Do you get annoyed with everyone asking about your pv?

I do get sick of explaining my Ipro to people. It wasn't so bad when I was using my ego, but the first day I brought my Ipro to work and was using it on break a female coworker (that I've never been friendly with) said "Jesus, you bought another one of those stupid things?" I replied "Jesus, you bought another pack of those stupid things?" okay, not very witty I'll admit... But still. I don't get on people for smoking and would appreciate the same courtesy.
What I find strange is that 99% of the people I work with are completely accepting of my vaping. A lot of them are very interested and supportive of it. Mostly because if they have known me for a while, they know that some days I would smoke two packs a day and constantly had to have at let three packs on me at all times.
I explain my PV to people on a daily basis, and it sure does get old. Its worth it though, if one of every ten people I explain it to start using one, right? -That's what I tell myself ;)
Lately the smokers at work have taken on explaining it for me though! Someone new asks what on earth I am smoking and the boys pipe in and explain what it is. How they want to buy one but can't justify the cost to their spouse yet.

I think it's witty:)

It depends on the demeanor of the curious party. If they want to be skeptical, I give them facts. If they want to be accusatory, I give them wit and sarcasm, because that's all they afford, generally. If it's a smoker, I offer a sample (with extra santitized DT). If they just want to be a busy-body, I give em both barrels of my ...... attitude. Like I said, it just depends on how I'm approached.

I live in a smoking-restricted state, so it's fun when a waiter or waitress asks, "What's that?". I generally tell them, "It's a cigarette.", then take a big 'ol puff and launch a cloud. I then explain the Cliff's notes. It's worked in my favor. I get to puff in restaurants after meals. :)

Wore my titanium KGO on a lanyard out in public to a local venue, totally had my vaping geek on. Only had one person give a second glance, and she asked about it because her partner's interested in stopping smoking. Pointed her to a local vendor.

I think I'll tend to be pretty evangelical about my PV.
