    That half-pipe in the graph looks very tempting. I can’t wait until I’m 80 so I can be a cool skateboarder again.

        Not that old. Juul isn’t even that old. When I used vaping to quit smoking before stopping both, you had to have a basic understanding of electronics for mechanical and box mods to make coils and such. Tanks weren’t that great at that point so I used a drip tip which I did actually enjoy at the time. I recognize this might sound like being like hipster or something, but its crazy seeing where vaping is now.

            Damn. Guess its been longer than I thought. Cause juul didn’t become a thing until after I had stopped. I remember other early vapes tobacco companies were trying to break in with but they were disgusting and the flavors didn’t even come close to as good as what others had been already been making.

              I remember it being big news in the vaping world when walmart started carrying vapes. I went out and bought some awful eGo pen and the world’s worst tasting juice in 2.4% nicotine. I managed to get through the little 20ml bottle of sour apple but the java flavor was so awful it remained my backup ‘it’s this or withdrawals’ juice for the better part of a decade. I think I picked withdrawals most of the time.

                I guess I was lucky in that regard. There was a shop near me that had a whole bunch of bottles out that you could try before buying.

    Those were the days. Skateboard competitions, scouring the streets and malls at 3 am. This was my board. Custom design by Wee Willy Winkles in Canada.

    Here is me back in the day riding it.

        A Toft design, 8 wheeler. Custom bearings, wheel wells, lifters, extended trucks. Was made for me to go faaaaast down hills but I could also do most tricks as well. Helps when your friend has a skateboard factory.

      I think it’s a type of vape, but it was popular a while ago and I haven’t heard much since. Maybe this is an old meme?

      Edit: quick search with an AI result appearing to pull from a pdf from a site against kids getting tobacco: JUUL’s popularity peaked in late 2018 and early 2019, reaching over 70% of the US e-cigarette market. Since then, its market share has declined, falling to 42% by July 2020 and 36% by March 2022.

      Yea, needs a new upswing at 70 for “living alone” like, it’s potentially sad, but just being able to live on your own gets more impressive the older someone is

    I would change the ‘complaining about young’ people with ‘complaining about everything’.
