Honestly, I was at an indoor event with live music just this past weekend. They had a fog machine (a real one, that’s not a metaphor), and I saw at least one person get up on stage during one of the performances, and in the middle of the performances, they whipped out their vape and took a big rip literally in front of hundreds of people, including staff at the facility and everything. Nobody gave a shit.
If you’re just sitting in a corridor and chugging on a vape, I’m pretty sure someone will care, but if you take the odd puff, and you’re not in people’s faces about it then it’s unlikely anyone will give enough of a shit to say anything.
Aside from that, I want to amplify that there is a residue from vaping, it is very little compared to cigarettes or any other combustible tobacco/nicotine product. I usually notice it the most in my car. It makes the windows look almost oily…
I wouldn’t say it’s particularly difficult to get off of the surfaces, after all, e-juice is water soluble. I’m not saying it’s easy, just not hard, especially if you compare to the tar from combustible tobacco products…
The anecdote is especially funny to me because fog machines are essentially giant vapes, down to using similar ingredients, so it stands to reason that folks wouldn’t care much in that scenario. Agreed wholeheartedly all around.
Yup, I can confirm that fog machines use basically the same components, technology and ingredients as vapes, aside from the obvious (, nicotine/flavoring).
As someone who does vape, I can tell you for a fact it does leave a residue. It takes a LONG time to build up, and even then it’s only really noticeable on transparent things like glass, but it’s a pain to clean off without specific cleaners. Otherwise it looks perpetually smeared. Best to avoid it so the employees don’t have to guess why their windows won’t clean right.
Well to be honest if it was perfectly acceptable it would lose its flavour. Sometimes we just do things we can get away with and that’s the whole charm. Make it commonplace smoke clouds everywhere and it’s just lame
Legalise weed and suddenly it is not that fun because avoiding the police was the whole half of the charm
Make illegal to drink water and suddenly everyone is over hydrated
It’s just such a feeling to do things you technically are forbidden. Some kind of intoxicating drug in itself. I don’t even like incest but it’s so taboo that it becomes extremely hot hence the certain indie game popularity
We
love the forbidden
Sometimes I even think communist regime coming back wouldn’t be that bad because we could have the pleasure of personal rebellion. Voting is pleasurable and all but it doesn’t pack the same punch.
I am very jealous of Americans in 2025. Me here, I already live in as perfect country as it gets so it’s hard to find a good thing to protest but you have a prime opportunity over and over from BLM to other things.
Well one can always annoy Chinese 🇨🇳 gov dogs as they seem to feel a bit too comfortable online lately
You seem like the type whose college-age room is covered in blacklight posters, and tells their younger sibling’s friends about how the Mayans invented cell phones.
A lot of them also vape in the building when they think they won’t get caught
Who cares, it doesn’t even smell like anything, let alone in the ballpark of cigs
I am more annoyed by stinky heavy perfumes. Let’s tell people who enter buildings smelling like whole periodic table to think about their life.
I am routinely pinching my nose with my fingers near them and staring but they rarely get the memo.
Nothing worse when someone enters on 0 floor and you smell C16H14O2 on the tenth
do you exist?
Plenty don’t smell like anything
Found the vaper

They’re just… Industrial sized.

He’s definitely the history channel alien guy
I didn’t expect to be showered in compliments today, thank you
