Is it just me, or did vaping completely kill the "cool/masculine" aesthetic of smoking?

Obviously, smoking is bad for you, and it's good that fewer people are doing it. But the switch to pods is kind of hilarious. Cigarettes always carried that old-school, masculine, rebellious image. Now? People are hooked on brightly colored vapes that look like highlighters and taste like blue raspberry. It’s crazy how the danger is completely masked just because it smells nice and comes in a pretty package, but let's be honest holding a flashing vape pod just doesn't hit the same.
