To say those who vape in shops…

What I think vaping highlights because it makes it visible, is just how far the breath spreads from the body once exhales. The reality is we are all walking through clouds of other people's breath. You just can't see it. Certainly makes it understandable how COVID spread as rampantly as it did.

Agree, they’re not very nice - what the appeal is I’ll never know, but there are vapers who use them in appropriate places so I’m not going to judge them it’s their choice- marketing them towards young people though is a shameful travesty.

Yes, the Government is supposed to be restricting flavours and colours, which the manufacturers claim - quite implausibly - are not aimed at children. Bright dayglo colouring, bubble gum, strawberry & raspberry flavours certainly are aimed at children.

I’ve seen innumerable people vaping where it’s not permitted. Pubs, shops, buses, doctor surgeries.

I've never seen anyone vaping in shops etc, but I have in pubs. Earlier this year, I was in a pub and there were people vaping. Apparently, it's at the landlord's discretion, I had no idea.

The 2007 smoking ban doesn’t include e-cigarettes, which don’t contain tobacco and don’t have the same harmful effects as conventional cigarettes. But the smoking ban is now widely accepted, and the sight of what may at first glance appear to be cigarette smoke in a pub may be met with disapproval.

Vaping in pubs is not illegal; there are no specific laws or restrictions on vaping indoors.

I'm surprised the flight attendants didn't come down hard on the vapers TBH.

It is always very clear that you can't vape on flights.

I’ve seen innumerable people vaping where it’s not permitted. Pubs, shops, buses, doctor surgeries. The general theory seems to be that because it’s not an actual cigarette that they can do what they like with it.

Not going to lie, I’m not a fan. The garish colours and flavours are pure children’s marketing, the massive clouds of vapour aren’t necessary, and they’re just as anti-social as what they’re meant to replace. That’s without taking into account the migraine and asthma triggers. If I never have to encounter a miasma of synthetic vanilla and candy floss again I will be a happy person.

Neither of you covered yourselves in glory did you?
If you removed one of my possessions and threw it in the bin you would be following it....
But then again I don't believe everything I read on mn.

Douch flute! Thank you for that. That's what they are now called in my head. Brilliant.

Vaping hasn’t been around long enough for us to know exactly how it can affect people’s health, but I wouldn’t be surprised if people do end up getting sick or diseased from using them.

It used to be much harder to give up smoking when you could smoke everywhere. This is now where the vapers are. Never a second without their douche flute. It just makes it harder with no boundaries.

It's a trigger for migraine, for asthma and other breathing conditions, and I'm allergic to it. Very. And I'm not alone.

Some twat of a guy was vaping inside LePub the other month, looking round him first, then blowing it out downwards.

Jerk. I didn't stay.

You're walking through someone's breath all the time if there are people around!

I vape, it helped me give up smoking. It's not the same as inhaling smoke, no tar etc. I suffer with extreme anxiety and it helps me to remain calm. Probably a dummy would do the same!! I don't vape indoors, but will vape around people outside, however I only vape menthol and it doesn't smell. Call me all the names under the sun, it doesn't bother me. I prefer smelling vape vapour to some of the strong perfumes people wear, now that really gives me a headache.

Regardless of the vapour, I don't want to walk into a cloud of someone's breath 🤮

It’s horrible but I think one problem is that the laws around this are a bit unclear - as far as I understand.

I have seen people vaping on public transport. So antisocial.

I gave up a heavy smoking addiction 4 months ago and I vape (alot) low nicotine but I do! I definitely don't vape anywhere smoking is not allowed and I am also aware about vaping around others! I've never seen anyone vaping where it's not allowed? Certainly not in shops etc?

Really?? He'd have had that vape shoved Where the sun don't shine !!!

which Airline allowed this?

Yep, the sickly sweet stink is a migraine trigger. I think I red somewhere that it's also a asthma trigger. But don't worry if it doesn't affect you, just keep being that ignorant twat.

I'd be very surprised if this is a combination you've witnessed more than once. If that.

It sounds like you just thought "wouldn't it be hypocritical if someone............"

OP, I put YABU purely because of the language you used. People are not the scum if the earth because they vape, reserve that for the abusers, scammers etc.
I must be fortunate that I don't smell the fug, but agree vapers should be considerate to others, just like smokers should.

I think we have found who vapes in shops 🤣

So uptight to not expect others to be selfish
pricks.

Why pretend vaping is my thing other than scummy?

Last two times l have been on a plane people were vaping, one long haul one just to Spain. I'm a smokers if l can get on a plane for12 hours without smoking, I'm sure they manage not to vape, cabin crew could have cared less.
I'm just going to get a vape next time and do what l like

Also I prefer the smell of cigarette smoke to sickly vape smells. Cigarette smoke somehow makes me nostalgic

YANBU. Selfish, scummy pricks. I’ve seen it in children’s play centres!. I challenge them or tell a member of staff

I doubt there’s much crossover between the people who frown on dummies and the people who vape.
