LOL, okay so what about when you drink a beer? c'mon, wouldnt you love to vape a tobacco juice? ....desserts just taste gross when i drink a beer and vape pie or something.

I kind of want to add tobacco juices to my list of pet hatreds. They all just remind me of how bad lucky strikes taste now, when a few months ago I would have called that blasphemy.

My health is priceless. I use that over and over when my mom sees me get vapemail every week. That or "how much are you spending on that stuff?"..... Less than a COPD or lung cancer treatment would be.

At my current rate, I'm saving enough money to buy seven provaris every year and start a fresh boge cargomizer every day……and that would still be a little in the black compared to the lucky strikes I used to smoke. Well…not with expedited shipping, but drop it to 6 provaris a year and use budget shipping and that'd probably take care of it (haven't actually done the math on that side).

I'm new. But that sounds pretty cheap to me.

Sitting down, facing forward.
Given the general level of public ignorance and the amount of suspicion that is evident by both Governmental Agencies and the general public, that wasn't all that surprising. Maybe a little more "decorum" on the part of the vaper would have helped as well. What we consider "normal" activities can appear threatening to the uninformed since vaping and all of its rituals aren't very "mainstream" yet.

Yeah, this has been said before, but bears repeating:

Video Intro lengths over 10 seconds long - yes, we know you put a lot of thought and effort into putting the 3 minute montage together; yes, it looks cool; but it gets old VERY quickly.

Video intro volume: 99 (Hurts eardrums and wakes kids)
Video content volume: 2 (can't hear a damn thing even with volume boosted!)

I can't stand the fact that e-cig terrorists are giving us all a bad name...or are they just lousy stealth vapers?

Electronic cigarette sparks bus terror scare

I'd blame this more on the level of paranoia in the country (really world) right now (although being a conscientious vaper certainly wouldn't hurt any...) Anyone remember the Aqua Teen Hunger Force terrorist scare? Yeah....

Yeah…I think that was just dumb.

If people ask you not to do something or it would be dumb…just don't do it or ask. I know one of the biggest advantages of vaping is being able to do it anywhere, but if there's no reason not to…what's wrong with going outside or just waiting 'till you're not on a bus?

I hung out with Phil 2 weekends ago at a small vape meet. He is funny as hell and a great guy. As far as some of the other reviewers on youtube go, :facepalm:. Some of these people are downright creepy. I hope people looking to switch to vaping don't get turned off after seeing some of these freakshows:p

Thats what bothers me -
When I was a green noob I went to these vids to get some understanding of vaping, hardware, ect,
They almost put me off totally - I began wonder that I had entered into some dark subculture, where the members lived underground and sacrificed chickens.
Later came across Tropical Bob and Mistress Nomad and a few other presenters who just sat there and talked- like normal people-:laugh: Oh and ECF- nicest people you could meet anywhere!

My per peeve may seem exceedingly petty, however, when reading glowing ratings about a product and finding the dreaded "out of stock, or notify me " signs for extended periods makes me wonder where the profit motive resides on the e cig supplier world. I have been vaping for 8 months and on some sites, i must miss the availability, there are some products that are perpetually sold out....Or so it seems.

i've mentioned it in another thread and i'll mention it once more: anyone remember the aqua teen hunger force lite brite promotions that erupted in a bomb scare?
i'm reminded of this event. secretiveness is met with suspicion, and we're proving ourselves to be a culture prone to panic and fear.

Oh yeah, I totally see how you could relate those things!
