When I needed to pee I made a bee line to the bathrooms and tried to get out of there ASAP, as within 60 seconds the smoke was so thick it was hard to find the door. And that is not an exaggeration! I begged the principal to have at least one no smoking bathroom. He refused. The girls could only smoke in the second floor bathrooms in the school.

Walking outside it seems 80% of the students had a lit cancer stick puffing away. And most of the teachers as well.
I'm sure that a lot of folks think "vaping is completely safe" which might be the case if it was distilled water, but even if the vape juice does not include nicotine (lots don't) they are still full of "flavors" at the very least. And I'm sure a lot of it is from China where ANYTHING could be put into the juice.
