I blame the hipsters with handlebar mustaches. They are the problem, imo.

But.... but.... I've been rocking this look for the past fifteen years!!! I'm not a hipster! I was here first!

Just like you see memes online about how vegans or crossfitters or gluten free people are .......s, it's because there's a tiny, but vocal minority in those groups who make what they're doing into everyone elses business and don't shut the .... up about it ever.
Now... you may be surprised to hear, there's memes about vapers being .......s too, because there's a small minority of us who never shut the .... up about it and or are the kind of dick who has to vape in every building they enter because "it's not illegal and it's not smoke man!" or do .... like blow clouds on a ....ing bus. Some people are really sensitive to smells (I myself can't go near the perfume section of a store without barfing for instance)
Just like nobody notices or cares about the vegans who keep their diet off facebook, nobody notices the vapers that aren't douchenozzles in public and then these types of memes and posts start to come up.

Smokers who "educate" me that vaping is worse than smoking because they read it somewhere. Nuff said.

I have run into this favorite ANTZ lie many times in public and at work. I do my best to counter it. Sometimes I'm successful, sometimes not. Sometimes their cup is already full, and they hate vaping because they hate smoking, and are not willing to listen.

Reminder: Why we don't allow drug talk

I've had to clean up a lot of posts and quotes of posts. :facepalm:

We are trying VERY hard to not be a forum that people have to leave because of the content. Some of you know better :grr: We do Not want this forum to be searchable for drug content.

This concludes my seemingly regularly scheduled public service announcement.

Thank you for your time :D

Having been a smoker for 50 years I obviously know how I reacted when I heard about vaping. I wish I could be confident that if I had never smoked I would have a positive and knowledgeable attitude to vaping today. Not sure if that's true though. Maybe I would have bought into the propaganda like so many others have. Years ago when I came across vaping I didn't have to fight my way through all the negative propaganda that's out there now. Would I have been able to see through it?

People who have been friends for years, and aren't particularly closed minded in general, think I've jumped from the frying pan into the fire. Nothing I say changes their opinion, they want to save me. Other folks I talked to and they have come around, a few even picked it up themselves. You never can tell.

The root problem is Fakebook itself. It is nothing but a cesspool of political correctness. Glad I am not, nor will I ever be, one of Zuckerberg's products. My REAL friends know how to get ahold of me. :)

Man, I'm glad I live in such a small town, insulated from all of these db's you're all running across. (Atlanta). In the past 4 years, I've yet to run across any of these radicals. Not one public incident. No fake coughers, no hand wavers, no public spokespersons on the evils of vaping...not even a Cereal ISLE Cloud chucker. Not even one rude restaurant vaper. I feel left out.

do you think it's "good for vaping" when ejuice manufacturers are naming ejuice "druggie" names, like:

{Moderated}. {Moderated}. {Moderated}.

I'm often quite embarassed by this nonsense. I can't be "associated" with stuff like that.

Thank goodness the moderators were able to save you from further association/embarrassment.

Though I'm kinda down for a juice called "moderated." LOL.

Since when is Atlanta considered a small town?

*snicker*

Lol.

Anyway, are we not allowed to say the names of actual ejuices because they may have other connotations?

If they don't follow forum rules, no. Just as a registered supplier cannot have liquids that go against forum rules. Websites are vetted before they can become a registered forum supplier. If in doubt, don't ;)

Still wanna try? Ask me first :D

this just makes me mad, it is hard to support and have faith in an industry that thinks so little of their customers.

In a growing industry, sometimes a manufacturer/marketer tries to do something to make their product "pop" to get ahead of the pack. Everyone wants their share of the pie.
Sometimes they make bad or controversial decisions.
I wouldn't paint the entire industry with the same brush, we do have good guys out there, but bad news gets headlines.
