Metaphors, Similes and Analogys:

[RichardV]

Searching for my all day vape is like searching for the Holy Grail

Metaphor
vaping is a road map of a culture. It tells you where its people come from and where they are going.

Kudos-go 2 me!

A good juice is a favorite song; you sing it all day with a smile.

Analogy: In the fairy tale of my life, cigarettes represent a dragon and e-cigarettes a white knight. I have been in the belly of the dragon many times. Every time that I managed to fight my way free, I’d find myself swallowed up once again. Until one day, my white knight came along and vanquished the dragon for good.

Metaphor:
Finding my lost ecig that I misplaced is like finding my sanity. I need it to not feel crazy.

Yes, this one is going to be slightly long. But it's worth it.

I'm still rather new to vaping, working on weaning myself off of analogs. It's like I'm married to them. I keep using excuses to either vape or to not smoke. Though my tolerance for analogs is getting less and less every day. I was about to go out into the garage for one, and then thought, "But I don't really want to, I have a headache." Just like a woman to whine and complain and make an excuse not to do something!
Analogs & me, we're still together, but separated. And the divorce paperwork is in the mail. (Really!)

Simile: Getting a new juice in the mail is like going on a blind date; expectations and excitement abound, but a certain level of disappointment is also expected.

Simile -

Buying a new juice with a mouth-watering odor but nauseating taste is like opening birthday presents from your grandmother and finding only socks....

(Building on the disappointment theme... )

 

[lettucehead]

Simile -

Buying a disappointing juice is like coming home from a long day of work and finding that your whole family has gone out to dinner without you...


(More disappointment theme...)

Not a good feeling at all.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Piggybacking off of lettucehead's post #288...

Simile: Getting a juice that absolutely needs to steep for a long time is like having a birthday in the summer and getting a heavy leather coat as a gift!

 

[kookycole]

Analogy: Hearing smokers talking about the risks of e-cigarettes is kind of like listening to a Vicodin addict talk about the dangers of Tylenol.

[kookycole]

Simile-Having a battery die when you don’t have a back up is like running out of gas on a back country road. Both are avoidable with a little planning, but you’re in dire straits if it happens.

Analogy
breathing in the vape fog is like breathing the fresh air after a spring rain

[Mr.Mann]

Challenge: Let's hear some vaping analogies, metaphors, or similes about money or the costs related to ecigs. Many of us run into the understandable questions from non-vapers about the costs of ecigs, so let's come up with some answers for 'em.

Vaping on ejuice is like eating lobster for the price of fish sticks!

 

[HawkeyeFLA]

Not really any of the 3 categorgies, but vaping and saving means I will be able to afford my 14n cruise vacation in December.

 

[lettucehead]

Not a good feeling at all.

Nooooooo....

[Mr.Mann]

Nooooooo....



*sobbing into my glass of bourbon*

Not the simile, just the thought of being left out, or having a disappointing juice. Now, slowly move the bourbon from your face and pass it over to me, please...tears add a nice salty note

 

[lettucehead]

Simile -

The sense of horrified expectation suffered when caught at work with a cracked tank and no backup is like that experienced the moment you ask your flushed 2 year old if she's feeling all right and she immediately throws up on you...

You just know worse is to come...
