My mother-in-law, the saint that she is, dropped by for a visit yesterday. She's willfully ignorant regarding vaping and constantly tells my wife I didn't really quit smoking because vapor looks like smoke. I've explained it to her a couple of times already and now I mostly just ignore her.

Well, last night she decided to rant directly to me about my vaping. I explained, once again, that vapor is not smoke. Her response was "Well, it *looks* like smoke so it MUST be smoke!" to which I replied "Well, that Baby Ruth you are eating *looks* like a dog turd, so...".

Conversation abruptly ended at that point.

Haha that's epic! Sounds like that's the same mentality that she has about vaping. That's such an awesome response though!

I had a friend who was the same way about vaping. Guess who vapes now? lol I find the longer I have been vaping others are more interested now because they see it works because they know I haven't smoked. Others see I don't cough and hack anymore along with I have more umfff to do things. Just keep vaping and ignore others who are not supportive because you never know as they might just come around in their negative thoughts will become positive.

Pix of her face... 1 second before, and right after...

Seriously though... anger management would have been required for me if someone said something like that to me.

I don't know what effect this would have on your relationship or such... but I would be getting ready for the next visit... pasting her picture all over a newly bought dictionary, everywhere I thought it could apply. Actually, now that I think of it... I think that could make an awesome custom gag gift. Something mail order where they slip in pages with a print of 1 or more pictures of people you send in as examples of various words.
