Creative Vaping

For those of you who have no idea what vaping is, let me educate you. It's "smoking" electronic, or e-cigarettes. It's a big thing for teens and young people. In Georgia, where I live, there are Vape Shops everywhere. You can get these e-cigarettes in all kinds of flavors. That's part of what makes it attractive to these people. Unfortunately, it's not safe. There are cancer-causing chemicals in these things.

My teenage son came home from school the other day and told me about a kid who got in trouble because he was vaping. "He put the liquid in a flash-drive and smoked it," he said.

I've heard of using pipes, but not flash-drives. I looked this up online. I wanted to see if this kid was being creative, or if others were doing it, too.

What my son was talking about is called, juuling. People vape through a device that looks like a flash-drive, but it's not. It's very small. They can conceal it in their pockets, take a hit, and blow the "smoke" into their arm. Kids are doing this in the classroom.

Something else parents need to worry about!

Have you ever heard of vaping? If you are a teacher, have you had problems with this in your classrooms?

    1. People think they're so cool blowing smoke out their mouths. They don't realize how much they're hurting themselves.

  2. Knew what it was, but never heard of the flash drive rip off version. Some kids need a good smack upside the head.

    1. I didn't know about the flash drive version, either.

  3. I actually just read an article in the last week about the dangers of vaping. Never heard of the small flash-driving smoking tool though. One of my daughter's best friends took up smoking and it breaks my heart. Glad my daughter doesn't do any of that.

    1. I am hoping my kids won't, either. My daughter has friends that smoke. She admonishes them for it.

  4. I saw that thing with the flash drive. On TV. I have not seen it in class. I will now be keeping an eye out. I had thought (perhaps just hoped) that smoking was on its way out. Apparently not.

    1. I've seen more smoking in movies, too. It sounds like the tobacco industry was complaining about the bad publicity it was getting and is working with the media to get more business.

      Delete
    2. Well I have seen an online store that sells E-cigarettes and they claim that it helps overcome the addiction of cigarettes. Its name is Vappo.com (Online USA Vape Store) what do you think about that?

  12. I know a few vapers but they are all former smokers (and most are firefighters). But it’s nasty.


    I have decided to consolidate my two blogs (one is more professional) as I can’t see any reason to keep working on them both. In a strange way this feels like I’m coming out of the closet as I haven’t written about my livelihood. Most of my posts from now on will be at www.thepulpitandthepen.com

    You’re welcome to stop by.

  15. Not just young ones, people of all ages (my friends 95 year old grand-father included) are vaping here in England.

    Something that became popular when smoking was banned in all public places (vaping is allowed). There are now concerns over how damaging they may be too health and many public places have now banned them.

  16. Oh yes, I know about Juuls. (So dumb, in my opinion.) Two of my three older kids (both still in college) vape. I honestly don't get the craze. It causes popcorn lung, for gosh sake. I think it's just a phase they're both going through - excuse, they're stressed out because of college, etc... I hope they both stop soon. Side note: I chuckled when your son called it a flash drive. Kind of looks like one.

  17. I saw it a lot in France. It's truly an ugly experience to watch. Here we are trying to rid our air of pollutants, and people are sucking in stuff like propylene glycol. Oh well, if I had a young person trying to find a career path, I'd suggest pulmonology. They're going to be in great demand.

  19. ugh - yes I hear about it all the time, but I’m at the high school level. I hate it - and they think it’s not as bad as smoking. they’re clueless!

    sorry I haven’t been around in a while - hope all is well with you! I’ll be down in June for some baseball and doing an arts & crafts fair in gwinnett - maybe we can get together!
