I wonder if it was a school administrator misunderstanding what vaping is. Like “I know when someone vapes they just exhale water vapor so they must just inhale water vapor too!” And of course the student would go along rather than risk a potentially greater penalty for actually inhaling something illegal.

Supposedly it was caramel-flavored water, not nicotine. Though why you would vape without nicotine or THC or something is beyond me.

What’s that? A flimsy excuse for me to talk about Hamilton? I’ll take it!
