Then why advertise it?

Just a funny little story. I was at the amusement park the other day and I was hitting my Vamo V2. A couple of cops walked up to me and said "What have we got here? A little sneak-a-toke?" I explained to them what it was and blah blah...you all know how that goes. The most ironic part of this story is that this happened near a little smoker section, with painted ads on the benches for Blu Ecigs that say you can smoke anywhere. Ironic...

That's not true it looks like a robotic fallis everybody knows this.

I've never seen a robotic fallis, have you? Do you have pictures of one? Or are you just displaying the same thought process that is the problem in the first place?

(Couldn't help myself...)

[Edit] Now that this post has lost it's context it's not as funny. :(

Heck, even my Ego freaks people out! Two old school folks I know said straight out that it looks like I'm doing drugs. It does. I drive a company van with a company logo on it and I am cautions where I vape when I'm on the road. I don't want people to think XXX HVAC has a dope smoker workin for them. IDK, I'd rather this be kept on the lowdown. The more it increases in popularity the more regulations and taxes we can expect.

In all fairness to the officers up in No Cal y'all tend to be creative they probably wanted to make sure you were just vaping nic juice lol

They are already being discussed regardless of whether or not we keep it on the lowdown. Our only hope is to get these more out there so people can get educated and behind vaping as a safer alternative. The more people that know about ecigs and the ability they have of replacing a known health hazard, the better chance we have of keeping vaping as a viable working alternative.

Print a few of these out and leave them at random places like starbucks especially.
I did I will leave them here and there.
Last nigh hanging out at one of my weekly spots a guy who popped
off a few weeks ago about ecigs causing cancer.
I politely handed him one, and gave one to a fellow new vaporer..
A nice tool

It seems like the mods are slacking a little bit. When I first joined almost a year ago, I got like three or four slaps on the wrist for barely mentioning the [other plant/delivery device]. Now it seems like people are using these terms left and right on here... What gives?

I realized after you pointed it out so I changed the quote a bit. ;)

I'm sure they will catch it eventually.

I'm starting to realize, even at 34, I'm entering Clint Eastwood/get off my lawn kind of mentality to a lot of "kids" these days. Yes, I was an ignorant youth once, too. Yes, I was immature. Yes, I'm seeing things via hindsight. But what scares me to death concerning vaping are these 18, 19 year old kids who haven't really experienced the "I have to quit smoking" need for an ecig. They're all about how to modify them or make them use other substances, and that's about it. They inundate me with questions about "modifying", and I have to repeat over and over again that these are meant for a healthier alternative to cigarettes.

Head shops carry these now. Tobacco shops carry these now. They are being marketed as hookah pens and g something or other. This, in my opinion, is bad. It only reinforces the image that these are just mobile [blanks -- see, I still fear mods and the use the term "blank"].

Kids are notoriously ignorant and the last thing I want to see is some punk kid killed in an accident while using his g tsunami hookah ecig pen while driving.

It'll be the "other side" of the coin that will tarnish true use of ecigs.

Rant over, I'm shutting up now. Sorry, everyone.

I blame spelling. If it isn't spelled correctly, the eye just glazes over. Fallis? Phallus. See?
