    Don’t know how many times this keeps having to be said but nicotine is not the part of smoking that is addictive, it’s the habit. Nicotine is as addictive as caffeine.

    The habit of biting my nails is why I haven’t been able to stop for nearly 30 years, nothing else.

    It’s why pipe and cigar smokers don’t chain smoke… because nicotine isn’t there to hold them to it.

    I agree, ban single use vapes, but acting like kids get addicted to vaping because of nicotine is bullshit. They do it because they think it’s cool, just like they did for cigarettes.
