yes but Juuls are 60 mg/ml I do believe. Nic salts.
Ah, okay that makes more sense. Well not really sense but you know what I mean.
I can go all day without a vape and it don’t bother me too much...wonder if the same can be said for those vaping salts?
I take fits still of needing to set aside about ten minutes to chain vape. Like cigarettes though I can usually do that, walk away and go get busy for four to six hours depending how life is going, then need to take a "smoke" break. Of course too, if I've nothing any better to do I can find myself nearly autonomously vaping as I breath. It was the same with cigarettes.
I think it started with juul just because I was in high school and that's what everybody was doing,
You illustrate to me rather clearly why the legal age to vape should universally be 21 with strict enforcement in place. There's more you present to me but I'm touching on this a bit. Guess your parents never asked the time worn tried and true question.
"If everybody else took a flying leap of a perilous cliff would you do it too?"
This herd mentality for whatever reason has set into humanity. I'm sure the reasoning at the time possibly had "good" intentions. As John Ray in the 16th century reminds us though, "Hell is full of good meanings and wishes." You couldn't be expected to see the faulting of a whole "modern and enlightened" society though for your youth, I suppose. Or could you be? After all it does boil down to something me &
@The Cromwell have been discussing off and on a while now; personal responsibility and choice.
Let me offer you a bit of illustration for that. I could quite literally be a killer of the sociopath order. I have all the earmarks ticked which could "tell you the story" of my path to being that. I grew up with a lot of physical, mental, emotional abuse. I was told I would not amount to anything. I faced being gas lighted. I heard all this "world of shit" and felt it long enough
I could have believed it. I had to learn to shut off my emotions to survive. It's no easy feat I'll tell you, nor is it easy to stay anchored. The point being I'd been given a full belly of hate in life. How fucked up is it then I learned love?
I also learned that it was
my choice to believe as I chose. No one else can, or will make that choice for me. That is my freedom which can never be relinquished, torn asunder from me. I have the right to choose. Every one of us has that. It above all else makes us divine. And no I'm not some preacher man come to save your soul, no hero either, or saint. I've lived enough crazy shit you don't need to bother. Got all these damn "been there done that" t-shirts I'll never go naked save by choice.
In all of the living I've done, I've also learned we all do need one another. Yet we all need our own individual distance as well. I learned too that I am of value. While I might not be some grand engineer that builds rockets in his sleep, I do have skills, talents, a fucking personality no matter how hard I try not to have. *chuckles* I also figured out I'm loved and not only by my wife and dog. I also love. So yes, I'm valued and I have amounted to far more than the sum of my parts.
Also, I was living with my parents who are superrr against vaping, and juul was by far the most discreet option.
Boy, were you my son I would see to it you had the fear of a daddy in you. You would never know around which corner I lurked, waiting on you to fuck up so I could put a foot up your ass. .... And no I won't apologize for that as I view it as stating discipline. Had I, could I have human children ... they damn sure would know the "rules of the road". They would know they had a dad that loved them, gave a shit enough to know what they were up to 99.98 percent of the time. I'd be that way not to stalk, at least not in any nefarious or "negative" way. My kids wouldn't fear monsters, they'd fear me but out of respect because I eat monsters, fart lightning bolts, am larger than Life or Death. I'd be daddy. Of course, I'd also be a kid's best buddy too and we'd gang up on mom. Ha!
I apologize overall if this has read like a sermon or "I know what's best for you" lecture. I don't know what is best for any of us. I can make a half way educated guess but ultimately admit it is just that, a guess. What I do know though is you've family, even beyond what you consider family and maybe in spite of them. We watch out for each other here. But we don't make excuses and forgive me if I wrap this up abruptly. It seems I'm posting to you as means to procrastinate, create an excuse to keep me from doing my writing. We here take choice because for us it comes weather we like to have it or not. So with that, excuse me.
I have to, ...
