Vaped crusader

Maybe so, but someone felt that they REALLY needed to vape a bunch of whatever before/during the movie. As a youth I smoked a bit of something or other in various arthouse theaters, ahem, so… but not at a cineplex with kids.

kids these days! and way back when, IF ya know what I mean.

I can recall dropping some low pH and watching a oingo boingo movie that was in black and white about skeletons and and and… not the case.

Better risking that than living in an annoying bubblewrapped padded world where one cannot fart without having to fill a form and/or get a permit.

If your doctor is recommending that, you should get a second opinion.

It’s you who seems to be recommending that, and I am the one who has the second opinion.

My Husband vapes. And occasionally it does trigger my alergies. This is with my back turned to him in the same room.

But then again that lady that shops on Saturday afternoons at Trader Joes that fucken baths in Patchouli and Sandalwood stuff that she practically leaves a visible sent trail down the aisles does the same thing for me.

Elfman attacks the theater screen with a perverse, black and white fairy tale that seems like it was written by a troubled teenager while switching back and forth between his science fiction magazines and his father’s porno.

In the same way you can be rude without using a vaporizer?

If you sell one that vapourises congressmen, then yes. Use that one.

I saw something similar in a MAD magazine decades ago, smokers had to wear some kind of fish bowl.

I kind of assumed thats what he meant by “medicine of the future”.

If we get to ban vaping because people think the smell is obnoxious, do we also get to ban patchouli oil, Calvin Klein Obsession, and Axe body spray because I think those smells are foul? Or, do we take a step back and agree that some people like some things that others don’t and perhaps not liking something isn’t grounds for banning it?
Consider how many things have been banned because it offended people who don’t think anyone has a right to offend them - are we still so childish as a nation that we can’t learn to deal with the fact that we share the world with people who are different from us?

Al Jaffee was so ahead of his time. I think some of the “inventions” from back then may have come to life.

So here is why I hate Vaping…or more specifically Vapers.

I am a cigar smoker. I have about 10-12 per year. Probably doesn’t making me a heavy consumer sure, but I enjoy them. And like all things that are inherently enjoyable but not healthy it requires moderation. I am acutely aware of the effects of it on myself and of those around me. I do not randomly light a cigar any place I damn well feel like and puff away with disregard for those around me or my surroundings.

Vapers do this exact thing. And they hide behind the notion that it is harmless water vapor.

My spit is harmless fluid, you don’t see me spitting every where and claiming its harmless.

If people who vape did so under the same constraints as other “smokers” then I would not take issue with it. Its a choice, they would be following the agreed upon standards and practices, not my cup of tea but totally their right. But vapers don’t follow those common courtesies. Vapers feel they are beyond that. This tool bag perfectly illustrates the point.

So, your problem with it is that not everyone follows the rules you have laid down for yourself? People who use vapes don’t behave the way you think they should?

The issue is more that it is a confirmation bias insomuch as the only people considered “vapers” are those who are flagrantly being jerks. In this case, vapers who don’t do those things don’t exist and are invisible.
