    Seriously, it can't be this easy.

    Yep, it can be for some. And it feels pretty awesome! Congratulations! Once you settle in to vaping, you'll probably get caught up in the search for the ultimate best vape, which I found to be interesting and a nice hobby to keep my mind occupied. There is a lot to learn and read about and...

    Could a B&M be forced to sell to a minor?

    You can't refuse service to someone of a protected class BECAUSE of the status that is protected. So, no, you can't refuse to let a black person shop in your store because they are black, or a handicapped person because they are handicapped. But you can refuse service to anyone, any time, for...

    B&M Clerk Observations (Part 2)

    I'm really lucky in that all the people I have encountered at the four vape shops I frequent where I live seem to share your attitude, Astron. In the months I've been vaping, I've only felt I had a negative experience at one shop…and that wasn't anything other than that their demographic is...

    Could a B&M be forced to sell to a minor?

    Age is only a protected class when it comes to the potential for age discrimination. (As other commenters have pointed out, this usually applies more to older folks than to kids). In North Carolina, you are not permitted to ask the age of a job applicant, but you can require proof that someone...

    Joyetech eGrip - I am loving this thing!

    Welp. Just ordered a woodgrain eGrip body and RBA base kit from Cignot. 62.50 with free shipping, not too bad! I like that they have the option to get the eGrip with RBA as a kit a little cheaper without the drip tip and micro USB, which god knows I have plenty of lying around the house already...

    Grotesque imagery on cigarette packs is pure fabrication

    Ha! That's pretty awesome. I'm sorry, but those "disturbing" images on cigarette packs would not deter me from smoking anyway. They're pretty freaking metal, IMO. When I was in college there was this hippie shop downtown that sold a brand of cigarettes that came in a plain black package with a...

    I was using the B&M worker's dripper on the Hana, she said it was .4 ohms, and the box was set at 25w. I suck at math, so no idea what that translates too…except too much hot vapor for my candy a$%.

    Thrilling: my 1st "bum" attempt since vaping

    That is an awesome feeling. Walking out of the library the other day, I had to walk through a crowd of hobos. (The library is a public place, and it's cold, so lots of homeless guys hang out there during the day to stay warm until the bus comes to take them to the shelter in the evenings) They...

    E-liquid bottle designs are geared toward kids

    :lol: Natural selection?

    E-liquid bottle designs are geared toward kids

    EXACTLY. It wasn't marketing, it wasn't TV, it wasn't the movies…it was that smoking was evil and naughty and forbidden. Drinking was evil and naughty and forbidden. By the time I turned 18 I was hooked on the nicotine so I kept smoking, but when I turned 21 some of the shine wore off alcohol...

    Hell yes i cheated

    Two weeks ago I was hanging out with my best friend who smokes, and I had one of her Camels. I wanted to see what it was like, and I guess test myself a little bit to see if I was really "done" like I thought I was. I lit it, smoked about half of it, and put it out. It tasted like homemade a$%.

    I had planned on getting a 30w Hana or a ZNA…but TBH I might just not be a person who vapes super high wattage. I tried out a Hana at my B&M and I was coughing in a pretty embarrassing way just from 25w, can't imagine going any higher, or using a Sigeli 100w or a God Mod180. I guess if you get...

    Why you shouldn't work in smoke shop!

    It was a lady at my local tobacco shop who first convinced me to give vaping another try. It's a Tobacco Road Outlet, which sells cigarettes, cigars and tobacco as well as a small assortment of their house brand crappy e-cigs and liquid. Of course, I'm pretty sure she thought I might buy a...

    E-liquid bottle designs are geared toward kids

    Like I've said before…"Won't someone pleeeease think of the chiiiiildren!" is the way to use irrational fear to turn people against something so that it can be demonized and controlled. I just bought a 12 pack of Christmas beer today in which every flavor features a different cartoon Christmas...

    You might be absolutely right. And I know that the difference is important to some people, and that the perceived inaccuracy of the iStick is bothersome to some. Having used the iStick as my primary vape for a few weeks now, I have to say that it has knocked my MVP into "riding in the glove box...

    Maybe I just don't know or care enough about electrical theory, electronics, pulse wavelengths and whatever else to see the significance. I know that I'm vaping the same juices at 6.5w on my iStick that I was vaping at 11w on my MVP, getting the same vapor and taste, and am averaging about three...

    all these negative campaign is working...

    I think this is pretty right on. Since I started vaping, I have done so many more places than I would ever have smoked cigarettes. I'm still considerate in that I don't blow huge clouds all over people, and I wouldn't vape say in a large crowd of people or in an inclosed space where it might...

    I agree, Burnie. I was running my MVP 2.0 right at 11w all day every day…I have discovered with the iStick that I can get the same quality vapor and taste on a much lower wattage setting…between 6.5 and 7.5w. I start out lower when the battery is fresh, and just occasionally have to adjust up as...

    If You're Frustrated With Your Nautilus/Aerotank

    It seems slightly smaller than my full sized nautilus with the metal sleeved glass, but holds about the same amount of liquid. It fits perfectly on the top of my iStick IMO, not too top-heavy, just a slight overhang (which my leather case makes unnoticeable.) I didn't find a lot about it online...

    Nautilus mini & VG

    Derp, yes, I meant 80/20. Math is hard when you're half asleep. :D It's actually some kind of funky percentage that I'm pretty sure they do just to be "different", like 76%VG, 24%PG or something…but essentially it's 80/20. I had thought about thinning it with a drop or two of vodka, but with the...
