    I HATE this - email from Kaiser Permanente received today

    Shouldn't someone be able to sue for slander, libel, or fraud? The case could read: Everyone on Earth v. Kaiser, Seriously Kaiser Get Your Act Together What Are You Doing No Please Stop For All That Is Holy Why Oh God Why.

    Flavor is "NOT" subjective!

    Yes and no. What I have noticed doing DIY juice is that different flavoring brands probably use different chemicals and extracts to make their "flavor" . The result as I see it, is that you get different "aspects" of the same flavor. Consider the flavor "apple" . My father uses a particular...

    Vaping is a new rite of passage for teens

    Vaping is a new rite of passage for teens

    What I don't understand about the whole "save the children!!!!" argument, from anyone, related to anything, is the supposed idea that children are: 1. Special 2. Pure 3. Less Human 4. Idiots. I mean, no lie, prepubescent kids aren't really all too bright. I could tell you a laundry list of...

    How are you preparing for the vapocalypse?

    Literally not prepared at all, too poor for that. ( About 5 people in my family vape. We all chip in and I make the juice/rebuild coils. ) But honestly, a ban or insane taxes will not really work out well. I live in a state that demands taxes for internet sales/purchases, and order from...

    RDA Yet Another Suggestion Thread.

    You know that was pretty much the debate for me. The Freakshow goes the different design route, and has had great reviews. Meanwhile the twisted messes just seems to do basics really well. It's one of the reasons I considered it. Looking at the 13/9 RDA you mentioned, I have to admit it looks...

    RDA Yet Another Suggestion Thread.

    Looking into the pineapple as it looks interesting. I'm worried there would be nearly no flavor with that much airflow. Seems like a cloud competition atty.

    RDA Yet Another Suggestion Thread.

    The long and short of this is that I would like suggestions for my next RDA purchase. I can spend 60$ USD at most, and this purchase will become my primary RDA. A bit of a longer version: About 9 months ago I decided to make the switch from ego batteries and tanks to a mod and rda system...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    Bout a week ago I got my first shipment of Flavor Apprentice flavors in, bunch of 4ml bottles for testing before I decide what I like and order in bulk. I'm enjoying them a lot. Tried my hand at Banana Cream Pie, Candied Apple, Strawberry Custard, and Smores flavors. They turned out pretty...

    Proposed Bill makes it Illegal to sell flavored eliquid or flavors used in eliquid

    I see vape shops offering unflavored nic liquid mixed to proper VG/PG ratios, and then gifting flavoring packets " FOR FOOD USAGE ONLY " . You can't stop them from running promotional sales.

    The ANTZ are winning?

    I can't even. It would surprise you how far some people go down the rabbit hole. Had one person argue with me that vaping wasn't just as bad as cigs, but worse. Apparently there are more toxic chemicals in ecigs and I'm an idiot. Honestly some of the conversations I've had with anti-vaping...

    Oye, Bone to pick with it all

    Responding directly to the OP. I have no idea what exactly sparked this and feel I'm missing a general context, and perhaps because of that I will not give an adequate response or even manage to hit the topic directly. However I will respond to the general theme of the OP which seems to be...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    Bill's Magic Vapor: Using Absinthe to make licorice from scratch is outright genius. I've just been using premade licorice flavors. I feel a bit slow in the head now. Wanna ask: Looking at some of your flavors in your blog posts/in this thread, they often go above 20%, sometimes up to 30%...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    This was something else that interested me. I plan on buying a handful of TFA flavors around the end of January, managed to budget them in. Been thinking of what I need to buy at the same time to round out whatever I do. I guess the reason I find the vanilla/creams/custards to be awkward is...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    I have to ask this, because there is something I don't understand about blending certain flavors. It makes total sense that if you were trying to make something like cheesecake, a cobbler, or other such baked good type flavor, you'd need to blend several flavors. There are a good number of...

    Huh weird, I was under the assumption that tobacco flavors take far longer to steep than others.

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    Holy crap 2% is too much as a stand alone flavor? Thank God I asked considering TFA site recommends 4-8%. Wonder what the steep time is with such a low percentage. Must be relatively long.
