(o is right next to p on the keyboard.....that would be my guess.....) But I have it on good authority that vaoing is also quite enjoyable!


As an aside, FlamingoTutu, I keep reading your handle as "FlamingTutu". :laugh:

Somebody else told me that, she actually called me that, when I first got here and I've been bummed ever since that I never thought of it. Like Flaming Tutu way better. :lol:

I do understand these sorts of vaping frustrations all too well, myself.
Like, just today, I had a pair of socks in my hand and decided to put the caps back on some bottles of juice I had steeping. I went to put on my socks and they were NOwhere. I looked everywhere for them. I thought I was losing my mind.

They were on the mantle over the fireplace where I had the juices steeping. (Only place I know the bottles won't get knocked over. Nothing more tragic than Five Pawns all over the floor.)

Okay, that really doesn't have anything to do with vaping, but it has EVERYTHING to do with frustration, so it still counts.

a few days ago i opened up a bag of my little 3 mL dropper bottles i use for test batches in my diy. Mixed up a nice raspberry coffee tobacco then put the cap on and shook it like crazy as per usual. Got done shaking, went to take the cap off to drip a little and the sucker was on there good.

An hour, one box cutter, and a dripperless dripper bottle later i had my juice again... didn't lose that much transferring it to another bottle either... was better than fighting half a gram of plastic for hours... at least imo.

I'm curious too...

Did she get it open?
Is she vaping now?
Did she hit it with her laptop and now can't post here?

:vapor:

My other addiction is Starbucks Frappuccino coffee drinks ... :oops:

If I put the cap back on after opening one, and there is some of the liquid on the cap seal, the cap is virtually welded in place. None of the usual tricks will loosen it, in some cases. I have actually had to throw a few away that were more than half full, a painful and expensive loss ... :(

If we could only make an industrial adhesive that strong ... :rolleyes:

i had that happen twice before. both times i pressed the pop top while i was putting the lid on. i never press that button anymore.

first time i got the cap off by using a bottle opener to pry it off.
the second time i used a blow torch and cut the top of the bottle off. (was frustrated at the time and just wanted the thing open and did not want broken glass everywhere)

i buy some meds for one of my dogs that come in one of those "press down, turn, pull up" type bottles. I have NEVER in a whole year of getting the meds once a month gotten even one top off following the instructions. I have to get a knife, pull up on the cap, and cut the ring that has the "catchy" things on it. The first bottle I got, I was almost in tears and WAS sweating trying to get it off. I almost drove back to the vet to have them open in. I still try to do it via the directions every month before I get out the knife, LOL.:p
