The world opened up to vaping in 2014. Finally, on the back of huge home market growth, vapers took centre stage in news and current affairs. More than that, ‘Vape’ was made word of the year by Oxford Dictionaries. How appropriate is it that in 2016, as vaping faces its greatest challenges in the UK and overseas, the new word of the year is ‘Post-truth’?
Like 2015 before it, and the predictions for 2017, 2016 was another year of 52 weeks. Three hundred and sixty-five days of non-stop searing vape action – but how did it compare to our annual predictions? Good question, let’s find out…
As inevitable as woman with a crown talking on the television after Xmas turkey, Santa is coming for you bearing gifts of a vape variety. Of course, logic says that we should be clearing stuff on the stand to make room. Logic says we can only use so many devices at one moment in time. But when did common sense enter into it?
It has come to our attention that some juice manufacturers are playing fast and loose with their branding. They are busy emulating the design work, logos and slogans of successful cereal, confectionary and bakery companies. Our considered and definitely serious opinion is below.
“What are your plans, Stealthvape? How are you preparing for life in the apocalyptic 2017 TPD landscape?” Questions like this have cropped up with such a lack of frequency that it seemed like just the sort of thing we should address. So, as long as everybody promises not to nick our ideas here’s what is in the pipeline.
There have been so many vape stories in the media over the last few weeks. And, in almost every case, they are focussing on the dangers and risks vaping poses – dangers and risks of the explosive kind. We don’t sell batteries but we know a thing or two about them so (in the hope that this article spreads a bit of safety knowledge) here is some advice.
Probably inspired by some film or other, clowns have been wreaking havoc across the United States. Now they’re scaring people witless in Britain (who’d find watching an episode of Strictly Come Ed Balls frightening in the dark). What is going on and how does it relate to vaping? We decided to investigate.
Everybody in the world knows that the best television show ever created has, well, erm, we aren’t quite sure because we don’t watch it. What we do know is that it appeared to be very popular and people are angrier than a right-leaning socialist wasp in a Labour Party conference.
The 1970s were incredible according to folks who didn’t live through the decade. That said, there were aspects of it that still exert a strong hold over people’s affections. Most importantly, looking at the stats from recent surveys, it’s when a huge load of us began smoking.
Taking advantage of the government’s policy of letting people with absolutely no experience run an educational establishment, last year we opened up the Stealthvape School of Vape. The school was opened with the education of the children of vapers in mind, although we have had to let in some other pupils in order to make up the numbers. Here is a copy of head teacher’s speech for the new academic year.
