I'm a social ear wax picker

A series of ads takes on reasons offered by "social smokers," by comparing it with being a "social ear wax picker," a "social farter," and a "social nibbler."

I'm afraid to put anything in my ears now that I've seen the Wax Vac commercials.

Cant we just stick to pointing out the health dangers of smoking?

Those NYC anti-smokings ads got a lot of flack for grossing people out.

They did? That's kind of pathetic. What is it about anti-smoking and car safety PSAs in America, where we have to be all coy about it lest someone actually be influenced by one.

Y'know - I don't smoke, I don't like inhaling second-hand smoke, and I'm irritated by smokers in public spaces who subject me to their... exhalations, we might say. That said? This kind of let's-make-smoking-uncool initiative strikes me more obnoxious than smoking itself. I would much rather hang out with a bunch of smokers than a bunch of self-righteous anti-smokers.

It's these sort of people who feel the need to crack down on vapers, for reasons that remained largely unexplained in terms that make any sense.

And maybe it's just satire on social smoking, and nothing more complicated than that.

I think it's the passive aggressive mode that makes the attitude so supremely annoying.

They are cracking down on vaping because they say it "looks too much like smoking". What part of this looks like smoking to you:



These are my personal vapes. One is an ego style with an EVOD tank. The other square one is a box mod covered by a handmade sleeve. Neither one of them looks anything like a cigarette. The vaporized material I use is nothing like cigarette smoke. There's nothing combustible or organic. I don't even have nicotine in my juice. I stepped down from nicotine in steps; 18mg of nicotine at the end of June/beginning of July to full time 0mg in October.

You're the kind of person we'd love to have on our side as far as regulation goes. If you want to read articles, both pro and con about ecigarettes, ask me!
