Gabriela Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Do I need to ask my officemates if it's cool to vape in the office? Is it unprofessional for me to vape in the classroom (as the teacher)? If my landlady forbids smoking in my apartment, can I still vape inside? Should one ask to vape in a restaurant? And I can totally vape at Mass, right? ;-) Does anyone have vaping etiquette horror stories? Or just "no one really seems to care once they know it's not a cigarette" experiences? Have been vaping two days. Don't know what's ok... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
God the Father Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I have a secondhand story about a guy who started puffing on a digital cigarette in class and the professor was like "uh...you can't smoke in here" and then my friend was just like "relax, it's fake." I realize this is no help to you but remember this: you didn't start smoking because you wanted to follow the rules. Just because you want to start being healthy doesn't mean you need to also start being square. So just puff on your computer cig and if somebody looks at you funny, just caress the lapel on your leather jacket and stare straight back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truthfinder Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I wouldn't do it anywhere smoking is not allowed. I think it is common courtesy for those around you, regardless if it's 'real' or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgiiMichael Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I think I agree with Truthfinder. In general public areas, only vape away from other people. Unless you have a blatantly un-cigarette-like ecigarette. I've seen shiny black ones with a blue glowing end, in which case, it might be more acceptable. Test the waters. Ask those around you. They'll probably be accommodating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlySunshine Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) I once saw a lady puffing on an e-cigarette in the food court at the mall. Smoking is strictly prohibited indoors and near entrances. It was at a time when e-cigs were brand new so I had to do a double take. My reaction was pretty strong, too. It really caught me off guard. I don't think people should bring e-cigs into public places. The lady acted like it was some common thing. What does that tell kids who see her doing that? The really bad thing was her e-cig looked identical to a real cigarette which made it worse. :( Edited July 9, 2013 by MaterMisericordiae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlySunshine Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 On the other hand, you aren't blowing around second hand smoke and you won't stink from the odor. I'm not really sure. I think it's definitely common courtesy to not do it where it is taboo and ask others if it's OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Not sure about where, but whatever you are make sure you blow the vapor right into people's faces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ContemporaryCaflicCrusader Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Don't ask for a ride and go to smoke a butt two seconds before you would go sit in my car. Smoke it when you go home (In this instance it was a short ride, he mighta been able to walk if it wasn't dark.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ardillacid Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 There was this great episode of Seinfield where George got in trouble for vaping somewhere he shouldn't have. Great and Seinfeld are two words that don't belong in the same sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoke it when you go home (In this instance it was a short ride, he mighta been able to walk if it wasn't dark.) Electronic cigarettes produce neither butts nor odor. My uptight Calvinist friend even allowed me to vape in her car. Edited July 9, 2013 by curiousing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
