You passing out from huffing on a vape is your own, wierd, unique reaction to nicotine due to your own misuse. I can pass out if I huff a glass of water and that would likely kill me. You can slam 20 energy drinks and make your heart explode, you can eat too much food and die, you can drink too much alcohol and get alcohol poisoning. That is all equivalent to someone who apparently has zero nicotine tolerance taking rips on a vape and being mad they got light headed. That is your own fault. That being said, I am totally down with legal weed and illegal nicotine, however, weed impairs your judgment for hours, nicotine only makes you a bit light headed for a minute, and only if you don't have a tolerance. I say this as I rip my 12% vape with zero effect.
I'm not mad...
Oh maybe there's some confusion. A 2% nicotine salt vape is equivalent to a 20% nicotine vape. So imagine doing a vape twice as strong in the morning and you get a good idea of why it caused me to be light-headed.
You're also slightly confused over my seriousness. I'm not seriously suggesting we make nicotine illegal. I just wondered why it's legal and weed isn't but at the same time I don't really care.
I guess my real reason for posting is I'm bored and lonely.
