My kid and his friends vaping, etc.

And the worst part is you look like a complete douche doing it.

At least smoking looked cool once upon a time.

Nobody has ever made smoking look as cool as the drummer for Type O Negative at 0:14.

I almost reported this post before realizing the like button was elsewhere.
I'm completely dumbfounded that I agree with pretty much everything in this post.
I'm going to take the time to do a re-evaluation of my life.
Thanks Thriller.

Thriller has had two posts that I don’t believe originated from his keyboard. This was one. The other was when he complained about rap music and it’s profanities and said you should listen to country. Totally thought he was trying to parody CJ or something.

Only two posts he’s never hated on anyone right of himself.

Smh. Yes, my thoughts are well known. Yes, I firmly believe them. And if you firmly believed them wouldn’t you speak up too?
 
Ah the kid will be fine, I've done nothing but drink and take drugs for the last 20 years and I'm still handsome...

My son is 16, has had a job for 4 months, does pretty well in school, and is involved in a music program. I think(pretty sure) he and his friends also vape and may do other stuff. He just made a "secret" hangout room under the stairs in my basement and they painted it. Some of the "wall art" includes a vape pen, a big mushroom and probably some other stuff but I haven't inspected closely. They have taken to "hiking" or hammocking in the mountains as their form of recreation. I'm concerned.

Should I hide my weed better?

Yeah, if you suspect it I'd talk to him about it. And if you catch him, definitely drop the hammer. Weed is fairly harmless, vaping not so much.

He sounds like a great kid, but even great kids need to be set straight every once in a while.

I'm no longer convinced nicotine is any worse than caffeine.

Nicotine itself is not. Caffeine is, I believe, more addictive, actually. However, the associated chemicals from cigarettes are worse than those from coffee. Part of the point of vaping was an attempt to separate the addiction from the poison.

Should go without saying. What did that doctor in the 80's say, something like nicotine doesn't cause cancer, it's the tar that's killing people.

I haven't read enough to be certain but it sounds to me like the stigma should go away.

Although the stereotype of a vaper is a millennial/whatever comes after, the largest group of people who vape is actually middle-aged men who are using it to quit smoking - like me.
