I enjoy passing by people having my blu half out of its pack, and just vaping it like that, cotten heads give the most strangest faces. (Cottenhead= old ladies)

Yeah i was the same way, i'd try to hide it while taking a drag but now its no big deal

It is getting more popular. I just had someone ask me where to get them.
I heard someone talking about them in a smoking area.
It's been on TV now, ads and news.

It is kinda funny still, even in the car, but I don't mind as much as when I first got it.

It will get to the point where people will be more interested in where you got them so they can order them for their friend or partner who stinks all the time.

I have had no problems vaping in non-smoking restaurants and cafes, and people often come up to me wanting more information about e-cigs, which I am happy to give them. They usually walk away having tried a flavor or two of mine and the URL to Cigana's website. My main piece is a Cigana elite, which has an orange LED, but no one domestically has mistaken it for an analog, although it did confuse some folks in Jamaica when I was vaping there a few weeks ago. I do have weird ideas about where it is and isn't appropriate to vape that I didn't consider before now:

I vape at:
my desk at work
non-smoking restaurants and cafes
buses, trains, and airports, and airplanes
the locker room in my gym (oh, heck yeah!)

I don't vape:
while walking or standing
while shopping
in meetings at work
at banquet dinners or other formal events (though I may soon reconsider this, since I have an executive holiday party coming up and it is getting COLD outside!)
in temple
in the waiting room at the doctor's office
while running on the treadmill at the gym

My new pink V4L just arrived yesterday, and it has a blue LED, so I may soon be comfortable using that in more public places than I felt using the Cigana Elite.

I KNOW exactly what you mean!! The first time I used my EVO in public, I felt downright silly. It kinda felt like I was pretend smoking, but after I got used to it, it felt totally normal. At the time I was still smoking regular cigs, but then I suddenly realized that I didn't like them any more and that they stunk way worse than normal!!! GREAT, HUH???

I like to walk up to groups of people who are "smoking and joking", and break out my Silver Bullet. I look around innocently while taking a big vape, and wait for the questions. For some reason I like that uncomfortable lull in the conversation, that pause between the time everyone notices, and the first person finally says something. Some of the looks and reactions I get are hilarious.

why'd you think it looks like doing drugs?

[mrjaguar]

bah. I vape everywhere I go, if someone has a problem, they'll let me know and I'll stop. I answer LOTS of questions, give out a lotta cards for various sites, and occasionally I'll loan a battery and give a few carts out if it's someone I know. (like people at work.)
