“Mouth to lung”

[zouzounaki]

Does anybody else dislike the phrase “mouth to lung”? It sounds like some sort of medical procedure, or an exotic disease. “I’m going in for a mouth to lung, it’s a simple procedure so I should be home in a couple of days”, “He came down with a terrible case of mouth to lung, it was lucky it wasn’t fatal. Had to go into quarantine for a fortnight...” etc

I wish there was a better phrase.

I quite like "tootlepuff" [emoji16]

I don't much like it either, it is really about how you inhale, not as is used for vaping about the tightness of the draw.

I don't technically vape mouth to lung even on the tightest tanks or on cigarettes I always suck straight down, probably why I never got on with cigars!

For me it’s not about whether or not it’s accurate, it’s just the phrase itself. It gives me the heebiejeebies.

Yeah as an ex-smoker anything lung related triggers me to start worrying.

I see where you're coming from, but can't think of a better way to communicate it.

When I first came on here I hated the term 'vaping', it sounded ridiculously poncey, too much like 'vapid' and I felt 'ooooooh get me, I'm a vaper' every time I said it. Thankfully that eventually wore off!

Indirect inhale?

I hate the word vaping as well. I tend to say puff.

Could we not just make up a word? The world of e puffing loves made up words. Dvarw, kayfun, vandy, voopoo, there are too many to name them all.

Puff style.

Indirect inhale?

Too complicated and literal.

Stealth vape?
