What are your Vaping Pet Hates ;)

[HawkeyeFLA]

The frequent bickering over products.

1. Which is better?
2. What is THE BEST?
3. X sucks but Y is great.
4. Y sucks but X is great.
5. Etc., etc., etc..

Did anyone ever bicker over which was better, Marlboro or Camel? WHO CARES!?!?

OK. I feel better now. Thank you.

Camel of course.

 

[awsum140]

Camel of course.

ROFLMAO

MARLBORO of course!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[thinkingaboutit]

My sense of smell is returning. How can those cute little furballs have such pungent urine???

LMAO. Actually, I have seen it once from a guy I work with. Apparently "special blends" are really special. *eyeroll*

 

[meeems]

Hahahahahah, I'd go with Marlboro too, Marlboro Light'.

Camel of course.

 

[Barto]

It all boils down to personal taste I'll say!

 

[DPLongo22]

Camel of course.

You know, I almost ended it with, "Besides, everybody knows that Marlboro is better"...

[when I was new, creepy reviewers] almost put me off totally - I began wonder that I had entered into some dark subculture, where the members lived underground and sacrificed chickens.

Are you kidding? That's one of the reasons I'm here. Well, okay…not all of them.

All the time. it was funny because no one ever won……which makes sense because they both kinda suck.

SERIOUSLY??? I smoked from (approx.) 1976 through 2011. I never heard anyone argue about their smokes. Maybe's it's a geographical thing?

And YES, they most certainly DO both suck.

People who are overly self-righteous about the "harm reduction" thing & literally think they are saving the world by converting others to e-cigs.

People who support draconian censorship online and IRL because saying the "wrong things" will make vapers "look bad" to the anti's.

People who "never clean cartomizers" because "they are so cheap I switch them every day". Money is money dawg & just because cigarettes were outrageously expensive does not make everything else cheap except in comparison. Many of us cannot afford $1.50 or more a day for cartos & would certainly like to see the power of the market drive down prices; if people are not concerned about money, prices will never decrease & will likely go up very quickly.

People who are waaaaay too into mods/tech, like "Oh dude, I can't even vape unless I am using a 24 volt variable-wattage iPad mod with a printer that continuously spits out line chart readings (like a polygraph) showing my wattage, ohms...etc, and I only use the new quad-coil clearotankoattymizer2068-7G-Batch 4 which are handmade by the English Queen and not available to the general public. You use an EEEEEEGOOOOOOOOO??? Dude, If I had to defile my greatness with that filth I think I would vomit out my guts and die on the spot; you might as well vape cat poop from a car exhaust pipe."

People who take juice way too seriously; must be kept in glass bottles of a specific shape & only transferred with a robotic needle dropper and it has to be stored between 44-45 Kelvin at an altitude of 3000 meters and shaken 10x daily and it must be this color and cannot be that color and if it touches sunlight for one second it is RUINED! I don't know how these people ever actually manage to vape the stuff.

People who do that former smoker thing & complain all the time about how cigarettes are ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING and they CANNOT be around smokers at all and they are no longer friends with anyone who smokes and anyone who vapes but still has analogs ever is SATAN.

People who feel the need to switch flavors every ten seconds. Pick one and enjoy it for a bit yo.

People who are overly pretentious about their need to try every juice ever made out of every mod ever created: Unless Professor Oak told you to go catch them all, I am only moderately interested.

TLDR: Vapers.

Best post. Whole thread.
Although i have to admit, i am one of those "flavour changers". I haven't found my daily yet

Different things work for different people, and different things work for different situations! All that really matters is that each person finds what works best for them. I find all the arguing over what is best to be very off-putting. DH and I have found a few simple things that we love, and those items work very well for US. That doesn't mean they're the best or will even work remotely well for others or their situation. So we find the arguing and bickering ridiculous.

Like right now my Sister who's in a different state than us wants to quit smoking...she has started using disposable ecigs already on her own. We want to get her set up with good equipment that will keep her going, but like I said, she is in another state, so it has to be equipment she can use easily by herself. So we're trying to work out what to get her...and while we know what WE love(and what works for US), we also know that much of it would not be ideal to send to her to get her started.

So that's really our pet peeve....there is no best, and no need to argue over the best. There's room at the table for everyone! I'm just thankful there are so many different options available to meet so many different people's needs........

I'd say that's about as well as it could be stated. Nicely done!

And "everybody" would b eWRONG.

Heh, I keed, I keed.

People who think it's somehow weird to not want an all-day everyday vape.

Millions of people eat rice for breakfast, lunch and dinner, too. That may appeal to you, but I'm not sure why you think it's silly of me to prefer variety.

I agree with you their.
some people bought the same smokes daily though and i can see how they're used to consistency. plus there certainly are some yucky juices (bacon i'm looking at you)

however, i bought different smokes and dip and snus everyday so i prefer variety

 

[betsyj121]

I am posting a pet peeve from my friend who can't post yet...

I feel ostracized by those who judge me for being a non-smoker who enjoys vaping 0mg juices. I have various reasons for doing so plus I just enjoy it. I don't ask that you understand, just that you don't judge.

 

[Rikaroo]

Pet Peeve---The whole "do e-cig users really get nicotine from the vapor etc. and so on argument"
DO people really think vapers don't get nic?

I got to cut down, walking around all day with my head swimming from vaping too much is probably not a good thing
(or is it? ;-)

Now wheres my mod? lol

 

[Turnip]

For very beginners they need videos that will help them get started, just basic things,
There are few of those , and many with reviews that new vapers will just find confusing.
I no longer watch them, I just remember what it was like trying to get basic information.
(Didnt even know how to charge the batteries apart from the rest of it)

 

[meeems]

i Concur as well. I got sick of my favorite juice, because its all i vaped on for 6 months, now i cant even stomach the stuff. I wish i'd vaped other juices as well, i might still like the favorite...now ex favorite'.

"All's" I can say to that is:
Thank GOD for PBusardo, SteelJan, Grimm Green, etc., etc., etc..
