100, not a gross. I was wantin to see if anyone wanted to go in on 200 so we could get the discounted price, but noone did. !00 fit in my mailbox though:) wonder how long itll take me to use em up in trades and for different flavors. Probly shoulda just got 200 myself, but it was only like $32 shipped for 100, and I didnt wanna have to store 200,lol.
I would have if I had enough people to trade with. So far I've seen maybe a handful of 0 nic' rs around here. (omg... good thing I don't have to say that out loud... sounds wrong)

It was a hypothetical gross I was just thinking I might be able to buy a few from you instead of Rob.

If you bought the REO out of stuff you sold, it doesn't count unless there's a balance between the two. Even then, it's still not bad. That's the good thing about this hobby and buying higher end stuff. If you don't like it, most likely, you'll be able to resell it. Unless it's a clone, of course. Apparently they're the devil here.

There is a balance but I did nearly everything possible to knock it down except buying a different atty, If I had don't that I would have come out on top but its cool. Rob really is doing me a solid he even gave me 2 options! I buy clones, no shame here.

Just coming on to say G'Morning Juicers! About to go hit the lake. I'll be back on later in the day! :)

You have an awesome day! Catch something yummy.

I was so desperate that I actually took apart a carto, thinking that I could use IT as filler for a dripper.... Big mistake. I wasn't thinking that the carto has this insulating material that goes around the heating element so it's not really touching the filler. It did not vape well. LoL

Shoulda just used some silica. A carto only has mesh wrapped around a wire I'm pretty sure, I think thats why they taste burnt forever if you dont prime them right. I think the stuff around it is poly somethin or other, could be wrong on this one too.

Never seen it. I don't care for Tom Cruise.

I fell in love with him in Top Gun lol showing my age. I had the poster in my room and everything I had the Top Gun poster on the outside of my closet door. Closet door evolution, Top Gun, The Crow, Garth Brooks, Marilyn Manson then diaper bag lmao!

I love all music. First husband was a drummer 2nd bassist. Hmmmm......
both of my children love music. My boss has hours of me on video singing work karaoke. Love to sing not especially good at it. When my friend liz and I get together though we sound good.

I have used silica. Unless you're talking about wrapping the silica around the filler material?
I don't like silica. I don't get good flavor out of it... it doesn't wick well in my Protanks... Just no good. I prefer cotton but you know of my cotton Chronicles.

Never saw Top Gun, Mission Impossible or any of the other movies he's known for. I did like Minority Report and Far and Away but feel that any actor could have replaced him and the movies would have been just as good.
I'm not super big on any actors/actresses but I do love me some Leonardo DiCaprio. I guess he was "my Tom Cruise". Ever since the boat movie (I don't like seeing the name) he got his big break on, I have loved him. I had books, magazines, posters... His face was everywhere. I still think he's handsome but he hasn't aged the best.
Johnny Depp I fell for after Pirates of the Carr. Love that movie. Saw it 7 times in theater.... I know, it's ridiculous.

My take on the video gods are this...

Indoor smokers were the first vids I watched...dunno why, it was just at the top of the list when I hit search. At first I liked the vids because it let me know what exactly was out there but didn't really teach me anything. The more I watched the more douchy he seemed. I rarely watch anything of his anymore unless it says "giveaway". He is not even a reviewer, but merely a presenter in my book. But hey, to each his own.

Grimm and Phil both make very good videos. They both go in depth and uppy closey lol. Phil gets much more technical and both their videos can get long and drawn out. They don't favor one vendor over another and if they think something sucks they let you know...I respect that.

For me though, I prefer Rip. He's entertaining and informative. You can actually learn something from his videos and for the most part they are short and to the point. He also tells it like it is. He can be over the top with his personality, but that isnt for long and once those first few minutes it's right down to business.

Vapingwithtwisted makes some decent ones too, but I prefer one of the previous 3.

I have a lot of time on my hands at work and have watched probably 90 percent of all their vids. Its sad really lol

I agree with everything you said and I watch all of those people as well. And Like all of them. RIP is a little hyper for me but he's entertaining and like you said, he can get serious when he needs to.
My favorite is PBusardo and probably always will be. He has a special place in my heart. I like his personality. He's witty, likes to talk but genuinely seems to care about people. I like that he gets along with other Vape Tubers too. Especially big people like GrimmGreen. Some people have too big of an ego to get along with their "competition" but instead they seem to get along just fine. I also like that PB responds to comments. I'm sure it takes a lot of time to do that with as many subs as he has.
GG used to but with the whole Google+ thing, appears to have stopped. I like him as well but the "toot" and the burping is annoying.. (He says it's a bodily function... which is true but there are many functions the body does that are not appropriate for filming) Not to mention Amber... I know I'm prob. in the minority but she gets on my nerves. I mean, he can't even film a video without her coming in and interrupting with stupid crap. If that were me, I would have nipped that in the bud. It's one thing if she did the video along with him but instead she just talks outside of camera range for minutes on end. I feel like I'm a third wheel on their date or something. Luckily he time stamps his video so I skip right on past the "Jam Attack"

Love Johnny Depp especially in his Tim Burton roles!! Big Burton fan! Leo Dicaprio never been a fan I guess I get it though lol, I did like The Great Gatsby but I liked the book so....I feel the same way you do about Cruise anyone could have played the part I mean its a book you have a ready made character base and script. I did however like seeing him step out of his usual in Basketball Diaries (very early career) and Django Unchained as a bigot lol it was great...not the bigotry but the role for him

I actually agree I enjoy Twisted and love RipTrippers, it is weird to watch his transformation from earlier vids not sure if he just wasn't comfortable yet or has developed a persona but either way I like it. I guess cuz im kinda like that people think Im a nut too

I like Phil too, he seems like a cool dude. I was surprised when grimm took a jab at rip over the fda thing.last week. And Amber is annoying.

Yeah. GG seems like he could be a little catty. And I also don't like that his juice line is formulated by a company instead of himself. It's my understand that him and Amber are pretty much taste testers and have the juices altered until they like it. I was hoping they'd have more hands on interaction.

I love Leo because he can play anything. I mean, he played a mentally challenged kid. (What's Eating Gilbert Grape) Which is ironic because Johnny Depp was in that movie too but at the time, I was young and didn't know that was Johnny Depp. I thought he was cute before I knew it was him. LoL.
I have yet to see a Leo movie that I didn't like. Inception was the closest to that but it was ok.

Love both these actors! And yes, Leo can transform himself into very challenging roles and totally believable. In What's Eating Gilbert Grape he was crazy good. If you haven't seen him yet in the Basketball Diaries....watch it. One of his first movie rolls. Riveting, sad and he's awesome in it.

I have a theory about rip that involves either stopping or starting meds, lmao. ADHD much? I have my hyper days too, but he went from calm and reserved to a completely different person. I dont think those buggin out eyes are an act, lol. My add is much more of an attention span thing

Not that I'm disputing anything you're saying but are you a good person because you are supposed to be (fear of what will happen if you're not) or because it's the right thing to be?

I'm not "afraid" of hell or sinning because I accept that I have a savior to cover my debts. It just inspires me to strive to be a better person. No matter what "religion" you are, I think we can all read the stories of Jesus of Nazareth, who did in fact exist, and all agree he was a stand up guy. So He inspires me to do good works in the world - or at least my little piece of it. I am currently investigating further on this matter - (aka traveling). I'll definitely keep y'all posted - I think I'm going to start a blog for my missions. And again no matter what faith you are, I am HUGE on paying it forward. Like I said earlier, the ways it has come back around to me are amazing, not even explainable really. Kind of like how you were talking earlier how things have happened and you just know "something" exists.

OMFG these children still aren't placed. I want to go get them when I get off work!

Sorry work rant back to juice....Nothing hitting the Vspot its all too sweet to me tonight for some reason. I know Im a little dehydrated but you would think I wouldn't be able to taste but I can and everything is like vaping sugar!

That's so sad Lav. In the last few months I have been researching adoption/fostering. I am single for 3 yrs and can't see that changing in the forseeable future. So I'd love to adopt, be it a child here or abroad.

Love both these actors! And yes, Leo can transform himself into very challenging roles and totally believable. In What's Eating Gilbert Grape he was crazy good. If you haven't seen him yet in the Basketball Diaries....watch it. One of his first movie rolls. Riveting, sad and he's awesome in it.

I think one of my favorites was Shutter Island. I remember when that came out we debated for months whether he was really crazy or they made him crazy! My sister is a bigger Leo fan than I though. I'm big on Christian Bale. If you see his works other than his Batman movies he is great at transforming himself as well.
