you do realize that is a style a lot wear including myself for the last um 20 years or so??

I'm definitely kind of curious about the origins of the black T-shirts, tattoos, and piercings...plus/minus a flat brim hat or funky hair-doo. In So Cal, 95% of employees at vape stores look like this...There are about 10 stores within 5 miles of my house and there are almost no exceptions to the rule. It is a little intimidating until you realize how hilarious it is...

You mistook the OP for talking down about a group of people, you can't grasp the fact that your comment was completely hypocritical and senseless then somehow use those great reading comprehension skills to once again somehow come to the conclusion that my comment with not a single double standard was similar to your ridiculous comment and equivalent to your Crying about what others do them turn around and do the exact same thing.]

You got all that from That's a whole lot better n' the one I had?

[ Which you clearly can't explain how my comment was in anyway similar to yours, or contribute anything of value for that matter. I'm beginning to think you just thought that meme was cool but don't completely understand the context in which to properly use it. Then again, Clearly I have a low level of comprehension since i can't understand that for you to say I'm calling the kettle black I would have to be whining about you minding your own business, you know... Like you did.]

I said you were displaying a lack of comprehension because I clearly didn't say you were calling the kettle black. Are you beginning to get the picture/meme?

[ Butttt I didn't. I was stating you shouldn't say for others to mind their business when you cant do it yourself.]

Ummmm.....because that would be like...........A Pot Calling A Kettle Black?

[Then you saying "ayy practice what you preach" all the while your entire comment is full of contradictory statements telling others do do the complete opposite of what your comment was doing.]

All that from a whole lot bettern the one I had? :)

[ Guess that makes sense.] Not really[ I am kind of jelly of your sense of entitlement, lack of commonsense, great sense of humor and superior intellect.] I get that a lot :)[ Plus you drip? Hold on while I go find a pointless image to try and fit in to fulfill my intense craving to be accepted by strangers :) then we truly will be one in the same.

I'm actually really confused what happened here myself, and my reading comprehension happens to be pretty good. You responded to a quote from TorontoOntario, Bikenstein then agreed with your post. You argued he missed the point, he said okay "have a nice day" and you came back with this retort. Are you possibly confusing Bikenstein with Toronto?

Your reading comprehension is excellent:)

By the way, if you are from outside Cali, these are the people making your juice.

Actually, the person making my juice looks a lot like... ME! :D


The attitude behind it screams hipster all the way...parental issues + trying too hard to be cool. Is this the future for us all???? :facepalm:

Doubtful. I may still have a few parental issues (those don't seem to go away, especially if your parents really are a-holes), I'm wayyyyyyyyyy over "cool." I even wear flood pants on occasion -- which, to a child of the 70s, still look stupid, even if they are "the style." :facepalm: At least I tuck mine into my boots, so you can't see how stupidly (fashionably!) short they are.

Ohhh, for the days when "cool" was all I had to worry about... :facepalm:

:lol:

I'm still trying to figure out what language "[ I am kind of jelly of your sense of entitlement]" is, because it's clearly not English.

I am kind of marmalade

I am kind of syrup

I am kind of doughnut

I am kind of waffle

I am kind of coffee

:blink:

Nope, still doesn't make any sense.

Yeah... if only I had been complaining about you whining followed by me telling everyone to just ignore entitled hypocrites. Unfortunately for you my post read nothing like that. I simply was pointing out the fact that if you're going to come to a public forum and complain about other people, its probably best not to follow that up with a hypocritical and contradicting statement. I'd love to hear your take on how my post and yours were somehow equally hypocritical, Mr.kettle.

On the other hand, with the memes, your lack of comprehension of what people say and overall sense of entitlement that somehow youre exempt from your own rules and double standards leads me to believe the reason you had yo succumb to your great ability to mind your own buisnees or whatever is simply because you are one of the snooty hipsters. Its all making sense now. Sorry, I don't feed trolls and I don't buy organic so I can't feed hipsters. Have an awesome weekend!!

:lol:.....................I know it was just a misunderstanding but it still makes me laugh. Guess I should have been more clear with my post. Peace

just kill the people who piss you off... problem solved......

anyhoot, I like using my halo triton which produces barely any vapor since halo juices are pg based but I don't care as i love the taste and smell

I use my mech mod outside because I don't want to blow clouds in my house especially since I'm confining myself away from my family and hamster, but I enjoy the taste a lot more and like to see the clouds as well. you have to understand that with these ecigs comes new technology, its nothing like normal cigs so, some vapors do it and stay away from cigs because they like making clouds or do it for the taste etc

now for the people who vape because they think its a in thing or cool and don't do it for a safe alternative to cigarettes or chaw, look at my first sentence

I like the way you think...kill'em all god will know his own.

thats because vaping has become a hobby. never had the problem with cigarette, unless you count the snooty guy who insist rolling there own cigarette is better the just buying a pack.

Yeah the hipster for the most part are pretty OK kids......I tell ya the ones I find annoying are the collectors..the ones with the 2000.00 gepetto elites v2 with an in'ax and 20 other highend attys....they have every high end piece of vape gear ever made sitting on a shelf where they spend their days polishing them...they buy attys they only use once every six months, and drive the price of high end gear way up,because they're not buy to get a good vape they're buying them to collect....it makes people looking for an atty that they'd like to vape on have to pay exorbante prices to outbid other collectors.....I use to envy them, now I think they're a joke.

Their collection is usually from FasTech and only cost them $200...

I don't think that you can get better than an iSick with a nautilus mini on top. But that's just me.

Some people want their mod to be made out of wood. OK. Plateau briar, then?

But all that stuff mattered when you were smoking pipe tobacco and not vaping.

Wood on a mod is a bit like wood on a station wagon. It's unnecessary. Imho.

Hipsters will do something weird just to show that they're young. Bless. ;

There are a couple of vape stores in my city where I shop regularly. The one that carries the best selection of liquid has a vape bar setup where people tend to hang out, socialize, and ask questions about building coils. It's not really my thing, but I can see how it would be useful for someone interested in building their own mods. I'm all set with a low maintenance setup: variable wattage device, a good tank, and atomizers that cost under $2.

Even though they have a great selection, I honestly hate shopping there. There is definitely a snooty hipster vibe. There are 3-5 employees working at any given time, but it's a challenge getting their attention to actually buy something. Everyone has their own preferences, I guess. I just don't want to hang out at the vape store for half an hour just to buy some liquid.

To be honest, Fraulein, on the other end of the spectrum, as a vape shop employee, it can be just as exhausting and annoying as anything else retail related. Even more so when it's niche, like vaping.

We have our mix of customers. Perpetually ignorant users; "this thing leaks"; "I know more than you do" snobs (they like to *think* they do); people who refuse to remember the name of the one and only juice they've been using for years; "I need that inside thingy..." "What kind of tank do you use?" "Oh I don't know, look me up..." ; "This thing doesn't hold a charge..." "THIS THING LEAKS"

"Why are your testers at 12?"
Not everybody drips.

People are shocked and awed when I don't know about the latest mod or RDA or RTA or hottest new thing since I work in a vape shop. Speaking honestly, after talking vape stuff for 10 hours a day, four days a week, the LAST thing I tend to do when I come home is sit down, fire up the web, and watch/read vape stuff. I used to, but not anymore. I much more prefer the bosom and lap of my lady.

EDIT: We have to deal with those snooty hipster vapers, too. We have to cater to everyone, although my heart is in starter kits. I much prefer the mind-opening or a new vaper, and not the obsessive coil speak from hobbyists.
