Fake Electronic Cigarette…Really?

Last weekend I was out and about with a friend of mine, Jason. He smokes traditional cigarettes and I have my electronic cigarette. While puffing away at a bar with a beer some guy came up to me and said, “that’s a fake electronic cigarette…” I paused for a moment and thought about what he said. I wasn’t sure what his point was, but my e cig was anything from not real.  In fact, my “fake electronic cigarette” does what it’s supposed to do. It delivers nicotine, and produces smoke like vapor making me feel good and relaxed. So what was all this about?

I honestly still can’t tell you what was up with the comment. But judging from his body language and speech patters I could tell he wasn’t keen on my e cig. Not that it bothers me I was just left a little confused. So I smiled about it. Maybe he was just another loose cannon on the streets but it got me thinking about what these “fake electronic cigarettes” can really do. There’s so much more to them!

I’ve realized I managed to harness some serious social power since I got my e cig. What do I mean by this? Well, they are kind of like a puppy. I attract all kinds of attention with them and can even attribute a new friendship just this last weekend with a couple of bartenders.

I’ve also noticed my good friend Jason has always told me, “you know, you could really get some girls with those things.” And I honestly think he’s right, in fact I know he is because we even spoke to two girls about them recently. Unfortunately my battery was dead and was sitting in my car. But it’s true, like Jason says, they are great conversation starters.

I’m sure in the years to come, as the growing popularity of the electronic cigarette continues to expand its reach, it probably won’t have the same effect as it currently does. It’s already growing at quite an astonishing rate. But for it still makes me feel unique. When everybody and their grandmother start smoking them and the attention dwindles, I’ll think about getting a puppy.
