Dummy e-cigarette

Stealth smoking

This new product from BorgCo looks just like an e-cigarette, but in fact it's just a tube to hold a real cigarette, and contain the ash.

It has a built-in electric igniter.

Insert cigarette, close tube. Press button to light. Inhale smoke.

Useful in places that ban smoking but permit e-cigarettes.

       This is probably your best idea ever, including the future. If I had to guess, I would say that you are a reformed ex-smoker (by which I mean an ex-smoker who has reformed by starting smoking again).

       Evidence that smoking bans have nothing to do with smoke or the risk of fire is presented with the wide concurrent bans on e-cigarettes. It's not about stopping people from smoking where it presents a risk to someone else, it's about controlling others.

       Unreformed non-smoker.

       This annoys all the right people, so have an unreformed bun. Now, can you create some form of hollowed out spinach and fill it with bacon? I have never smoked, but I get occasional hassle from the proselytizing health cult devotees with their pro-leaf agenda. Also, just to really muddy the waters, a fake e cigarette for non smokers, just an led on a stick.

       We are all descended from reformed peas.

       That Gregor Mendel clearly has a lot to answer for.

       An e-cigarette shaped to look like a dummy would be an excellent way to get babies and toddlers into the habit early.

       Something like a hookah - conventional dummy, thin tube, vapourizer nearby - on a lanyard ?   

       You should post that.

       I'm trying to visualize reformed peas, but keep seeing whirrled.   

       Can the stench become stealth as well?

       Regrettably, no.

       Are you sure about that ? The future's a big place; although for you, and all the other inhabitants of your planet, perhaps not quite as big as you expect, or would want ....
