The new smoking while walking on the street is vaping while walking. Just as disgusting and vape clouds linger for longer, so you're more likely to breathe in the second hand smoke. I made disgusted sounds and quickly walked past.

I much prefer walking through a cloud of Grape Ice over tobacco stank. ๐Ÿคข

If someone is walking in front of me vaping I follow more closely behind ๐Ÿฝ

Fun part is that it doesn't even matter what they're vaping!
