I remember you always waved the pack to a person with a “eh”. I actually still have one of those cigarette host boxes you’ll see in old movies, anybody that wants a smoke can have one, it’s empty, but I like it. I remember when “fancy” places would emboss their logo in ashtray sand, always felt bad about being the first to put a butt in it, usually aim to the side to not mess it up.

“Quitting is easy. I’ve quit thousands of times.” - Mark Twain.
how about you both stop then before everyone gets cooties
I read somewhere that a kid eating a few butts could die. Probably someone that small eating an entire cigarette may be in toxic trouble. So ecig juice is as toxic as, say, any household pesticide or mouse killer, what a surprize.
Don’t worry, once they are taxed and regulated the negative articles will stop.
LOL! I had a sign posted on my Family Farm Business’ office door (1989-2011), of an ashtray with a lit cig burning, notifying anyone who approached that “This is a smoker’s office, and you must be a smoker to come in.”
It got rid of the tobaccophobes/smoker-haters from coming in and complaining about their allergies to smoke. My front counter people would call me to come out and meet with those who wouldn’t enter.
Actually, the office was well-ventilated, air-filtered and AC’d, but it kept the whiners away.
Seriously? You’re comparing Jews to second hand smoke?

I'm not sure what you keep under your kitchen sink.
A tablespoon of ammonia, or bleach, or boric acid, or potassium soap, or even turpentine or methanol is not typically fatal.
Also, they are generally not flavored with vanilla or fruit aromas to encourage ingestion (except sometimes lemon).
I remember how unpleasant it was when flying and regardless of where one sat one had to breath the smoke and the stench of tobacco would be all on ones clothes afterwards.
Neither am I fond of the smokers who flick ashes out the car window when I’m riding behind them. They just strike me as a particularly rude and thoughtless segment of society.
Worse, this is implying smokers have to be babies like Jews have to be Jews.
A little consideration and politeness would have gone a long way.
No I’m calling you a nazi.
If you want to behave like a nazi at least be man enough to wear the swastika with pride.
You and me both. But apparently we're the inconsiderate ones. According to cripplecreek, if you don't wantto breathe second hand smoke or you oppose cigarettes or the behavior of smokers in any way, you might as well be exterminating Jews. (See post #85)
Figure of speech.
2 flavors of nazi apparently: pro smoke and anti smoke.
If both had been polite and attentive to the desires of one another, we’d never have this unseemly brouhaha.

Above is the article the FDA based their notice on. It is nothing but inuendo and weak supposition as to the health effects. They also do not give any methods used but based on my experience with US regulatory agencies they probably used high capacity air filters to concentrate whatever was in the air for analysis. They would need to do that to even detect it since the conc are so low. We are probably dealing with trace amounts in the air.
That does seem to be pushing it, as unlike the normal cigarette, it only emits where it is desired.
I wasn’t aware there was a politeness clause in the constitution.
(smile .. i coulda just suggested that you piss off)
It’s right next to the word, “Abortion.”
