Honestly, I miss being able to be around a bunch of smokers and not feel sick from the smell. I still go out on break with my buddy at work because it is a good time to chit-chat and puff on my PV, but being around 6 smokers and an ashtray with a ton of burning cigarettes butts in it (someone just tossed it in and it lit them on fire inside it) made me feel very ill, and I couldn't stand the smell on my jacket when I came back in. It was horrible.

I know the feeling. I have a Zippo app on my Android. It clicks open and closed with a flick of the wrist (really!) and you flick the wheel to light it. If you blow on the phone, the mic picks it up and the flame flickers! You have to download this app if you have an Android. It's accessible through the market app icon. Just do a search for lighter.

It's also available for I-Touch...I like that it clicks and flicks.

A friend of mine has that app. He likes to freak people out pretending to "light" his e-cig with it.

I second that one. It's killing my rankings at poker league. I rarely go anymore and when I do, I can usually only handle playing the first game of the night because after 2 hours in a cloud of smoke, I'm nauseated and have a headache.

Add me to the morning coffee crowd too. Breakfast of champions, three smokes and a pot of coffee for breakfast. I have a year in though and I do not miss it as much. I think it was just such a long habit.

I was always one of those smokers who minded if you smoked around me type people. Someone else smoking when I wasn't made me gag. Strangely, it does not bother me so much with the vaping. When I smell it these days, it is a happy realization that I won't ever be smelling like an ashtray and that yeah, I finally really kicked it for good.

I always have to use the stove and usually a piece of spaghetti to light a candle these days. Its really tough in the summertime, once we start grilling. This year I have to buy one of those long funky lighters, last year I found myself doing all kinds of creative grill lighting.

LMAO :)

It's like me, except i have an electrical stove, and have to wait for it to get red hot, THEN i can finally throw a bit of Kleenex on it, and light whatever i need to light
