I've seen everyone doing it. The devices are a bit clunky right now. Give them a few generations to miniaturize.

Just looks weird. Not cool at all. Burning thing in your mouth... that's cool. Vaping.... just weird.

When nerds do it, it's kind of funny. They mod the shit out of their little pipe thingies and it's becoming literal "steampunk".

Will that even matter, though? Even if they were invisible you would still have a grown-ass man suddenly exhaling a cloud of whatever just because he needs his fix.

I dunno. Just looks/feels totally different than seeing someone SMOKING. It's probably all in my head.

I see little to none. Vape users also don't smell perpetually of old women at bingo halls, either.

Like I said, it's just my own perception. I think vaping looks weird.

I agree with you. It's like the difference between someone on a Vespa scooter and someone on a Harley. The guy with the real cigarette is really committed to his bad habit. He isn't going to puss out by going the "safe" route.

The dude with the vape is getting more of the chemical he wants while leaving the other useless, inefficient, toxic byproducts out. He also isn't being a dick leaving around ciggie butts.

Nah. I've got the stuff and I will again someday, but even though I went a full month without real cigarettes I slipped back into that habit over time and stopped vaping. I'm back up to a pack a day when I'm off work.

When I get ready to quit, at least now I know I have a good way to do it.

Having seen it done in the wild a few times, I've decided that people look really dumb when they are vaping. A long draw from a plastic dick then a huge butt of vapor gets exhaled.

I keep forgetting about the cloud-to-butt extension I have installed. I remember where it's coming from when it works as intended (i.e. "we keep your data safe in our butt") but when checking the weather or subjects like this come up I get confused for a few minutes. I was actually googling the other day to try to figure out what "Partly Butty" weather was before I remembered.

He has a text filter that changes 'cloud' to 'butt' because cloud computing is a joke.

Vape pen explodes.

Best line I've ever heard on this topic is: "The hardest part about vaping is telling your dad you're gay."

New study shows immediate damage done by vaping.

Which then completely reverses and they have no idea if there is a permanent negative effect here or not...

So why is this the top story on CNN? Must be a slow news day.

Nanny state bans vaping.

"Vaping."

I never had an opinion on the safety of vaping. I just thought it was a little premature to insist it was safe.

This scientist says maybe no one should vape pot
"The truth is that in every case so far in which a specific e-liquid has been identified, that product has been a THC-containing e-liquid, typically purchased off the street and often in open cartridges such that they could contain a contaminant or other drug," Siegel said.
Let me tell you about things you should not buy on the street, first of all... 1) anything you don't know exactly what the fuck it is. Like mystery liquids.
