  • I vaped for quite a while. Got a bit addicted to the tinkering and the juice hunting. It can be a fun hobby which probably makes it a bad way to quit if you’re anything like me.

    I worked myself down on the nicotine levels until I was at zero.

    Relapsed back to cigarettes after not having vaped for a few months due to stress.

    Finally stopped cold turkey. Didn’t go back to vaping just decided it was time.

    Things that ultimately helped:

    • Having a reason to quit that I could remind myself of daily as an affirmation.
    • My partner was also quitting, I needed her to stop and needed to be there to support her efforts.

    If I was going to do it again, I’d probably look into Fum or something similar. Probably add some nicotine gum at the start to ease the chemical addiction.




  • 2018 Subaru Forester

    It might be a bit more updated than most, but in general less smart than most cars today.

    • Still have to press a button on the key to unlock the doors, or use the convenient key.
    • Need to put the key into the ignition to start.
    • Doors do not automatically lock out unlock.
    • Manual parking break.
    • Rear door is 100% manual (if you didn’t count un/lock with key fob).
    • Basic Bluetooth functionality.
    • Equipped with OnStar, and Sirius.
    • Shipped with 3G cellular, which no longer works. They do offer a free upgrade, I never bothered.

    By my own assessment, it’s the dumbest modern car you can get.
