I fucking love smoking and yet.... don't. I, like the red head, just am NOT habitual. I don't know what to say. I cannot and will not pick up habits. The other day I was with a friend and fucking partying man, old school biblical shit. Jager bombs, gallons of rum n' coke, Bud Light, vikes, cocaine, and suddenly being i'm with "like minds", I smoked a half of pack of Little Cigars (my absolute fave, and stronger than fuck), with full inhale, which alot cannot handle. Fucking loved it, had a great time. And that was a fucking Thursday. HAH!

I smoked a half a pack, as a recreational smoker, loved it, and had no cravings next day. Never have. Do you have to do it for like months and years to get addicted to it? I love the nicotine, but I just don't crave them. I kinda do, but I crave the flavor, not the fix.

Am I weird, or just not advanced enough on tobacco?

I've always been curious about e-cigs. I like the nicotine, and like the distraction of having something in my mouth (insert joke here). So how does one get into e cigs?

It's a rabbit hole... Best bet? Try http://www.reddit.com/r/Vaping101

You can keep it simple, or turn it into a full blown hobby/addiction all unto itself.

I've been on both ends. I'm somewhere in the middle.. I have 3 higher end devices, and use rebuildable atomizers and shit. Find what works for you, man. A year later, and I'm glad I made the switch.

Just to try it out, I bought a starter pack of the blu E-cigs. Obviously they're the highest profiled, and really were the first off the line. Plus the black pipe, plus Miami neon blue end is kinda cool.

Tried it out for the first time this morning on the way to school for the nic boost, after an all fucking nighter work-wise (don't even ask, ugh, Law classes) and I gotta say it's one of the most odd/interesting experiences of my life. First off, I hope that the blu's are not representative of all vaping. There's not even close to the amount of tobacco flavor that there is in a cigarette, but especially say a Marlboro Red or my Little Cigars. On first try, I miss that big tobacco flavor. The nicotine is fine, but they're not all that flavorful tbh.

I was using the Classic Tobacco starter kit, although it's not a bad flavor, it's definitely not a regular cigarette. On the way home, I decided to stop into a gas station and see if they had any additional flavor packs. They did, and I picked by one of their Vivid Vanilla packs. As soon as I open these things, you can smell this delicious vanilla smell, almost like that delicious French Vanilla coffee taste that a good Cigar can have. My taste buds immediately perked up.

I take off the Classic Tobacco, and throw on the Vanilla. Now although it still isn't a strong tobacco flavor, these things were FAR MORE enjoyable, and tasty.

In the end though, I can't help but to again say... what's the point? Without the lack of a realistic tobacco flavor, which is why I like smoking, not so much the nicotine. You need something that closely resembles that, plus the interesting flavors. The weird thing, as someone who has smoked from regular fire, as well as the steam from a bong, e-cigs are neither. It tastes and feels like stage smoke, honestly. If you've ever inhaled stage smoke, it's almost identical, which leaves it weird.

I'm not downing it, it's just a first day. BUT, in the end what is the point without a real tobacco flavor? Exactly how I used them. In the morning, or in mixed company with poor sleep, stress, downing sedative drugs or too much booze... these e-cigs are a great way for an electronic, low-risk, easily chargable and renewable, cheaper way to have a completely odorless nicotine fix when you need them without the distraction or bad smell that turns people off.
