Hello all. Just curious how many of you Vape in the parks. Have you encountered any issues from other park guests or CMs?
I'm doing the same thing! I'd rather not be in a smoking section since I'm trying to avoid "real" smoke. Some CMs have said its ok to.vape anywhere, others say not to. I've found it easiest to get close to the smoking area, but have occasionally done it discreetly in non-crowded areas. I've noticed if you breathe out through your nose the vapor isn't as apparent. - Gia785.4 #119 4-14-13 5:45PMLike(2) Reply
It's a relatively safe alternative to smoking cigarettes and there is no risk of second hand smoke. It's all water vapor. It's helping me quit smoking (two weeks no cigarettes). And since its not illegal (yet) I was going to Vape in the parks next time I went up. Wondering about anyone else's experiences vaping in the parks. - NEMFLCN29.8 #4377 4-14-13 5:11PMLike(1) Reply
I figured I'd do it off to the side in low traffic areas. So not to blow it in others faces. The vapor poses no threat as the nicotine in the liquid is absorbed into my lungs and not exhaled. Plus it smells like Mt. Dew. So it's not an unpleasant odor for those that can smell it. - NEMFLCN29.8 #4377 4-14-13 6:16PMLike Reply
As a person trying to quit Mountain Dew, this poses an interesting dilemma. - LittleAprilShowers 471.0 #257 4-14-13 6:27PM
I was at a hospital where a lady pulled one out and did it kind of defiantly in front of everyone, I politely asked her what it was, and she started being a bit nicer about it, but she said it was because the "government" was making her quit!!! It actually made me laugh later, but a lot of people don't like being told what to do, even if it is to be courteous. I think if you don't make a big deal about it, no one else will. I don't like the smell of cigarettes, but I really cannot stand when people walk in a crowded area with a burning cigarette, you never know who might bump into it. Sounds like you are just trying to use it politely so thanks!!!:) - secretagentangel 669.0 #154 4-14-13 6:27PM
I would think a bathroom stall would be a great place to "vape". nobody would see you, It would keep you away from the public eye and actual smoke and there are lots of bathrooms everywhere in the park.. all accessable and killin two birds with one stone ya know? I am an ex smoker myself and when I see it, it triggers my "wants"...but I know its harmless to my health... hard question... Glad to see anyone able to give up the traditional smokes! Now if they would just put electric cars in autopia! Can't breath at all over there.. =S - RobinandSteve209.0 #1507 4-15-13 4:02PMLike Reply

Once when I was in line for ST, I saw a guy with the most awesome Disney tattoo. I wish I would have asked if I could take a picture if it. We have searched the internet (it was that awesome) but have never found it. On his tricep he had a pic of the castle, I believe there were fireworks, and some characters. I remember Dumbo and Tinkerbell. Then on his bicep was a picture of Walt similar to the one above, but I believe it was in black and white and very tastefully done. If anyone knows this person, I would love a pic of his tattoo. I have a friend who is interested in getting a similar one. - PrincessKristin774.5 #126 3-24-12 1:27PMLike Reply
He most likely just had stock images and had the artist put them together. Your friend can just print out a bunch of pictures, then go meet with their artist and tell the artist what they are looking for. - Lelundrial 341.0 #427 3-24-12 1:29PM
I have a full sleeve, but its Star Trek. I get stopped and asked if they can take pics, and I never mind it. It's flattering. I'm sure that guy would have been fine with you taking a pic. - Sharkgrrl19 202.9 #1584 3-24-12 1:55PM
