My story is a little different than most. See, I quit smoking a few years ago. I was rolling my own cigs, and had just bought a big bag of tobacco, tubes and a rolling machine. But I kept seeing commercials on TV about people having strokes, heart attacks, amputations, etc from smoking and one day I just said, no, that's not happening to me. I put the tobacco on top of my fridge, finished the smokes I had rolled, and never touched it again. Now, I bummed a few cigarettes here and there, but for the most part remained tobacco free. At the end of last year, I was attending beauty school. I'm a man, but my goal was to go on and get my barbers license. That hasn't happened and I don't think it will. But I was attending school with a bunch of teeny boppers, which I guess I should have expected. I'm in my 30's, and teeny boppers annoy the shit out of me to a point that I cannot even accurately describe. Not every young person, just the shallow stupid ones. One of them in particular mouthed off to me because of my opinions over certain rap artists. So I got really stressed out to the point I needed something, but did not want to go back to cigarettes. A friend of mine had recently started vaping, and suggested I give it a try. I did, and I found that I enjoyed the flavors as much as the nicotine. Near as I can tell from Facebook posts, I started vaping a week or so before last Christmas.
