I was standing on a train platform, minding my own business, I wasn't even close to the other passengers on the platform, so I reached into my pocket and produced an EVOD. I was in the open air so couldn't see the harm in a quick nicotine fix and I was barely a few drags into 'the deed' when I noticed I was being watched.
There was a lady over to my right who looked as though she had just witnessed a Martian landing right in front of her and was too shocked to speak or even move. Out of the corner of my eye I watched her as she watched me. She made no attempt to hide her interest in me she just stood and stared as though that was perfectly acceptable behaviour towards a stranger.
I looked to my left and saw two more, this time a couple, watching with great interest. I can't say they approved or disapproved they just seemed enthralled by my vaping exploits. They didn't speak to me either. Meanwhile it was announced over the tannoy that smoking was not allowed in this station. Were the train staff watching me too? Why didn't they confront me?
Eventually I boarded the train. The couple made sure to get in a really good watch as I climbed aboard, being as it was their last chance to study this new phenomenon. I wasn't vaping by this time but I was clearly a person of great interest at this point regardless.
When I arrived at my destination I was standing outside a shop in the high street pondering The Watchers when lo and behold, more watching commenced from all directions as I puffed out clouds of smoke from what looked like an alien device of some description. I am new to vaping in general and this was my introduction to public vaping. What amazed me most was nobody said a word to me, they all just stared at me as though to say 'what the hell are you doing?'.
They were all watching me thinking 'weirdo'. I was watching them right back thinking 'weirdos'. It was all a bit odd, to say the least, to say the very least...
