There is a gentleman you have just sat down next to
You do not know him.
He pulls out a vaping thing and you look at it
He takes that as an invitation to tell you the wattage, the type of liquid used, the fact that he tweaked it to run hotter than intended and that he almost burned it out but its cool he thinks he got the kinks out oh also my vaper is competition grade and I've won awards for my vaping and
I am skeptical as to this persons existence
Seems a little straw-manny?
I mean. I don't particularly care either way?
I just don't find it funny when the guys rail on about it the way they do. I just shrug
Also vaping is far more harmless than anime
It happened to me Last weekend
The same gentleman also began vaping during church service
I asked him to stop and he told me oh its ok its just water vapor so its fine don't worry
Like this isn't new behavior for assholes
but its the newest thing for assholes to preen over and talk about how cool it is and tell you know man you just don't understand how behind the times you are this is totally cool now

oh that seems
fairly shitty.
I do need to stop that habit I have of not wanting to believe something/somebody exists if I can't picture somebody being that shitty.
Also it's probably maybe fine but long term studies haven't been conducted yet! If you don't know for sure maybe don't be a dick all up in peoples faces with it!
My manager at my new job did that just this past night
We were making small talk and I asked if he watched any TV and he said he watched a bunch of anime
I said I watched Attack on Titan a few months ago and he took this as meaning I wanted to know about every show he has watched in the past year and their basic plot summaries and why they are better than most other shows on TV
This is of course not to say that everyone who vapes is an asshole
Its just a new venue for the same beer asshole, music asshole, etc etc to pull the same crap they've pulled since someone invented self satisfaction and snobbery
Bombcast continually complaining about "vape culture" is just
the dumbest thing to me.
Whoooo caaaaarresss.
Maybe the people they experience are more annoying than anybody around here or something.
They are doing a bit.
People getting super into a ridiculous hobby is funny.
I really liked when one of them (Brad?) was talking about asking for coffee machine recommendations and Will Smith, completely straight-faced, suggested insane 3-400 dollar ones without a second thought
People being completely oblivious to their own ridiculous hobbies is the best
It could also just be my brain editing stuff so I don't remember it
or maybe
maybe I'm that guy
Well
There's also a difference between being a dude whose just like so fucking into Pokemon that he can't even imagine someone might not be and he wants to share his joy
And the dude who wants to show off his knowledge of Pokemon and use it to elevate himself above someone else
The line between oblivious geek and snob is totally there
I'm pretty sure that at least some of Jeff's preoccupation with vape-culture comes from the series of YouTube videos where Liam Lynch does a vape-enthusiast character (I think his name is RAVENVAPES).
They're pretty funny bits of character work. The first time he exhaled a cloud of vapor and it formed the smoky silhouette of a hawk, complete with sound effect, I knew I was in for a ride.
I managed to make it through the episode, it's honestly extrmely funny. I only got emotional during Scott's into and then at the very end there's like a compilation of some of Harris's best moments from the show (and a couple from UTU2TM? and Analyze Phish as well) which kinda drove it home that he was really gone.
I would reccomend people give it a try though, I can't think of a better way to say goodbye to Harris Wittels than to laugh at his excruciating story about a blowjob he got in a movie theatre.
I think I've seen like two people vaping ever where I live, which is a welcome change of pace from Japan where it was still legal to smoke indoors and in restaraunts and stuff.
I guess my equivalent person were the foreigners who would smoke indoors at all foreigner work get togethers and stuff because it was allowed despite knowing that half the people there hated it. I'd usually ask them to go outside and generally they did but some folks got real self righteous about it.
ArtreusI'm a wizardAnd that looks fucked upRegistered Userregular
We do that waaayyy too often at my place of business.
But also fuck you if I look you straight in the eyes, say "Steve?" quite clearly, and you nod and take the fucking bag when your name is Adam, and Steve is over there not listening for his order
oh yeah i mean that's theft, but like at a sitdown restaurant, if i served a wrong order and the customer took a bite or even ate it, well i done fucked up on that one.
and in this case, it's not like the guy even wanted both! he just didn't take the other. there's no culpability there.

I am always amazed by this shit. Hand off an iced latte on the bar, call out that it's for Dave. Person asks if its their drink. I ask them if there name is Dave. They say no. Well then no it ain't your fucking drink then is it? Turns out they got a hot drink even.

As a comedy expert I can tell you that the vaping riffs is probably the best current running gag on the Bombcast.

A couple of the guys in my D&D group are vapers and we usually have a fan on because it gives me headaches
I wonder how that market is sustained
I love you Dan

if they bring you the wrong food, they done fucked up. that's it.
in the service industry, that's just something you have to deal with.
Oh my god
