anyone had someone fake cough at them? lol

No one has ever fake coughed at me. lol. I'm a big dude at 6ft 3inches and 260lbs and covered in tattoos. I figure most of the time random people leave me alone out of fear... lmao.

Yup. I'm covered in tats, have a perpetually pi##ed off look on my face, but have the added threat of a 7 inch long KaBar knife on my hip. No one screws with me either.

I've had this happen too. I totally want to punch them, Idiots.

I'd like to hear if people from other countries than the U.S. have such experiences? I haven't, in Greece, and though I can't say it wouldn't happen, it seems extremely out of character for people here. I do think there is a small percentage of people who really do have seriously negative reactions from various scents, including soaps, colognes and scented body products, who might be legitimately adversely affected... though I suspect that the number of people claiming such sensitivity is far larger than the percentage that really does suffer from this problem.

I'm also willing to admit that some e-liquids are just nasty. We have one I bought myself for my husband that he enjoys, but which I won't allow him to vape in the house because it makes me feel sick, and his close friend (a light smoker), told him "I don't usually mind this [vape] stuff, but this one is awful." Occasionally you really do get a stinker, and people may react differently to different stuff: one person may love the scent of your bakery flavour while another finds it super sickly sweet.

So, yeah, I'm not that militant about it, and I also think that since we do have the option of just holding in the vapor for a few moments and not blowing clouds at all, we can choose our battles and not necessarily be too aggressive in situations or settings where it's possibly a problem. I mean I'm a chain vaper at home, but even I wouldn't want to eat in a restaurant full of people vaping, with different scents wafting all around and disturbing my taste/smell enjoyment of my food, for example, or be stuck in a non-ventilated area with someone who insisted on blowing huge clouds and filling the area with the scent that they are enjoying, but I might not like, or might not like to be penned up with.

I'm glad someone finally made a post for this. My mother did this in front of me with my around wife and said "uhh that one is really smokey, cough cough." Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh we did have a good laugh

I added "But don't cough when you have a humidifier on in the winter?"

If I vape in the car my wife will bark at me to open a window....while she sits there smoking tobacco, but the vape bothers her.

I had a kid do it to me at a concert! Holding nose, flailing arms and sticking her finger down her throat. The show was outside. I felt embarrassed for her parents by the end of her little performance.

Wow, the things you run into when you don't have a tazer.....

Wait! She's choking! Heimlich Maneuver!......THEN do it! Of course, that's in my dreams; but I may look like I'm moving in that direction, and when she says it's because of my "smoke", I'd ask her if she allergic to hot showers and tea kettles whistling.....and cold weather where white stuff comes out of her mouth. Then I'd look at her parents and tell them that she is the rudest little girl I ever met. She nearly gave me a heart attack!..... I'm 70 yrs. old and can say that 'cause I look like I could have one.

When I first started dripping, I took my rig to work. I took nice big toot in our smoking pavilion with about 5 smokers in there. 4 out of 5 started coughing and waving their arms around. They all left like my strawberry kiwi cloud was toxic. The 5th smoker was too busy laughing as he is familiar with
vaping, and has since switched. I couldn't believe I had cleared out the smokers from vaping too much. Good times.
