How to Tell You've Been Mixing a Long Time?

[Danoman]

Overstuff your extra large tackle box/ mixing station so much it finally breaks but now you need to buy 2 like it to replace it. Just happened to me.

That's a survival box... (is here anyway) lol

You read a new mixer's question and it seems so simple of an answer that you have no idea if you can answer it without sounding like a real d***head...

I am guilty of this recently. A post by a new-ish member, less than 30 posts anyway, (I well remember how clueless I was in the beginning!) so I begin my song and dance and get called out about it. Sometimes I am still clueless.

And you look for a sale that gives you a discount for buying 5 or more....

Having a heart attack whenever you hear rumors of nicotine liquid being banned or there's a shortage of TA.

Being obsessive and having nightmares that you screwed-up and mixed your base at 10mg. instead of 12mg.

Accurately measuring .001ml with a 30ml syringe.

when you replace your 60ml bottles with 240ml bottles for you favorite recipes so they can age properly.

I know I must be crazy. I have new bottles of flavorings that I have not touched. I buy more an realize I bought extra's of my favorites. (Hoarding syndrome?)

Have too much mixed already to use in a month of Sundays...

When your note pad of recipes is so large that you have a hard time finding that one recipe you really liked a year ago. lol.

I keep telling myself I'm not going to mix anymore until I've used up what I've already made. Then with the next breath I'm back at the mixing table opening up bottles and laying out supplies. So now I'm at the point where I can't give the stuff away fast enough.

Also....when you keep 3, 60 ml bottles of your ADV steeping in a row from oldest to youngest in your cabinet way before you need them. Yum! And when you get close to running out of your flavoring, even though you have 3 big bottles steeping already, you hit panic mode and order more even when you are broke and should probably wait until payday.

Your ADV was the result of an mixing accident.

I found some of my "early" recipes and think to myself "What the heck was I thinking?". This was way back when Hangsen and other super concentrates were not available.

You recognize when your favorite flavor vendor adds new flavors to their list and didnt promote it..you just knew you hadnt seen it before lol
