15 Things You Should Never Say To a Vaper
1. “So, when are you giving up?”
2. “What’s your favourite oil?”
3. “Those things are far more addictive than real cigarettes.”
4. “You can’t use that in here!”
5. “I just decided to quit without any help!”
6. “Think of the children!”
7. “Why don’t you just quit?”
8. “I didn’t realise you were still a smoker!”
9. “Those things are worse than fags. I know it must be true cos’ I read it in the Daily Mail.”
10. “What flavour is that – clown farts?”
11. “Are you still on those joke fags?”
12. “I just used willpower to quit!”
13. “You just don’t know what’s in those things!”
14. “So, how much have you saved vaping?”
15. What kind of vape pen is that?

Can I get a few drags? (umm no you smell like piss and have cold sores)
How high can you get with that? (not since that vaporizer is at home)
Whats the point? (so I do not splatter your brains over the concrete for being a fucking moron and bothering me while I enjoy my pass time)
*Fake cough* Those stink! (then proceed to get a drink from the fountain that the bum just got done washing his filthy ass in... REVENGE is mine!)

And then there is "that guy" that sees your cloud (big or small, it doesn't matter) from 50 feet away, and starts waving his arms in the air, and the cloud is long gone before he even gets 1/3 of the way to where you are standing..
And then, YOU have to resist the urge to stop him and say.... Excuse me sir, I noticed you were in a bit of distress. I just want to let you know, there are no bugs on you. They aren't real. You are only imagining them in your head. Now just have a seat and relax. I'll call for help and stay here with you until the ambulance comes. There there.. it will be ok.. The nice drivers won't let any bugs get you....

Number 4 is valid. If you can't smoke inside a place you shouldn't vape there either.
I file that under being considerate to other people. Not everyone wants to know I am vaping strawberries and cream today.

The 'explode' thing is always a real winner. Had a family member stay with us last weekend, yep, got to explain the in's and out's of batteries, what causes them to explode, and all that. Defending the hobby, it's my second hobby.

And a good retort to any of those is, "You do understand by definition that half the people of the world are below average intelligence? Which half are you in?"
Median* intelligence, actually. Not that 90% of people know that. Or that 9.999% of the rest care. Lol

Had a blob tell me as he rolled a diy from discarded butts that a friend of a friend died from the vapor getting trapped in his lungs. Proceeded to wet cough up a chunk of something after he told me that with a straight face.

Should have asked the person's name and said you were going to google the story.

"He, uhh, he was a very private person. I wouldn't want to- no, uhh, I don't have to tell you that! What're you calling me a liar?" Cue victim card aaaand call it done. People really hate being called out on BS stories.

For whatever reason, I have been spared stupid comments and questions.

While I personally don't buy it, I have been told that to those that don't know me I can come off as not being very "approachable" or "Imposing".

But I do remember being at an airport waiting for my flight, just sitting there reading and enjoying a pretty cloud free vape when a gentleman approached me and simply asked....

"What is that thing and can you tell me about it?".

Not sure but I may have made a convert.

It's your breath, the fetid smell of a musty grave, stale blood, and the lingering odor of death and unicorn milk.
People seem to be getting more informed about vaping, and want to know more, either for them selves or a smoker they know.

ROTFLMAO..
What're you calling me a liar?
No, I'm calling you an idiot and you should learn to know what you are talking about before opening your mouth. Just because you are gullible, doesn't mean you have to prove it to me.

And OH YES I WOULD!

Or when they are 20 feet away and start coughing in a high wind... "That's a pretty convincing cough. Can you fake orgasms like that too?" or "Is my vapor making you cough? What flavor is it? "
LOL... what bothers me, is I was using my toptank mini. Basically, a beginners tank after coming off pen style vapes. Not known for massive clouds by any means. I WISH I had been using my MutationX V4... I use a cloud chucking build in that little beast. LOL

I carry two or three at all times. If I get someone next to me who's coughing and waving away (nonexistant) smoke I switch to my CLOUD CHUCKER!! If they are going to act like an ass I'll give them a reason to do so.

I had a conversation just the other day with a guy who saw my mod and inquired about it, as he wants to stop smoking. He said the usual stuff he's heard about it doing damage. I quickly explained diketones and how to avoid them. He then said, well it's possible that it could still be harmful. I told him that we know that cigarettes will kill you and that vaping "may" cause harm. Which do you think is better?

It seems round here, it goes through phases, for a few weeks people will compliment about my vaping, for example when waiting for a bus I have had many older people ask me about my mod, and also commented that it smells lovely. I think I may of helped a few people convert too, as they asked for some names of mods and tanks to get started, and also about batteries.

Then there is the other end of the spectrum. I have had it mostly with people coming out of pubs, really drunk in groups. Usually it goes along the lines of " You know they are worse than actual cigarettes/ Popcorn lung/ you are going to blow up".

I have tried to educate these people but it is like talking to a brick wall. I have found something that usually shuts them up now though about the blowing up comment- I ask if they have a laptop. One of the group always says yes. I ask if they use it on their lap.
When they reply "Yes"- I tell them their laptop has a lot more of exactly the same batteries as in my mod, and they use it right on their crown jewels. This has shut many of them up, and also quite a few of them have got laughed at by their friends upon hearing this.

Lmao, I've not had anyone suggest it's made with antifreeze. I wouldn't be able to resist replying 'yea well I don't use shitty dexcool so no worries, my tank won't leak bro'. Vaping oil, that's different. I guess it's kind of oily but not like 40w or anything lol. I've seen a few people give me odd looks in parking lots, they crane their head all the way around until it's damn near upside down like a bird or owl or something. Cracks me up.

Next on my to-do list is pocket my mod with tight pants on. Wait for someone to look down at my pocket so I can whisper "don't worry, just happy to see you". :p

Technically speaking, it is. Propylene Glycol is used as an antifreeze for machines operating in very cold conditions near food, such as a frozen food processing plant. They use it because it is safe and will not contaminate the product if any leaks. So basically, the idiot that mentioned it being antifreeze has been eating it in TV dinners since.. well. my first TV dinner was like 46 years ago.
