Was shopping at the local grocery store while riding a scooter. Yes I ride a scooter sometimes when I feel lazy and just want to sit while my wife does her extreme couponing deals and what not. Cruising down one isle I see some dude picking up something of the shelf and I see vapor. I just blurt out "Hey are you a vapor?" I could of said something more witty mind you. He said "yeah" . He showed me his rig, an ego c with an mt3 I believe. I had my mvp with a protank he said "That's huge!" Lolz. Asked me how long the battery lasts etc etc.

I told him about diy, wizard labs, and protanks. I asked if he was still smoking he said no which is great. Was exciting for me. I've only seen Vapers at the b&m and they all had stacked batteries in a silver bullet or bolt puffing on carto tanks.

Was cool meeting the guy. Makes me wonder how many vapers are around me any given day.

My most recent "vaper in the wild" encounter was while I was in my car at a stop light. I look over, see this guy puffing what appeared to be a spinner with an evod. We made eye contact, I gave him a wave, held up my mech and AGI, he flips me off and drives away.

"Here we observe the a**hole in his natural environment. See how he postures to assert his dominance."

And I was once kicked out of Wally World for riding on a scooter. Apparently they frown on 30-something people walking in the door and wanting the extra mobility.

I haven't seen any vapers in the wild while driving, but I'm gotten more than a few thumbs up from people that see me vaping in my car. Or maybe it's 'cuz I've driving a beat-up Jetta that looks like it should have a Deadhead sticker on it. I don't know, but I'm sticking with the thumbs up is for the vaping, since it never happened before I started vaping.

Lol I'm 35 and haven't been bothered yet. If they ever do confront me I already have my answer.

"I used to fratonize with unclean women" and then take off.

I can relate to discovering other vapors in the wild. Yesterday I was into Temecula shopping at a hardware store when I guess the owner it was walked up to help me. When I looked at him I seen a little bit of vapor coming from his mouth then I noticed he was holding a electronic cigarette. I'm not sure what kind it was; on top of it he had some kind a tank with a carto. It kind of took me off guard because I don't usually run into anybody like that. I made a comment about looking for parts and it just so happens the reason I'm there is because I was looking for parts to repair one of my mods that I have. The statement about driving in the car and noticing other vapors I can relate to also. Frequently as I'm going down the road I'm always looking to see if somebody else has an e-cigarette and waiting for the opportunity to do just that and lift up my own. I suppose as time goes on we will run into more people. In my neck of the woods is very rare to come across anybody and I'm kind of lonely…

But just think.... When vaping takes off thanks to herpes McCarthy in the new blu ad- you can kick back, watch the vapers and talk about how original you used to be. We are the COOL kids now!!!

I've never seen another vapor in the wild. However, I've seen others in vape B&M's. For the grand opening for the new AltSmoke Store and Vapor Lounge here in Cincinnati there must have been a total of 150 plus vapors throughout the day. That was quite the sight to see that many people blowing clouds, everyone comparing their battery and delivery devices, trying out each other's favorite e-liquids, etc. I got to meet and chat with a couple of local ECF members. Good times.

Some tassels for you to dress up your scooter at Walmart. They have silver as well. (So hot!)

at 0.025 MPH, they'll never catch you.

You make me laugh Eric, next time I'm passing thru SA I'll PM you and we can cruise the local walmart together - I'll bring my spinners and EVOD and adult beverages, you bring the laughs and the juice. It'll be a blast.

Eric.. I don't care if this sounds weird or creepy.. I wish you and I were friends in real life. I bet we would regularly pee our pants laughing about stuff.

Yeah, it does sound weird and creepy. But could you imagine a bunch of drunk ECFers vaping in the wild? It would be payday for the Depends manufacturer!

Alas, I have never seen a vapor in the wild :(

Other than work I've seen one.. he was sitting with his arms folded and resting on his ample belly.. he used his belly as a shelf to then prop his arm up so he could vape.. i was so excited i exclaimed.. "You're vaping!"

He gave a chortle and grumbled.. " yeah it helps."

I left him alone.. with his belly shelf.

The next one i meet will offer me juice and lemonade .. i just know it!
