The title of this post is a brand name. For e-cigarettes. Yes. Electronic cigarettes. They deliver a smokeless, nicotine-laced vapor when you take a drag, and the end lights up like a real cigarette. You can exhale the vapor like smoke, but it dissipates quickly and leaves no odor, and of course there are no nasty additives or tar, because it's NOT SMOKE. But it feels and looks like smoke when you inhale it. It works with replaceable cartridges, and you can choose the level of nicotine--high, medium, low, or zero. They also come in some wack flavors; in addition to "tobacco", you can choose apple, cherry, strawberry, chocolate, coffee, vanilla, or mint. (No menthol, but maybe the mint comes close.) And you can use them anywhere--smoking bans do not apply, because, as noted, there is no smoke.
I freaking LOVE technology. I've been waiting for something like this for years--wait, no I haven't. I never even dreamed such a thing could be possible. It's like a miracle. I am overcome.
Will someone please talk me out of buying one of these?

I know I *should* talk you out of buying them, but I am way too curious.
Leave it to you to find the absolute most retard/most genius combo on the planet. I am beyond impressed.

I suppose you have to buy batteries for these things. Too much work. One can still buy candy cigarettes and they were super fun in the old days. They aren't illegal either....at least I don't think they are.....
I feel the same as Hilary. And I love nicotine.

Au contraire, mon mere. The e-cigarette comes with an adapter you can plug into your car.
There is a major design flaw with this though. It's looks will draw unnecessary negative attention. If it were made to look like a drinking straw or a lollipop or a binky the "everywhere smoker" would be left alone. And while they're at it why not give it a name with more positive associations? Like "Sweet Nic" or "Happy Straw".

No, no. the whole POINT is that it looks and acts like a cigarette. It's for smokers who want to smoke without really smoking. Also, annoying people with it is half the fun.
I got the E-cigarette, and regardless of any of your opinions or thoughts, the fact is that it works, The taste feel and nicotine are all there, it took a 9 year 3 pack of reds a day smoker and turned me into a non-smoker in 3 weeks, it's not immediate but if you actually try it's healthy and BAD ASS!!!! I am 22 and I urge anyone who reads this to buy an 'E-cig' and save your life, not to mention countless dollars on cigarettes if life isn't enough
In response to Anon # 2, the battery is included and it charges easier than your cell
In repsonse to Anon #4, you can't replace a cigarette with a binky/straw or else we'd all be chewing straws and the stock on binkys would be platinum
I know this post is old but I got one and I loves it. It's easier on my non-smoker husband, too.
