The one thing I do not miss about with my partying days back in the 90s....

Yeah I was a party girl and I still like to bring her out of the closet from time to time. But the one thing I remember about clubbing and bar hopping back in the 90s was all those smoky places. The next morning I would wake up and the thing that would disgust me the most was how I smelled like I took a bath in a giant size dirty ashtray. Especially my hair - the smell would just cling to it.

I am the first to admit that I love the public smoking bans but I also know that I still have friends who smoke and enjoy a beer and it kinda sucks for them. I will say this much - I have been in bars and around those people using e-cigs and guess what, I don't have that nasty smoke smell in the morning if I am sitting next to one of them.

Because there is nicotine in e-cigs I agree that there should be some form of regulation including not selling the product to minors. But I really hope that states don't start cracking down on e-cig users at bars and restaurants.

1. I just quit tobacco and started on e-cigs...

and I still get looks when I vape in public places. I tell them that it's water vapor, not smoke, and their response is still negative, like I somehow got around the social stigma of smoking indoors by not smoking indoors and making people think I'm smoking indoors.
Some people can't stand change. It makes them uneasy.

2. those people are assholes then

I know the public smoking ban has hit some business hard when it came to no indoor smoking so I would hope that the e-cigs could help. Maybe I don't want to sit next to an e-cig smoker while I'm dining but why not allow them to be used at the bar area?
