I assume you're referring to the Remy youtube video that DP posted. While I agree in general with what you said, I take that video to do nothing more than tickle my funny bone. I just adore parody humor.
It could be parody. All I saw was the shot used as cover art. The early SNL cold opens we’re fairly realistic, but then things relaxed some so it’s fairly easy to tell.
Now that I think about it, I believe he was referring to the Brent Stafford video. Ironic, since Brent's been a consistently strong vape advocate since before "vape" was even a word. Literally.
Folks like Brent are definitely dwindling, and I give him credit for continuing to hang in there, trying to get folks to see past the mass-media bullspit. The machine is obviously winning, but Mr. Stafford hasn't wavered yet.
I have, but he hasn't. I admire his resolve. Mine left years ago, sadly and unfortunately. Now I just vape, and try to laugh (while it's still semi-legal).
