Embarrassed, no never. I'm proud of the fact that I can vape in the car, without having to crack a window in the middle of winter.

The bigger the mod the better. If it doesn't stand out cos it's a small device, I'll get a bright red drip tip for it. Just need to find a tip now that has flashing lights and plays music :laugh:

Seriously though, be proud of your vaping. Vape loud and vape proud :D
If I don't crack the window I can't see...

While many people are in positions in life where it doesn't matter what others think of them, others are in positions where professional credibility IS an issue. Vaping could be an issue to some, but with education, more and more people can come to the realization that it is a much better option than smoking. The ban here on drug talk is SO important.

no, but I've noticed the smokers more since I started vaping.

kinda feel sorry for them :blink:
When I pass by the smoking huts at the VA, and smell them, I just shake my head-- so sad. Obsessing about vaping is much better than living for my next cig. :D

To be honest my biggest worry was getting stopped by the boys in blue. I prefer to deal with badges as friends. The lack of drug talk is why I joined this forum instead of one of the many others. I appreciate being able to share the forum with friends and family.

My wife and I spent this last Saturday at Universal in Orlando. It was our first trip back since we had stopped smoking and started vaping. We vaped all day, anywhere except in lines. I was a bit self conscious at first but no one bothered us. In fact it was nice not having to find the hidden away smoking spots. We even noticed a few other vapers.

Am I the only one that feels a bit odd puffing away on these things. Vanity sucks. Hahaha

I'm just using an eGo with a Smok Aro Mini 2 topper and it looks like a pen to me. No self consciousness here.

Now .... if I was using one of those that looks like it belongs in my bedside drawer I'd probably still be smoking. Just sayin'.:ohmy:
Lol miss boo. That is precisely why I stick to box style mods. In all serious though , driving home from work at 3 in the morning, I'm still waiting to be pulled over for cop thinking I'm smoking something illegal.

I was self conscious for about five minutes, when I realized I look like homemade sin in mismatched clothing with or without the ecig.

Now, when I catch people looking, I get wide-eyed and start to point at them sexy while I'm toking. Make them feel like they just stepped into an R&B video, all sexy like and stuff.

I never felt self-conscious, but I tend to play nice and go outside when in a store or restaurant, etc. In the car...*shrug* I'm not worried about police interaction, if they pull me over we'll have a fun time (I know a couple of very good, VERY aggressive lawyers with a pronounced liberatarian bent). It's actually started a couple of fun conversations, since I don't evangelize or approach smokers when I see them. When asked, however, I'm more than happy to discuss the setup, what flavor I'm vaping, and so on.

I get strange looks from people in cars next to me when I am vaping in the car...like I am smoking...insert illegal smokeable here....but I don't care. I am proud to be smoke free. I had one of the guys that work in the other hangar ask me about it today...it was a great conversation piece. I do, however, limit my vaping in restaurants and such...just to be polite.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the looks I get when I blow a massive cloud out my sun roof at red lights! I stopped caring about what people thought about a week after I started. Now I converted about 10 people at work, where we are now the majority outside at the smoking section.

on a side note my friend got pulled over while she was vaping.. cop simply asked her what it was, and then spent another 10 min discussing the benefits and took a card from local vape shop from her. I think he is a smoker and looking to switch over too lol..

When I step out of my car at a store with my Nemesis and Kayfun I do my very best Spicoli impersination.
