Just a reminder, if you smoke regularly... The end of your life will you be slowly suffocating for several years as you hallucinate from lack of oxygen grasping for breath. I've witnessed it and it is a horrible way to die. Keep your lungs clean folks, trust me.

@freemo Yeah, and the vaping is even more dangerous because of how much "healthier" it seems. I'm in my mid thirties and already starting to struggle to get enough oxygen, even though I quit more than five years ago.

@LouisIngenthron vaping im sure is dangerous just in very different ways. If you avoid the cheap stuff that isnt regulated you likely wont get any sort of COPD. But you may very well find the your consuming many times more the nicotein and causing all sorts of other health problems.

@freemo Well, yeah, but also I vaped way back before it was cool and common, back when the tech was very iffy. I think that did more damage than the later, safer, stuff.

@LouisIngenthron Certainly possible. But I wouldnt worry about it too much. the bases for vaping have been pretty consistent even from the early days. The stuff we found out hurts your lungs was counterfeit imported stuff that was well known to be harmful and was a later development... I would suspect if you arent currently suffering you probably were fine.
