Some Fundamental Truths I've Learned About Vaping (so far)



vaping is vaping.

It is not "smoking" it is not e-smoking. vaping is it's own unique and honestly, wonderful thing... It should not be demeaned by being associated with the nastiness that is smoking.



P.I.F.

In the coarse of your vaping life... you will inevitably buy stuff you don't like, or will upgrade and be left with stuff you don't use... Having a backup or 2 is nice... but beyond that... where you can, Pay It Forward.



You don't know what you want/need

Most new vapers have preconceived ideas about what they want/need from vaping... or what devices or liquids they want/need... They don't. Positive you want a cigarette sized PV? Try something bigger... Absolutely sure you need 24mg juice? Get some 12, just to be safe... remember, what you don't use/like... PIF



It's about the ones you don't smoke

You don't have to quit smoking to start vaping, The 2 are not mutually exclusive... Likewise, you don't have to quit vaping if after months without cigarettes, you slip up and have one... Give vaping a try... quit smoking if/when you can and don't worry if you slip up... Remember, it's not about the ones you do smoke... it's about the ones you don't.



There are a lot of people out there, who have no idea what a PV is

And their reactions can range from curiosity to hostility, to awe that you are doing "that" in public... even if they don't realize that "that" is not the elicit activity they think it is. LOL

But that shouldn't stop you... Vape Proud... Only way people will learn what vaping is is if they see, what it is... if someone has a puzzled look, take the time to explain it... Don't assume that they'll figure it out... But don't be an apologist either...
