Is Vaping Annoying?
Vaping burst into popular culture fast, big clouds and all, and not everyone was thrilled about it. So we asked a simple question: is vaping itself annoying, or is it certain habits, and certain people, within the vaping community?
We like to think vapers are an easygoing bunch. Many of us switched from cigarettes and just want to enjoy good flavors in peace. But we wanted honest answers, so we went looking for them.

What we asked at the Atlanta Vape Expo
We took our cameras to the Vape Expo in Atlanta, Georgia, and asked vapers what they thought. We got a wide variety of answers, and people had a lot of insightful and interesting things to say.
The point of the video was to figure out what it is about vaping that bugs people, and whether there’s anything we can do as a community to change that.
How not to be the annoying vaper
You don’t need a survey to know that a little courtesy goes a long way. A few easy habits:
- Save big clouds for places where they’re welcome, and never blow vapor at people.
- Ask before you vape in someone’s home or car.
- Follow posted rules and local laws about where you can vape.
- Don’t leave empty bottles, pods or disposables lying around.
- Keep the device talk for people who asked about it.

Where things stand now
Since this video, many states and cities have added vaping to their smoke-free laws, so where you can vape in public depends on where you live. Check your local rules, and when in doubt, step outside and away from other people. Vaping is for adults 21 and over.
