vampirize

In business, "vampirizing" means a product of a brand could potentially burn sales from another product of the same brand. It's usually a mistake to have two conflicting products in a given line of products.

Apple's iPod Touch will now eventually vampirize iPhones sales, because it's the same product, just without the phone.

That's why Apple launched it later, screwing a lot of customers who would have bought the Touch instead, not really needing another phone.

Vaporizer

A device designed to produce and emit vapor, through the application of heat below the combustion threshold, which can be used in one or more of the following applications: aromatherapy, mineral diffusion, culinary arts, steaming, and vaporization. Often used in place of tobacco products such as tobacco pipes due to a widely shared belief amongst users that vaporizing is less harmful (not as bad) as combustion which creates smoke, as known carcinogens found in smoke have proven detrimental to human health when inhaled.

Vaporizers come in many different styles such as the pen vaporizers reminiscent of electronic cigarettes and other portable styles, as well as plugin units that offer different methods of delivery. The main delivery methods are bags/balloons, whips/hoses, and ambient delivery (directly into the atmosphere).

1. I used a vaporizer to vaporize my loose-leaf tobacco, as I prefer vapor to smoke.
2. I use a vaporizer to create calming fragrances in my home (aromatherapy).
3. I use a vaporizer to infuse my dishes with delightful herbs and spices (culinary arts).

vaporizer

A vaporizer is a device, used often by consumers of cannabis, which enables to user to ingest a doughnut with out having to chew it up. The doughnut is placed in a chamber and is heated to its vaporization point. As the operator sucks on a tube which draws fresh air through the chamber the vaporized doughnut material is drawn through the tube, into the user's mouth, and over their taste buds. This gives the effect of allowing the user to taste the doughnut but they are not required to actually swallow it.

Proponents of the vaporizer claim the taste of vaporized doughnut matches or surpasses the taste of doughnuts eaten with a bong. A recent study demonstrated that the water in a bong filtered out more sugar than either a vaporizer or eating a doughnut using only the hands.

Using a vaporizer to eat those half dozen doughnut, i'm into it.
