    Bread!

    Be sure to keep us posted. I quite agree with you about the yumminess of baked goods . . . bread, butter, biscuits . . . mmmmm!

    Bread!

    Y'know, that sounds really good, Andria. I prefer lower percentages myself, but the ingredients combo sounds very interesting. What does the Acetyl-whatsis do? Isn't that a bready sort of thing too?

    I wait 24 hours to get a general impression, and then put the mixture away for 4 or 5 days before tasting seriously. I think I may be a bit conservative, though.

    Bread!

    Oh, I'm sorry. It's a Flavour Art flavor, not Capella's - and it's from ecigExpress: Bread Crust by FlavourArt - ecigExpress The smell is . . . a bit odd. Like unbaked beer bread dough, if you've ever made that. That's a good idea. I'm also thinking of trying to achieve cinnamon...

    Bread!

    Hum. I wonder how the order of our posts got reversed? We must be in a time warp of some kind. :) At what sort of percentage would you add Bread Crust to a recipe like that, Symmetry?

    I agree that it sounds like over-flavoring. I'd take Danny's advice on all counts. The general consensus seems to be that drippers deliver the most flavor, and I think that's absolutely true. On the other hand, I think flavor is maximized in moderate rather than super-subohm builds...

    Bread!

    I love bready, cakey, not-too-sugary things, so I recently ordered a bottle of Capella's Bread Crust flavor. Now I'm sitting here looking at it, without a single idea of what to make. Suggestions, Comrades?

    What exactly is involved with rebuildables

    Take it from somebody who never even took Shop in high school: it's a LOT easier than it looks. Welcome to forum, and best of luck! :)

    Who Is Against E-Cigs?

    I just got a very reasonable, even-handed response from Sen. Angus King of Maine. He concludes: Not bad, right? :)

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    Yikes. We do seem to be missing each other's points. Sorry about that. :facepalm: But yes, I think you're right: a lot of people surely do find pornified images off-putting, regardless of whether they feature babes or beef. (It's hard to picture either kind of magazine in a periodontist's...

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    But, but, but . . . I rest my case. :)

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    Exactly my point. My suspicion is that many of the marketers themselves are straight, white, culturally unsophisticated, young(ish) males, and that this is why the industry looks the way it does. I think a clever person could make heaps of money catering to broader, less provincial...

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    You think straight women and gay men, taken together, are "a small group of people"? Really? I think they're quite a big group of people. The real question, though, is whether the actual vaping population is really as dominated by straight, white, culturally unsophisticated, young(ish)...

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    Well, photos in the style of VPR's send a very clear message - namely, that vaping is a hobby for straight men. This, I think, is what's bugging women, even beyond the general tackiness of the magazine's aesthetic. Of course, if barely clad beef appeared on the cover of a vaping magazine...

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    Again, I don't think "people" are being un-light. I think what's really bugging you fellas is the call for more beefcake. ;)

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    People are replying to a direct question posed by the OP. Except for the slightly hysterical political posts already removed, I don't really see anybody "overreacting." ?

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    Okay. But this particular magazine is obviously geared towards men and boys only, which naturally tends to alienate women and girls. If you really want women "connected with the industry" in some role other than pornified props, and you think this is a viable way to do it, then you'll have...

    Did VPR magazine cross a line or does sex sell?

    I can't quite think of how to put this tactfully, so . . . I think they're targeting the kind of guy whose sole "knowledge" of women comes from porn. Either that, or the ads' designers are themselves that unfortunate kind of guy? Either way, I'd really like to know what the demographic...
