I wouldn't put it past them

I used to smoke, and adopted vape when blu came out around 2009... I really tried to get used to it, but it was like a LED candle or a video fireplace or camping in the back yard.

So I really tapered off the vaping and didn't touch real cigarettes at all anymore, but the thing that really ended any desire to vape at all for me was a couple years ago when the vape thing really exploded, I had multiple friends and other members of social circles who got all fucking fully engrossed in the vape thing and basically wouldn't shut the fuck up about it, ever. Every conversation was about how they were getting "mods" and none of them had any idea how electricity works but suddenly they're talking about ohms, I'm an electronics engineer and had to endure hearing every possible misconception a human being could have about a topic I happen to have professional familiarity with.. my roommate was ordering all these bottles of nicotine extract and other shit and taking it all super seriously like nothing on Earth mattered more than just LIVING THE VAPE and ...

it was so unbelievably fucking annoying I threw away my stupid blu cig shit and never wanted to get anywhere near anything vape related ever again.

So I guess I can thank vapes, and "vape-heads" for making me quit smoking and not take up vaping. It really is lame as hell, I'd rather if people just smoked cigarettes instead because at least there didn't seem to be MEGA CIGARETTE-HEAD ULTRA ENTHUSIASTS who wouldn't shut the fuck up about their shit, everyone who just smoked regular cigarettes would just.. smoke them and not have to make it central to their very existence.
