Fake Cigarettes for legal indoor smoking for addicts

The Super Smoker is electric; it lights up; it releases "harmless" vapor; it has nicotine in it. It costs 79 pounds, which is near 160 dollars today (May, 2008). I don't know what to think of it.

The pharmaceuticals companies have been jumping over themselves in the last 12 months to get the studies for these devices completed and out the door with the big 'SAFE' rubber stamp on them. This is the first one I've seen available to buy. Think I'll stick to my rollups...

"or you can just get the zero nicotine variety if you want to be cool" LOL.

"Smoking" fake cigarettes to be cool is the equivalent of white urban kids listening to hardcore rap so they can call themselves "gangsta".

So these pay for themselves in what, a few years?

Upvote for this being a complete friggen waste of time and effort.

And also with the pathetic "or you can just get the zero nicotine variety if you want to be cool"... yeah, because cool people smoke.

Anyone who takes up smoking these days, with the knowledge we have is a complete and utter idiot, plain and simple.

If you're a smoker and you take offense to that, tough, it's a ridiculously dangerous and harmful addiction that has the major effect of you becoming a burden on the rest of us when you're dying of cancer... thanks for that.

^ I've had about all the "I'd like to punch that cow" and "Go make me a sandwich whore" and "I hope she gets raped by her uncle" type comments I can handle.

Go do some bag work, wack off, take a run....do whatever you have to do to work out your frustrations with women. But lay off the frat boy bullshit.

spoco2says...

Bravo Tofumar, bravo indeed. Those kinds of comments really are not necessary around here, and I'll also take it upon myself to say the same to anyone who does so here too... together we can make a difference (tm)(r)(c)

Oh us smokers aren't really a burden, Spoco. We pay 10-15 cents per butt, an enourmous tax contribution that far outstrips our burden on the health care system. If you want to take that tack, I'd go after fat. Us smokers get lung cancer which most often rapidly metastasizes into brain cancer. Takes a couple of months and then it's just the cost of a hole in the ground. Sedentary individuals with high fat and calorie intakes get sick and struggle on for years 'burdening' you. You should thank smokers for their tax contributions, their quick expiration, and the fact that they make everyone else feel do damn superior.

It's a high tax as well it should be, the money (at least here in Australia) gets used for campaigns to try to inform people as to the dangers of starting smoking, the benefits of quitting, and the harm on others (I cry a little inside when I see mothers smoking over their prams containing their babies), and then also the care and respite for those who die from the myriad of diseases. In this 1992 report (just one of the early links I came across) from Australia, the cost on the country is calculated at 10 times the amount actually collected via tax from cigarettes, so don't go assuming that what you pay for your fags absolves you from any and all costs associated with your eventual disease and death. Plus also, it's not just a monitory game, it's all about quality of life, why would you intentionally kill yourself, the effect on others etc. etc. etc.

And yes those that become obese through laziness and terrible food do fit into a similar bucket, but it differs in that most get that way gradually through eating a bit too much over and over. Eating is something we do NEED to survive, eating badly is something that people really need to work at, absolutely, but eating is beneficial and necessary for us to live. Smoking has ZERO benefits at all, there is NO good reason AT ALL to start... or for that matter continue.
