    Things sure have changed 'round here...

    Ha! This is how my husband broke his clavicle in the 8th grade. Now that he's older than the dirt on Jesus' shoes it hurts him ALL the time...more often in wet weather...I have asked him, "Why the hell did you jump off a roof???" and he just stares at me like he never considered such a weird...

    Things sure have changed 'round here...

    God yes, I have heard these pieces of horrible news, especially as a parent we and our kids feel the repercussions greatly...everyone is afraid of such a thing happening and it's becoming more of an "it can happen anywhere" kind of thought...scary stuff. Yes, my sister was freaking HORRIBLE to...

    Things sure have changed 'round here...

    I do remember the "just let them fight it out" mentality. My sister had things just right, she was twice my size to begin with and she'd make a fist, put her hand over the other fist to double the impact and slam it down into the middle of my back so I would have the wind knocked out of me. That...

    Things sure have changed 'round here...

    For example, I remember for a while it was all the rage for boys to jump off the roof. Yes, that's right...jump off the roof. Pick a house where the mom wasn't home for a couple of hours in a loose sham of covering up one's activities and then dare one another to jump off a roof into a swimming...

    Things sure have changed 'round here...

    Eh...personally I miss the old days in a few sentimental ways, but honestly, if I were to raise my kids today the way we were raised in the 70s I'd probably turn MYSELF in to Child Protective Services, LOL. We seriously missed death by a narrow margin approximately once a week. More often for...

    The switch is happening faster than I thought it would.

    This is WONDERFUL news! Congratulations and I am so glad you got the help you needed! I was on the very edge of giving up vaping altogether when I finally joined this forum and asked questions...this forum has saved the day for many a new and/or struggling vaper, I'd wager.

    What to do if you lose electrical power?

    "What do you do if you lose electrical power?" Answer: Run around in the dark hitting my shins on things and swearing while yelling at the kids "There IS no boogeyman!" and enduring the husband's mutters of "This is why I TOLD you to keep the flashlights in one drawer and always in the same...

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    Well...realistically, not so very many years, really, and a very, very small percentage of the total population. I have to think that's at least part of the reason why others haven't seen it so much...it just doesn't exist very much. On here it does...but this is a vaping forum. I get what...

    the name "electronic cigarette"

    I am so glad every time I hear of a good response from the general public on vaping.

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    I challenge YOU to live on NOT EVEN minimum wage, that's the whole point. ;) Kids in school can still get pencils if they can't afford pencils. They can get lunch if they can't get lunch. Where do your kids currently go to school? Just curious. Because I'd be interested to hear about a USD that...

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    Crap. And here I thought I had things all wrapped up. The formula seems pretty simple, it's the same one my children use for voting for class president. "Sure, she's a mean-spirited rich girl bully but she promised us all free cookies." Done.

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    These complaints are very, very indicative of a very, very spoiled society. Try doing any of this 100-ish years ago and then you'd see what "unfair wages" and "unfree education" really were.

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    No, but I can tell you which political party to switch to in order for me to keep on top of my jones. ;) Does that help?

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    And insurance issues...don't even get me started. Yes, there IS quite literal, financial, legal and health care discrimination either already extant or in the works against the fat...which not very many people have so much as said "boo" to thus far...until the 60-some percent of us who are...

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    So this is the list for one bill, is what you're saying? We should all change our political affiliation based on one bill regarding a choice we make *for ourselves* to do or not to do, completely ignoring other issues? ;) (I know that's not what *you're* saying personally, DC. But it's the...

    the name "electronic cigarette"

    This is a tough question because honestly, if it had not looked and "acted" (inhale, then exhale vapor) like a cigarette, I never would have tried it. And I'm aware there are many other people who got started on vaping v. smoking for the same reason, I've seen it stated over and over again on...

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    Correct. We need to spread the word...and spread the studies. Not just sit there and stamp our feet like eight-year-olds and go "I can do this and that's that."
