What an asinine retort.

I did not confront the folks vaping nor make a beeline to call security. I made an observation about how WEAK these folks were and posted it here. Folks do not need my approval to do anything.

As I said in a followup, the music is not as much the problem as the need to crank their knockoff speaker so loud as to distort whatever is being played. I know the kids love walkup music but folks on the field on the other side of the facility do not need to hear it.

And if you think vaping in the dugout with kids is ok then you have issues.

Yea, this entire board was created on observing the physical world around us and bringing those observations here for discussion.

Then you get: "Why do you care what a man does?" "Why do you care what a man wears?"

I don't, just making an observation that vaping makes you look like you are sucking on a pacifier.

Took that last line out. Not meaning to be a keyboard warrior. Just annoyed at folks that seem to be annoyed at people having opinions on a board bullt on opinions and observations.

100% in agreement. I disagreed with you on vaping, but this notion that we shouldn't observe and critique things we think make people look like jackasses is frickin' stupid IMO. Posts saying that add absolutely nothing to the board / my day / the corpus of human knowledge. When people post that shite, I just figure they must be doing some goofy, stereotypical shite themselves.

It's that they are so brazen about it.

It's as annoying as smoking and should be treated the same. (And I've been known to hack a dart.)

Things get on my nerves easily, but I don't notice vaping. Probably because I can't hear anything. Noises are what gets me.

Cigarettes are more disgusting, but generally people vaping are trashier than people smoking. Mostly has to do with people vaping don't seem to view it the same as smoking and don't follow the same rules.

Very incorrect.

Vape is Nicotine, PG, VG and food flavoring.

PG is propylene glycol like used in a hospital.
VG is vegetable glycerin.

Nothing harmful at all in vape.

On the other hand, cigerettes contain over 3,000 chemicals in them, JUST to keep you addicted...

Unbelievable. My Braxton better be coached by someone who dips or chews tobacco. Not by someone who does those sissy, fruity flavored vapes.

"Aerosols from vaping contain heavy metals and ultrafine particles," Islam said. "If somebody else is vaping in the same area, you're breathing it – those particles are entering your lungs, where they can do damage."

In addition to nicotine, the aerosols include heavy metals such as lead, nickel and zinc, cancer-causing substances such as benzene, and diacetyl, which has been linked with a condition nicknamed "popcorn lung" in people who vape.

I remember when the whole concept of vapes were invented.

The concept was that it could be done with little or no smoke and would not bother anyone. I great concept, as stated.

I would see people smoking a vape and you could barely tell they were doing it.

Fast-forward to today, and these people create 10 times the smoke as a cigarette and the smell is just as bad (second-hand cotton candy? fricking gross).

It's almost like they create even more smoke on purpose, as a point of pride.

It's so fricking trashy. I actually respect cigarette smokers more.


Holy shite.

There is no smoke unless they are vaping very very very wrong.

Thats a complete lie by the cigerette companies. None of those are in e-liquid.
I have made and sold over literally a million bottles sold in 22 countries.

Your info is false. The oldest body of medicine says so. The Royal College of Physicans. In the U.K. Doctors prescribe vaping to people to quit and it's sold in the hospitals... Butter flavor is diacetyl. It's delicious and on your popcorn but no one uses in vape. I wish they did... It's harmless and yummy.


There has never been a single incident of popcorn lung from vaping ever.
Two men that worked in a popcorn factory got it from working there. Thus the name.

No heavy metals, lead, nickel, zinc, or cancer-causing substances such as benzene

Everything you mentioned is Big Tobbacco propaganda. Vaping hurt their bottom line big time. That's why they are devoting more towards new vaping products than cigerettes.

They just want you to buy your vape from Big Tobacco, from now on.

I now find joy in seeing someone smoking a cigarette as I know they haven’t caved to becoming a vaper.
