Well, Kat will have to jump in and correct me (and if I'm wrong, please do) but I don't think she actually made up the term, I think she just took and and ran with it. Though I haven't had any luck finding the source, it was my understanding that it was first used by someone who intended it as an insult, in a thread where he/she was basically saying that anyone who didn't vape at higher power was somehow not a real vaper.
Again, please correct me if I'm wrong, but that is what I thought I had read somewhere.
