First of all, a hat tip to Uncle Ollie (@OllieAbabwa), whose niece’s name is Phoebe.
Second of all, do you think there’s money to be made by making an inhaler that looks like a Juul? I know e-cig’s are in a tough spot right now culturally, with people dying and all, but:
- If we figure out that they’re safe, let’s circle back to this.
- If they aren’t, in fact, safe, it will only make vaping even cooler, which will in turn make asthmatics look badass while they suck down their lung medicine.
Third of all, to be clear, I don’t have asthma. I wanted to get ahead of that narrative before I get chased out of some college basketball arena this winter and the legion of NIT fans defending me on Twitter cries out, “Stop! He has asthma!” My lungs are fine. I’m just a bit out of shape.
Fourth of all, not that there’s anything wrong with having asthma. As a previous bully of one friend of mine who used to have asthma (No, it wasn’t Ollie, his lungs are fine too, and it was in good fun, I swear!), I have been corrected by the afore-linked video. Having asthma does not make someone a dweeb. Let me say that plainly once more, to leave no doubt: Having asthma does not make someone a dweeb.
Fifth of all, that Juul/inhaler thing’s a good idea, right?
