100+ Most Annoying Things About Vaping

Status
Not open for further replies.
Saw this somewhere while I was looking for something. Thought it was kinda funny and could use a similar spot on ECF. Here are some examples from the thread mixed in with a few of my own:

1) an accessory kit that makes a vaper look like a drug user
2) people choking and waving away your "smoke" from the air
3) false claims about how long a prefilled carto lasts
4) mod envy
5) trying to keep up with the hobbyist habit with a part-time, minimum wage job
6) the FDA

what are your vaping related peeves?

My vaping woes are the same as yours... Though, I think the most annoying thing for me is people asking to "try it out". Kinda grosses me out. While I do try to get everyone who smokes tobacco to try e-ciggs, I don't prefer their lips on mine lol.

I don't know... I find some of the reviewers quite charismatic and funny. And some of them pack enough information in to keep you watching. But you have to have a reason to be talking for that long - you can't just make them 1/2 hour long because 'that's how long they are'.

A few good exceptions, but on average: too much gravy, not enough meat.

Purely a judgment call based on the person asking. Besides my immune system needs practice.

Greed:
Have Pedro make you a Caravela for free for your friend with cancer. Try to sell it a bit later for lots of cash(there was no sick friend).


Another guy trying to trade a freaking spot on the Caravela list for a nice mech mod. He lost his spot when Pedro learned about it. At least he got what he deserved.

Those two are my biggest peeves, in fact I was standing out front of work the other day vaping and a lady walked by (not through my cloud mind you) and started flailing her arms and coughing and said under her breath "OMG YOU ARE GONNA KILL SOMEBODY" I couldn't help but LOL.

That hasn't happened to me YET, but about 2/3yrs ago I was stuck in a (I kid you not) 2x4 painted square behind the nasty dumpster in texas heat behind a city block sized building going up 20+ floors and some lady walked RIGHT by this middle of nowhere smoking area (I was attending a class there and nearly got tazed by security guard who was a total jerk about me smoking in the middle of the parking lot 800 ft from building!) and did the "cough cough ..... omg...can you believe these people" thing and I SWEAR TO GLOB I almost tackled her and blew smoke in her face.

lets be honest, my $9 bucks a pack smoke is paying for an awful lot in my no state income tax state...i'm following the crazy rules and it was a beyond pain in the .... place to find and took me 15min to GET THERE....ARRGGHH...

I think I might lose it if that happened again while vaping. Look for me on the local news.

Personally I like the 30 min reviews - at least the pbusardo ones anyway. For me, they tend to give me more than enough info if I'm considering making a purchase. Granted, I don't always watch the entire thing from start to finish but between reading here and watching vids, I can usually make a pretty good choice on whether or not to buy.

Now, back to the point of this thread -

#unknown - people who make video reviews, then proceed to belch throughout. Take a $(%*ing gas-x, rolaids, anything! Hell, why not just lift your leg up and fart while you're at it? Nothing I like better than other peoples digestive issues (extra special when wearing headphones because it's late at night)

Phil's reviews are the best ones put there that I have found for detail. It's why I own a Vamo now, wel that and that the ISVD was gone when it came to order time. I am going to start doing my own reviews, and he is a good guide for the right way to review.

Now onto the topic. Having to explain to non-vapers that your new mod 50 dollar is that much better then your old one and getting that silly look from them, then hearing them talk about their new 300 dollar phone they got to replace their 300 dollar phone they bought 2 months ago.

- wearing vape glasses where everything you see you think is vape related...or could be....like bed bath & beyond is going to have an e-cig?
(one was a stylus and the other...wait for it...a "personal trimmer" so i toootally cut myself slack on both of those :D)
- thinking "hmmm...i kind of didn't want ppl to see me smoking at all...now i want *everyone* to see me vaping" (shame vs pride...something to ponder)

Unscrew the top cap and see if it fires with the cap off. May need to tighten the atty head back on there a bit. Happens to me all the time with my aClear.

Yeah I noticed that when you screw on the top you can often unscrew the atty. I just baptized my new K Pro, with the juice instead. The long road I know, but what the heck gotta break this baby in sometime right?

Little freaking bottles everywhere, and the one you are trying to find is always one of the last ones you pick up. I swear, some days I just want to take all the caps off and pour them all into one big gallon jug.

The thought that it would probably create the most perfect, sublime all day vape ever, with zero chance of ever being able to recreate it is the only thing stopping me from doing it. :D
