10 milliliters per day?
Since when is that considered tootie puffing?
:?:
Well, I don't know exactly what the parameters are, but seems like being a MTL vapor I get put in that category. Funny that not long ago I was on the "edge" being a dangerous and less than highly thought about (by some) sub ohm (0.7) vaper but now I'm a behind the curve fuddy duddy even though I haven't changed. vaping evolution has made me a dinosaur in a couple of years. lol

You just have to realize that what others think of your vaping is totally irrelevant -- let them think whatever they please, while you vape happily. Asthma means I will always be a "fuddy duddy." Ask me if I care. :D I'd still use cartotanks, if I didn't vape such a gunkmonster. I LIKE a tight draw. The fact that it doesn't require a massive huff from the bottom of my feet or 50 watts to get a hit, that's wonderful.

I've thought long and hard about this....


Barring Congressional intervention when the ban goes into effect I'm gonna go down to Rite Aid, buy a liter of VG and vape it naked for 3 days.....



Then throw my entire collection on EBAY for 3 times what I paid for it!


If it sells YIPPIE!!!!! If not "oh well."BT and the federal excise taxers can kiss my old shiny white behind.....

My prediction is this gets delayed 1 year so the Chinese Masters can dump their inventories to levels appropriate to "No US sales" and liquid nicotine will kill just enough innocent kids in the press within the next 6 months to invoke sales bans on it too "save the babies."


And the money I save on vaping is gonna buy Armour Piercing ammo for my assault machine gun.


(Retiring to Costa Rica never looked so daymmmm good!)

Already building homes in Ecuador....Vaping is as common as the sun shining on the equator.

Yes, but the only spanish I know is "where's the bathroom?", "what's your name?" and counting to 100. I don't think that would get me very far in a spanish-speaking country. Hence, Belize. :D

Spanish is as easy to learn as the love, respect, and desire to live in the culture that speaks it you feel. If that heartfelt desire isn't there, you won't care enough to learn anything.

Been to Belize, for a visit. I found it tiny, dirty, and overrun with the wrong kind of "expats". No offense to those that have made it their home, but I find the culture and wide open spaces of my beloved Oaxaca Mexico far superior.

Maybe.. but you can't drink the water in Mexico. The only reason I would consider Belize is because it's warmer than Canada. You're right that spanish isn't difficult, even in 2 yrs' study in high school, I picked up a tiny bit, but it's not my native language, so I would never be really comfortable with it.

But I'm curious about which are the "wrong" kind of ex-pats and which are the "right" sort.

Well, we drove through Belize on a road trip...kind of a Oaxaca, Yucatan peninsula, Belize, Guatemala, back to Oaxaca U-turn. I will say that parts of Belize City were nice, particularly the areas around the coast. But while there we also encountered some...how do you say? "Shady Guys". Not saying bad guys or obvious sleezebags or anything, but also not your average retired expat blah blah. Just got a kind of "Bangkok sex tourist" vibe from a few. Also met a lot of nice locals, but the caliber of expats just didn't seem as "genuine" as it is in Oaxaca.

Just MAO though. I'm sure it's a suitable place. Just got somewhat of an artificial "built for expats" vibe that doesn't exist at all in Oaxaca (though not true of certain other Mexican cities I've been to).

BTW, I didn't drink the water in Belize either. Is tap water supposed to be drinkable there?

No idea. The only reason I'm comfortable with "tap water" here is that we got a whole-house filtration system installed as soon as we moved in, with a further reverse-osmosis filtration for drinking water -- the way that infrastructure keeps breaking down in the US, I don't *truly* trust the tapwater here either, but was tired of buying bottled water, it's expensive, and tired of adding to the "plastic flotilla" in the Pacific ocean.

AdriaD, we have big reusable 5 gallon plastic bottles in Mexico, and there is a truck that home delivers! Really don't go to Belize. Oaxaca is a nice option but Cancun or Playa del Carmen is better if you don't want to struggle with the language.

Although in vape terms, I don't know where jambi gets his stuff in Oaxaca but we don't really get all the new tech or liquids down here, we specially suffer with liquid.
