term used instead of e-cigarettes

[Maurice Pudlo]

I just identify my stuff by name when asked what "that" is.

If they are really interested and ask more pointed questions I'll go ahead and answer them.

If I'm asked the big why question, I usually just say because I enjoy it.

Sometimes people will go on to ask if I smoked cigarettes, to which I answer yes, for 29 years, but I don't now.

I just try to keep it light, I'm not a vaping Witness that preaches the wonders of our savior Provari or anything. If anything I just want to be left to my own devices in public, but I don't have it in me to tell people that its kind of rude to get in my personal space and drill me for information.

If we could totally revamp the image I like to see them called steam engines or steam machines.

My vote is for simply vape.

"Oh wow, that is one badass looking vape you have there"

Lung steamer. Anti-cancer Inhaler. The guys at work simply refer to my Provari as ”one badass Mother [Moderated].”


FYI:
I put in *'s so not to spell out the actually word, not trying to ”evade” the censors.

thanks all i think I do like vaping device because no matter what setup you are using we are all ultimately vaping and using a device to achieve this. Personal vaporizer works too

In general, I call my stuff "vape gear". I call my egos my "backup pens" and my mods my mods.

i was doing a search on this subject to see what came up when typed in electronic cigarette and then personal vaporizer. It seems that a lot of sites out there be it selling them, reviewing them or wikipedia seems to finally be differentiating between the old e-cig type that 1st started (actually look like a cig) and PVs, mods, etc. And calling each what they are. That is good because I think the 1st generation of e-cigs is on the way out. The Wikipedia site actually had a lot more positive spin that I would have thought. Although one major thing it kept saying was that people that use e-cigs, PVs whatever still use traditional cigarettes and I think that is BS. I didn't take the time to look at the source. Another interesting thing I read is that the big company ecigs that are sold in convience stores decreased this year due to vapers going towards ego, mods, etc. Go figure.

I'm not a fan of actually saying "PV." It doesn't sound positive enough. Use your imagination for a second and consider what a phrase like "my PV's acting up" sounds like to the uninformed. . .

 

[Coldrake]

I call mine my anti-smoking device.

"my vapey stick" But after I get back from caring for my gramma, I will be getting 2 mvp's so I guess it'll be "my vapey box"!

 

[Big Me]

I tell people I vape and, with non vapers, I explain its like an e-cig but better (coz the ones that look like cigarettes are rubbish!)
