I actually read all posts in this thread. I had a few laughs, and could relate to many of the responses. Thanks for starting this.
Thread of the month, no doubt. A couple more for the road:
1. Anything "CE2". Seriously, Royal Smokers, give up already. If you haven't gotten it even close in 4 1/2 revisions, maybe it's time to try a completely new design. Or just go away - Boge & Joye have a pretty darn good handle on Cartos. C+ for effort though. I'd bump it up to a B if you had any semblance of PR or Customer Service.
2. Having to buy my stuff from so many different vendors. This isn't any particular vendors' fault. I just hate having to buy hardware from one, juice from another, and DIY supplies from a third (or fourth, or fifth). A lot of it is a testament to the great cottage industry we're part of, and that there is such a great selection of goods to try. Still, I wish I didn't have to order from so many different places in a given month to get the supplies I've settled on using.

Nope not ticked off at all...
I would have to say the best piece of E-Cig Hardware I have is my PC with access to the ECF!
Just think were people would be without the ECF!
So, to try and tick you off... LOL...
You asked for vaping pet peeves.
How can anyone who has used the ECF to help them,
not consider it to be part of vaping! So there
Oh, and to stay inline to what you though you posted... (Second tickoff attempt... LOL)
Seeing that your E-Cig package was out for delivery in the morning, only to find out that the mailman didn't have the package with him to deliver on that day, and having to wait till the next day to get it!

My main pet peeve is when my family still thinks it is OK to smoke in my car because I used to, even though they just watched me clean the interior for the last 8 hours to get rid of the smoke smell. AAARRRRGGGGG

I stand totally corrected. ECF is part of vaping. However, that does open up a whole can of worms for this thread...
Dude.... I think that they have a whole section for that......... lol. OK OK, not really Pet Peeves, but.....
Getting free juice samples is really nice but they do not note the level you order (I use 12mg) and send a HIGH level nic juice instead. Now, I love the free samples but, I get such a BUZZ on them that I taste them and if I like the flavor I order it in my level of nic. I can imagine it is really irksome to someone who uses zero nic in their juice. I am trying to wean myself off the nic for health reasons (high blood pressure).
I have bag full of samples that I will never use!

I think I'm going to abbreviate them as "aties & batties" now...just to see how long it takes them to end up on this pet peeves thread.

Great responses. I personally agree with many of these and empathize with those that are annoyed by the ones I disagree with.
The attempted word "vap" annoys me too. I'd accept vap' wherein the apostrophe connotes an abbreviated word but "vape" has an "e", dammit.
Also, any cigarette or smoking term/reference should be eliminated from our vocacbulary when discussing PVs. No matter how annoying others may find the phrase "personal vaporizer" it's an accurate generic term for the devices we all use. Way more acccurate than an "e-cigarette" or "e-smoke".
So here's one I didn't see mentioned, even though someone did point out the extra "T" in the abbreviated "atty".
Maybe it's only me but it's irksome when people refer to the plural of "atty" by adding an "s". As previously pointed out, "atty" has an extra "t" but givent that, more than one atty would be "atties", not "attys". Until we start stacking batterys instead of batteries, more than one atty should end in "ies", not "y".
ETA:
Based on your above comment Tim, clearly you EARNED the batts!
Funny, but just today I was on an analog forum with analog people...
... I mean, I was talking with some friends, and one mentioned how silly he thought the use of "analogs" for cigarettes was. He was probably right. I doubt I'll use it again.
Let's see... I'm not entirely comfortable with even "atty," although I use the word. I think it has has something to do with the internet habits of "email addy" and getting a "pressy" for Christmas. Huh?

Here is a visual, climbing under my desk at work to plug in the charger because the outlet is ahem, located at the way back. In a skirt trying to avoid hitting my head as a scooby my way back up to my chair.
It's all for the good of the cause!

People who are embarrased to vape in public! Because it's so big and don't look like a cigarette!
A good tube mod, 'bout the size of a roll of dimes, fits a fist real good, won't break your fingers,
somebody makes fun of your e-cig, SLUG THEM.
Peace and Happy Vaping......

don't really like the term 'analogs' either. They are cigarettes people.
"Personal Vaporizer" or whatever is what my mom placed in my room 40 years ago when I had a chest cold...
Oh, and I don't like overfilling my cartos and sucking in liquid. (my own fault...)
Stealth Vaping lies - the elevator door opened and someone got in. They looked worried and were looking all over for signs of fire; probably confused since they didn't smell anything, just saw the cloud of vapor I had just exhaled...
I DO love this thread!

Sorry, I wasn't clear. Zag has it right. Components that don't work together shouldn't fit together. But someone smarter than I will have to figure out how to make that work.
As for being stuck with the electronic terminology, I ain't buying it. When you have more than one related number to consider, the average person buys a pack of Camels. In combination with some judicious threading (see above), maybe some single unit of measurement (like BTUs in other industries) would be appropriate. What we have now is "HyperSmog Cartos heat at 1 zillion joules, while MonsterSmok Cartos are powered by .66 zillion BTUs. But wait, a combination of HyperSmog carts and the spleen or a MonsterSmok carto combined with some eye of newt burns hot enough to heat one pound of salty water .556 degrees Celcius in 20 seconds at 3500 feet of altitude if you're properly grounded." Camel Lights, please.
Pet peeve: falling in love with a juice that disappears permanently from the market almost immediately after my first shipment arrives, but is immediately replaced with 1400 identically named competitors that taste like black water with Splenda added.
Posted this before but will say it again. It drives me up the wall when I read or watch a review and the reviewer states " this blueberry juice really tastes like BLUEBERRIES!! " really? No kidding? I just sat through a 9 minute review for a flash back of Willy Wonka? You think maybe thats why they wrote blueberry on the side of the bottle? I would be more interested if it DOESN'T taste like what it is supposed to!
Ok off my soap box now, carry on.
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
