During that time would you also suggest we buy cigarettes until we get home to vape?
Saying it should be left home while out & about makes absolutely no sense to me.
at the grocery store.

heh... my husband bats at it when we're watching TV.
I only make thin clouds, but I guess any cloud at all kinda impedes the view of the TV. 
My mom sometimes waves it around; I said "sorry," but she laughed and said she didn't mind, it was just so "neat" how it looked like smoke but had no particular smell, maybe just a little "fruity" (strawberry & cream vape). My family has been extremely supportive, they're just all so amazed I finally quit smoking -- nobody expected that, least of all me.

Agree 1 million percent. My vape goes where I go. I may not bring it out and use it everyplace I go, but if it's not there, then neither am I.

I vape pretty much the same way I smoked. Only in approved places and try not to be objectionable to anyone. I get some looks for sure here in rural KY but no one says anything. Probably just think I am doing ....
Like Andria I always have my vape kit with me though.
LOL did not realize the illegal drug word I used would be censored. But good thing I suppose.

Personally I don't see a thing wrong with someone vaping when they want- where they want. The mentality that vaping should be treated in the same manner in which we once spoked is ridiculous. Also saying that vaping in public is the end all be all towards regulations is also ridiculous.
I do NOT understand why vapers are so damn critical towards each other. As long as I am not infringing on ones quality of life I'm not doing anything wrong. It's the uninformed that are out problem. WE don't need to be each others problem.
Last person I happen to run into vaping outside of a vape shop I gave them a fist bump! [HASHTAG]#PowerToTheVapers[/HASHTAG]

No. I do understand your point. Vaping in a public place with the intent for no one to see you runs you the constant risk of someone seeing you. It would be respectful to avoid the being caught situation by asking an employee or waiting till later.
I've vaped indoors a public place before and even on a train ride. No one said anything to me almost every time, but I would feel more comfortable vaping in a place where no one has a reason to say anything.
I say "run the risk" because a lot of people are not familiar with vaping and can see it as being offensive. If someone were allergic to my exhaled vapor I'd feel very bad about them being near it.

There needs to be an "unlike" button....or a "jerk" button for these folks that think their way is the only way. These "you SHOULD be able to leave your set up at home...." comments just kill me. News flash: We CAN leave it at home. We CHOOSE not to.
Also, I've said it before ....I don't feel people vaping in public will do anything to adversely effect vaping. Opinionated jacklegs however........

Look. All I'm trying to say is that if you want to vape indoors a public place, be prepared to be asked to stop.
I'm not pulling my thoughts out of the air. I've been asked to stop vaping inside a public place. The store employees asked in a nice way, but if I know if I vape indoors enough times I'll probably be asked to stop again.
It's just a respect thing. You're free to do whatever you want, not telling anyone they should or shouldn't do anything. Just be aware of the risks.

Here's the problem....
Who decides if you're infringing on someone else's quality of life? YOU?
The moment you think you have the right to make that decision you are infringing on their quality of life. They, and they alone have the right to make that choice, and if they decide your vaping is bothering them then you are infringing on their quality of life.
You can argue until your blue in the face about whether or not your vaping is causing them any health problems, but I'll point out that if I put a 500 watt subwoofer speaker up to your bedroom window at 3AM and blast a bass beat I'm not causing you any health problems, but I'm certainly affecting your quality of life. Most places have noise restrictions, legally enforceable, because loud music, loud partying, even yelling affects the quality of life of those who have to listen to it, and likewise, whether you like it or not, your vapor clouds affect the quality of life of the people who are exposed to it without their consent.
Are you giving the people around you a choice on whether or not they are exposed to your vapor?
If not, don't you see the hypocrisy of your comment?
Of course they have a choice. Are you assuming you know how I vape based on that comment?
If so, don't you see the arrogance of your comment?
Can't we just all get along? Lol
We can have opinions. We all vape a certain way and will probably agree and disagree on things.
I can say for sure I tend to vape in privacy. Before that I vaped in public a lot. I don't disagree on how I used to vape, but I just wanted to change it. I love seeing people vaping in public, gives me a reason to say hi.

took me a minute...but that one cracked me up.
Don't worry about me, really. I've stealth vaped everywhere for 6 years. Nobody ever notices. I don't make clouds and it's not burning!!
Or, I'm not vaping, I just like to carry my Eroll in my mouth.
What if there is no vapor exhaled? If I know I am going to be somewhere for an extended period where vaping is, inconvenient. An Ego/Evod with some 90pg/10h2o 8nic leaves absolutely no vapor exhaled if held in for 3-5 seconds Just saying...
Just saying...
I've never even thought about taking a mod into the grocery store or any other shopping store in the U.S. I did vape at M&S once, but I was with one of my ladies who claims to hate shopping, yet was in the store well over an hour. I wasn't hiding it, nor blowing clouds, as I prefer to hold the vapor in. No one seemed to care...
I cant stand it when people cough in restaurants or grocery stores, or any public place. How dare they spread their germs all over other peoples food and in to my air i breath?
Women not wearing pants and showing off their legs in public?? Thats just offensive.
Take a chill peel people or go live on a island by your self.

I accidentally vaped in a grocery store the other day. I was super frazzled and sleep deprived, had been running all over town all day like a crazy person, and was carrying my vape in my front shirt pocket. It was a completely automatic reflex reaction, take it out, vape, put it back. I realized what I'd done about the time I exhaled the vapor, and was worried for a minute. Nobody said anything. I don't think anyone even noticed. I don't typically vape in stores like that. I consider everywhere outside fair game though, and have had nothing but greetings from other vapers and the occasional comment that it smells nice.
I've vaped in several restaurants and bars, after asking the waitress/bartender and being told to go for it. Again, nobody seemed to notice or care. I wouldn't vape on a train, or the bus, or a plane, but I don't really care if someone else does.
I'm not going to be a jerk and blow vapor all up in someone's face, because I don't want someone blowing clouds of smoke (or reeking clouds of nasty perfume and hair spray) all up in my face. But I'm not doing anything wrong or illegal, and I refuse to be made to feel like I need to only vape in my house with the curtains closed and the lights off or someone might see me and get upset and singlehandedly ban all vaping because I blew a cloud while I was sitting by myself on a park bench. I spent too many years as a smoker feeling like I needed to hide behind stuff and shrink into alleys and apologize for existing, I'm not interested in feeling that way about vaping.

Have a little respect for your fellow HUMAN and Vape ONLY where it is appropriate to VAPE. Start with not vaping, or sneaking and being proud of yourself, in places where smoking would not be normal. Vaping is an ADULT activity, so grow-up.
We, and I mean Smokers and Vapers don't need to be going out of our ways to encourage the ANTI's with our actions or attitudes.
