like a real cigarette.
A: FALSE! You taste a sweet sensation and the nicotine but not the tobacco flavor. However, you can purchase some tobacco flavored nicotine cartridges to receive the taste of a real cigarette.
Fact 2: You can use the device ANYWHERE you like.
A: FALSE! Some buses in Spokane, Washington did not permit me to use them after I explained all of the positive details about the device. A casino prohibited electronic cigarettes because someone complained that the device produced a horrible odor. BS!

I only smoke on occasions, but I think these will take a while to take off if they even do at all. I doubt they're as satisfying as real smokes and people will feel like they look stupid when they use them.

How is using an E-cigarette make a person look stupid? Smoking is stupid. Using an E-cigarette is not stupid because it is a healthier alternative to smoking. Ignore the smokers who tease you for using one. They will soon understand that they are the ones who should be harassed for doing a foolish habit.

I don't smoke, and am glad I don't. You don't need cigarettes to get through life, cigarettes are an expensive deadly habit, that can "Brain Wash" a person..making you think you need them!
So kids, never smoke..It's not "cool"..And if my response doesn't persuade you, then I feel sorry for you..
If you choose to, you'll regret that decision sometime down the line for the rest of your life.
Cigarettes are no better then drugs..You can get addicted to cigarettes, the same way you can get addicted to drugs/alcohol.. What makes cigarettes/alcohol so special?..They're legal drugs..
Here's the reason why I think alcohol/cigarettes are legal..It's quite obvious that these legal drugs help control the worlds population..Meaning, people will die from these legal drugs slowly..but surely.

1. i think ciggarets and alchol are legal cause goverment gets huge ammount of money for it.
2. smokers die on avenrage a few years early, this means that on averange a smoker get like 70 instead of 75 this means goverment has to pay 5year less of fundings of the work he did when he was 20-65 this saves alot of money 2.
3. its not done cause as goverment youre less popular and lot of people wont vote on you next time then.
But well i notice most people starting to find smoking stupid at our school of the children 14-18 like only 5% smokes. like 1/2 children ea class and well its kinda sad but most they are the ones laughed at. on one hand thats mean and i dun do it on the other hand am glad its not cool anymore and stupid. this helps children ruining there lives, and yes people of 16+ can smoke during school brakes (14-15) can get them easy.

Nicotine is something you have to maintain when using E cigarettes. Having too much in one day will kill you. Nicotine is only bad when you have too much of it.

It has been 22 days since I had a cigarette. I feel great. I don't think I would need a substitute cancer stick.
Quiting cold turkey it is the way to go.
Two weeks of horrible withdrawal and pains, but in the end it was worth it. I feel 100 times better.

There are many reasons why teenagers smoke, some smoke just for sake of fashion because they believe that smoking is a very trendy activity and they look great while smoking. Some people smoke for other reasons. They may have a lot of stress and pressures because of economic and personal problems. They may be unemployed or working but not making enough money to take care of themselves and their families. They may be homeless, or they may be dealing with alcohol or cocaine/heroin addictions. Some may be in bad marriages or relationships in which there is physical and/or verbal abuse. All these people may smoke to feel relaxed or to give them energy while going through a hard time. Smoking helps the nerves in the brain to relax and as a result the person feels relaxed from the stress.
I started to smoke when I was 16 in high school with couple of friends just to see how it is, then we got addicted to it and we went serious into it. I stopped to smoke this year in February at age of 19 (I'm almost 20) and I really mean STOPPED no way I can get back into it or just think taking another smoke again >.< <333

That and some people start off by using it as a social activity.Some teens sneak out to smoke or skip classes,they make a big group and find a nice spot in town to do that and maybe drinking.
I know because one of them used to be my best friend,we'd go out and even though I didn't smoke I'd come along.....my eyes would water after a while x.X and cough,no one else minded though.
My friend got me to try once and I started smoking it, stared at my friend quizzicaly and said idc what's so great about this.
She told me that I wasn't breathing it in properly lol,either way I don't care,I've refused to try again.It left a horrible taste in my mouth,every time I thought about or saw cigs I'd taste it again for a while.

smoking this ciggarete is less worse for youre health (alot less) but its still bad. Nictione slows down distriction of bad cells and with that you have more chance a cell is going to duplicate non stop and forms a tumor. also thanks to nicotine you blood presure rises which increases chanses on infarcts. also you lose youre fertillity faster when using nictotine.
also nicotine can harm youre baby when you are pregnant altough its less worse then smoking siggarets.

Although I did check out the E-cigarette's around the web and whatnot, and the idea is somewhat appealing to me, the price isn't. Granted I'm weaning myself off of smokes myself at the moment. It's infinitely harder not because of the addiction(that's never an issue because I have the most amazing willpower in the world according to my irl buddies), but rather my near need to multi-task.
Having one in my fingers gives me one extra thing I can do while gaming/reading, and not having that makes me kinda bored. It's hard to explain, but I know it's bad for me and am actively working on quitting. Been sucking on an empty pen tube and twirling it in my fingers as a replacement technique.

smokers are not LOSER's and it has also been proven that if you grew up in a house where both parents smoked it is more likely that you will become a smoker as well. there are numerous reasons why ppl smoke. and all smoker's know that it is bad for them. dont need ppl putting them down because they smoke. maybe thats the reason they smoke in the first place is because of others always putting them down. the ppl that put smoker's down are the ones that are the real LOSER's here, because they do not know the person nor do they know what made them start smoking in the first place and therefore are casting judgement on ppl thay do not personally know or know anything about the person. so stop being LOSER's and casting judgement on ppl you dont know and stop putting them down for it maybe they will beable to quit then.

Remember, some of the rules are still enforced in the Off-Topic section, and regardless of my stance on this particular topic they will be seen to.

Thank you lordalden :)
This thread is just an advertisement explaining the electronic cigarette. I would not consider this thread to be inappropriate because a "drug" rule is not enforced and I am sure this is not a bad influence to under aged users. I would kindly appreciate it that everyone refrains from bizarre debating. Thank you :)

I thought it best for all here that I inject my experiences and opinion on the issues of smoking. As I have been a smoker since approximately age 12, and have actively pursued the horrid habit steadily for more than 40 yrs,(to give you an idea of how long ago that was, a pack of cigarettes cost between 15 and 25 cents) my first-hand knowledge, experience, and opinion may be valuable to some.
First let me reassure you, Obama has absolutely nothing to do with this other than he is now a victim as well.
Secondly, tobacco is legal for the same purposes that alchohol is, it generates a lot of money for some people. However the costs involved for illnesses incurred from either far outweigh any benefits, both in private and governmental sectors.
Third, tobacco products did not start out with carcinogeons as addititves until the late 60's or early 70's when tobacco companies were experimenting on methods to promote their products. The carcinogeons, not the nicotine, are the real killers and maintain the addictive qualities that plague, and victimize, smokers who realy wish to quit, but due to other pressures in their lives or simply a weakened tolerance to these poisons, cannot follow through with the process.
Some people are simply born with addictive traits as well. This complicates many maters in their lives, not just smoking. Yes, nicotine can kill you in massive doses, and has its own addictive qualities as well. But unlike the carcinogeons (sp) it is much easier to pass up.
Also, unlike the added poisons, nicotine itself seldom causes cancer. A inherited gene mutation can be triggered by the nicotine, but for the most part it is the carcinogeons, as in cynide, insecticide, and who knows for sure what else the tobacco companies have pumped over the leaves, or sprayed on their products during production. There are lists, many lists.
Fourth, Now ask yourself why our government has ignored the Food and Drug Admin's ability/will to enforce stringent guidelines to produce a cleaner product for those of us who cannot, or choose not to quit. Also consider the fact that second-hand smoke is fast becoming an issue due for the most part to the carcinogeons, not the nicotine.
Fifth, how much money do you think the tobacco companies use in its lobbing tactics aimed in your representatives' direction to limit lawsuits and hinder any restrictions the Food and Drug Administration may wish to impose on them? I don't think you realy want to know, but I could estimate that the recent finacial program to bail out the banks is pocket change. :rolleyes:
Sixth, please, if you don't smoke, don't pick ONE up. Save your own life, mine is almost expired due to this horrid horrid habit culminated by the greed of the few.
If you do smoke, and you are not yet ill, please make every effort to eliminate them from your immediate soroundings. Yes, you can fight the urge when others who smoke are around you. I've done that in the past, before the nasties were introduced into the product, and prior to my knowledge and subsequent uncontrollable and deadly habit. :(

As I empty my ashtray AGAIN, and light up another potential butt.... I have to say, I did giggle a tad at your philosophy here. The most common word, however, that you used throughout your post, was 'some'. Yes, some of us do this and some of us do that, but many of those in our species try to do what's right for them and their families. How else are we ever going to evolve? Do you think we will evolve? Why, or why not? :p

Maybe I'm not getting it but smoking,drinking and any other vices aren't neccesary for our survival o.o,neither are they enhancing our lifestyle overall.
Whenever someone does something I can't find a sense to I deduce they're bored(nothing better to do).
If I have a problem I usualy solve it by myself,sometimes literaly,I always feel better after some time alone.I guess that's my way of solving things o.0
I've had other things but so far I haven't endangered my well being in any way.

They aren't really aware of it,smoking doesn't kill you imediately,in a few days,or even in a year.By the time they actualy realise it they're already too into it to quit easily.It doesn't really show it's worst parts until it's too late anyway.
If they were actualy conscious of it they wouldn't have started in the first place.

I can relate to that since I've had to stand being in the same room with 5-10 smokers =_=''.Asthmatic or not it's definetly bad for your health.
My parents used to smoke,can't remember what brought on their decision to stop,but I suspect it has to do with my sis and I.

Well, I won't argue that the cost of health concerns does outweigh the cost of e-cigs, however my philosophy on life and death are a bit different than mosts, so I'm not entirely bothered by that aspect of it. My stance on it doesn't change due to that though, I'd rather see no one smoking, despite being one myself currently.

I have recently seen a news flash on the E cigarette. The FDA is warning people about toxins contained in the E cigarette. I seriously believe that the government forced the FDA to fool people into believing such a malicious preference in order to make more money off of tobacco products.

How does evolution have anything to do with this?:confused:
I believe "evolution" here was referring to humanity not as a species evolving, but as a society.
...and I personally do not think humanity as a society will evolve anytime in the next few generations; I just don't think enough people are capable of looking past their own greed, biases (this includes people who are racist, inverted racist [hate other colors because they think other colors hate them], sexist [on both sides] etc), anger and self-interests to do so.
...I also don't think enough people have figured out how to think for themselves to do it (in fact, I'm seeing a lot of people who are more easily persuaded to accept an idea by bad or senseless logic now than I did five years ago)

if you don"t like smoking don't do it
if you can prove it is bad for to a man who lost like 3 fam members cancer in last 5 year, and my grandpa smoked since he was 8, he lived to the odlist out of all of them they said "espistise? or somthing was to blame, then do so now,
and lastly choclate was once also thought to be bad and made agenst the law once in england so why do i care about these thoghts these days on smoking now? guv bs smoking is fine like it.
im proud to say i smoke many cigares a day much like thomes edison it brings a class of some sort out

ok so heres how ive got it pictured and yes its the government
1. you start smoking and get addicted so government raises prices of cigarettes
2. you want to quit and buy something like the e-cig or whatever
3. the government raises the prices of the e-cig to where you cant afford it
4. the goverment lowers prices on cigs
5. you go buy more cigs
thats my philosophy it might not be right but its what i see from news and first hand account i hope everyone doesnt just believe what they are told.
go out there and do some digging yourself dont believe everything someone tells you
p.s. *thats how we got obama as president*

Aside from the fact that its also the Nicotine thats not all that too good for you.. so youre still getting a highly addictive substance that changes your body..
And Ive known people who have been really big smokers, and they tried to quit slowly for years. And it was the quitting cold turkey, that actually did it.

well the e-cigarettes are good if you are addicted real bad and can't just quit(not enough will power) but it's best if you never even taste it...I'm 16 and and most of my friends have had smoked a cigratte(I said 'a' as in one lol).Some of them said that it was ok and not something you'd want all the time while others had nasty headaches and this one guy actually got dizzy and threw up.didn't faint tho XD
I might have been offered to smoke a few times from some not-so-good acquaintances but I never took the offer.The I idea of headaches and throwing up is not that alluring for me.Dunno if they were just looking out for me or were telling the truth but just don't do it in the first place!

smoking isn't good for anything :/
What are the pro's about smoking? I can only think of bad things.
1: expensive
2: bad for your health
Why the heck do people smoke? O.o what's good about it?
Sounds like you just discribed fiesta lol

I have recently updated the thread because I revised my recommendation to the Joye 510.
I despise the term "smoking" when it comes to e cigarettes because these devices produce vapor, not smoke. Vapor and smoke are totally different. I agree that smoking is bad and disgusting. However, "vaping" is a different story.
