FYI (because I had to look it up) Juuling is just vaping with a smaller type of vape....
like, say, a Juul?
Sure but I don't vape so the only thing Juul means to me is Yule....
I was just teasing :)
Juul is pronounced like jool or maybe jewel. I can see how non-americans can misinterpret that though

Na, juuls use a salt crystal delivery system, vapes use an oil base concentrate.
Salt nic is not exclusive to Juul, and only weed vapes use an oil. Vape juice is propylene glycol and vegetable glycerol with flavoring and nicotine.
(Source here is me, went to vapes to successfully quit smoking back when there was more threading than a 510, when mods were a milled tube and a button or flashlight guts, with an rca connector on top so you could switch between different thread types. It sucks what its become, it was really helpful for me to quit nicotine completely by having a vape.)
You are very wrong about only weed vapes using an oil, but that's not the point anyways, so...
I think you're misunderstanding - weed vapes can use oil (and more, such as dry flower), but nic vapes are not oil based.
So only weed vapes would use an oil. Not that weed vapes are exclusively oil. Based on your reply I am assuming thats what's being confused here.
I have made nic vape before. It is suspended in a glycol/glycerin compound. That's what's in a cartridge. I believe other nic vape products are not, but it is very much available.
Propylene glycol and vegetable glycerol, which is what I said in the comment you replied to.
They are not oils.

Bruh, seeing gam gam playing patty cake at 97 is priceless. Fix this graph lol
There are definitely patty cake cool bumps when you become a parent of a toddler and a grandparent of a toddler. In those moments your coolness is off the chart.
If a 100 yo is still living alone he is metal as fuck. If a 100yo is breathing he is already cool, anything they do is already a win
Henry Kissinger...
There's nothing cool about having to live alone because the person you been married to for 50+ years died and you can't bring yourself to meet soemone else out of heartache, even after 10 or 20 years.
It is pretty cool though if you do manage to meet someone else, when you're 90 and now you're popping viagra like candy.
Depends if they're just wasting away alone or still active and healthy.
Fuck yeah, juul it up old fart
(Seeing the birthday spike.)
Nice.
Best infographic ever, I know what to do with my life now.
Drop in, let's go
That half-pipe in the graph looks very tempting. I can't wait until I'm 80 so I can be a cool skateboarder again.
people can afford to live alone?
I did for about two months before COVID, then immediately needed a roommate to afford to live again.
I'm 62. I retired in January. In February, my 30-year marriage ended. I'm living alone for the first time in decades, and I never really did it very long before (a few years in my late 20s. It's very strange. at this age.
Wowβthat is a lot of major life events crammed into 2025. Be nice to yourself. Often.

Skateboarding is never anything but maximum coolness at any age.
I was wondering why there was a spike at 70 but then i realized
I disagree with the "complaining about young people" line having coolness increase proportionally with age: when I was a young adult, I often joked about kids these days in a way that seemed to get a lot of laughs. The humour was in the fact that I was a young person talking about young people as if I wasn't one of them (and beneath that was me making light of the text that, likely due to being autistic, I have always felt isolated from my peer group).
Anyway, I got good at leveraging this for humour, but as I aged, the joke potential expired: I was too old for there to be any irony in saying "kids these days", but not old enough for it to be cool to complain about young people.
On the bright side, I am sufficiently old to be able to torment young people by misusing their slang. It's most likely effective if you use the slang in a mostly right way, so I enjoy the challenge of needing to actually understand correct usage of new slang. Amusingly, studying current slang as an outsider is a skill I'm well versed in, given that I had to do this even when I was young.
Juuling?
Patty-cake does not reach maximum coolness at about age 9.
I remember patty-cake games being super popular in elementary school, and it switched to hacky sack games in late middle school through high school. I think the graph is accurate.
Divorced living alone at 30 and this meme just lifted my spirits a little bit

Those were the days. Skateboard competitions, scouring the streets and malls at 3 am. This was my board. Custom design by Wee Willy Winkles in Canada.
Here is me back in the day riding it.

As a person who quit smoking before vaping was created, I wholeheartedly support anyone who vapes as a way to get off cigarettes. Those thingsβll kill ya.
Is drinking age not a big thing in other countries? In the US there would be a drop from 19/20 birthdays and a spike at 21 that drops down again for 22.
