6. Yeah, but anyone stupid enough
to use such a thing shouldn't really be passing on genes anyway.

Somewhere Darwin is nodding in his grave.

13. I don't have much room to talk, as I've fought alcoholism for years
But there will be a lot of people killed who weren't the stupid ones using this device. Liquid alcohol gives you cues to when you've had enough and there's also a limit as to how much you can drink. There's going to be a lot of people who don't know that they're drunk because all the signs are missing, and then they'll get out in their cars...

I may be a stupid drunk, but there's no fucking way you'd ever get me to even try this thing.

4. Remember when these were called bongs?
They were made of glass and were a hell of a lot cheaper.

14. "...a hell of a lot cheaper..." & maybe gave ya a fuzzy feeling next day
as opposed to some kind of hangover that feels like thrusting hot pokers in your eyes would make you feel BETTER...
and it's what? only 3 grand? yeah I'll take the bong any day, and hell-even a vaporizer is cheaper than this frat boy drinking tool-that's what it is-a drinking tool for drinking tools

5. Alcohol and pressurized oxygen...
I can't wait to see the headlines when someone decides that isn't enough of a chemical enhancement and tries to light up a smoke while using it.

12. Hunter Thompson has 4 at his house*
Wonder what the hangover affects are like?

Also, I wonder what the ETOH inhallation does to the alveolar tissue? Booze rips the shit out of stomach lining, and it is 400 times tougher than lung tissue.











*actually, I do not know that, I just made it up. But, I would not be suprised at all.
