Yep... analog is also electronic... the difference between digital and analog (again both electronic) is that analog implies a smooth transition from off to full, as opposed to the on or off (or stepped progression) of digital...

When I hear people call a cigarette an analog cig, it irks me... not sure why, it just does, ok?.. lol

In my mind, an analog cigarette is one that would have varying degrees of power supplied to the atomizer based on how hard you draw. Is there such a thing? Cause that would be cool, and a LOT closer to simulating a real (NOT ANALOG :mad:) cigarette... ;)

/rant off..

Cheers!

I used to smoke cigarettes. Now I vape on my PV. I refuse to use other terms for it, I don't care who made up that completely wrong concept of an "analog" and it is the stupidest word I have ever heard for a cigarette except perhaps "stinky" which is worse.

It's a cigarette! Anything else IRKS ME TOO.

This is a good point - the analog cigarette thing.

While we're at it, 'tootin' is pretty lame, too. I know some of you 'toot', but I take
a pull off my PV. People who toot leave a different kind of odor in the place.

I mean really, it's odd to watch some big, burly guy on a review vid say he's tooting.
It sounds so dainty IMO.

*giggles*

Already one.
Lol

srrsly? That's just craziness!

I can't see any time in my life where I'd call a cigarette and analog cigarette. Most people I know would just look at me like I'm crazier than they already think I am. And whether I smoke or vape, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna puff it or take a drag off of it. It's just easier for me to not change terminology this late in my life. I'm starting to get feeble minded after all....

Old school, "toot" used to describe using a substance were not allowed to mention here,thats why im against it. We have enough negative perceptions to fight without adding to it ourselves.

I must be getting old, nose piercing make me laugh as well because I can actually remember what they used to signify.
