I understand what you all are saying and all, And I knew as I posted it that many were going to disagree, but I just shared my feelings on it. And how I feel won't change.


Funny thing with this statement is that I have never, and very likely will never, vote.
I rated you funny, because it was (really!).

But truthfully, most of us boomers were close enough to KNOW who the Greatest Generation really was. We, nor anyone after them willingly sacrificed so much for their country. I still marvel that there was a day in this country where almost everyone would be ashamed not to go and fight for our country. And I really feel for all of them that are still alive to hear so many calling for socialism today.

I knew there was a conspiracy when it all first hit the media machine.... beware any words that follow "we've got to protecr the children" This is always followed by punishing law abiding adults and taxing the tar out of us cuz they want to discourage adult things in the hands of children.....It's always caused by some competing business liming the oockets of govt and media .. They makethings less safe "for the children" because they are way more likely to aqyire black market adulterated substances like THC cartridges etc.

They want everyone to stop vaping as a precaution.... yep, cuz we arent smoking or filling Pharmas pockets chewing Nicotine gum, using patches etc.... maybe if we arent vaping they can get us back smoking again creating tax revenue...lol say they want to tax cigarettes so much we quit smoking and when we do pull fake news ( incomplete news) to get us back

I'm a millennial stuck in a Gen-X body, living in a world run by Baby Boomers who think they are the greatest generation of all time.
Baby Boomers do not think this. At least those of us who were not radicalized by the leftist movement of the 1960's don't. We admire the GI/Greatest generation, and those who came before.

This statement is quite incorrect.

Again, thanks for the irony.
I know! I mean to say NOT limited to... I fixed my comment.

Tip: You need to stop using the word "irony" where irony does not apply.

Definition of irony


1a: the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning
b: a usually humorous or sardonic literary style or form characterized by irony
c: an ironic expression or utterance
2a(1): incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result
(2): an event or result marked by such incongruity
b: incongruity between a situation developed in a drama and the accompanying words or actions that is understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play
— called also dramatic irony, tragic irony

3: a pretense of ignorance and of willingness to learn from another assumed in order to make the other's false conceptions conspicuous by adroit questioning

You being as naive and uninformed as you are and repeatedly abusing people by name calling and questioning their intelligence, it is a form of irony.

I might be wrong the tobacco companies were paying each state for causing illness upfront in order to not be shut down in a crisis I guess people stop smoking so the states owed the companies money back, in order for each state to continue to collect from tobacco companies people have to smoke and people are not doing that enough to receive the revenue closing down vaping will push people back into smoking and they can get paid.

That was one extremely long sentence. I’m having trouble following it so I’m not sure what you are saying.

My vendor dude said it was actually Big Pharma. Cig companies bought into our game already and are making it either way, says he, it's the patches, sprays. etc. that aren't selling anymore.

My personal suspicion is that it’s more than one thing. That is one of them though. Years and years ago galaxo smith Kline was caught being very active financially in pressing anti ecig legislation, particularly in California. It’s been going on for a long time. It was mentioned iirc here that Jhonson&Jhonson is also an active player.

    Not particularly familiar with the names but sounds abt right (he was clearly oversimplifying in spirit_ my guy_

    I should note, on thread-topic that place is closing shop and selling online only as of next week, asked him, and he said it's on account of the panic wave)

    off-topic again, this making me wonder how conscientious vaper-community is abt corporation/environment etc.? Any such spirit?

    Yes, the vaping "illness" was caused by black market pods that were laced with things not designed to be inhaled.

    Please stop worrying about THAT. If vaping is working for you, you need to start worrying about how to make your own eliqud and coils and that information can be found in various subforums, such as the DIY eliquid forum and the coil building forum. You can take it slow at first but it may be prudent to decide if you are going to stock up for self sufficiency or just bow down to whatever happens which may not be pretty.

    Good luck,

    Anna

    hey anna, i know i'm off-topic here but what is the FDA D-DAY countdown in your signature? is that when the fed is supposed to be banning flavored e-liquids? :eek:
