OK, I have to ask. Is the Wild Cherry you have the one MBV sells? I got a shipment yesterday and I love the flavor of it but the throat hit is the strongest I have ever witnessed. I can barely take a puff without coughing for 2 minutes after. Does it mellow after a bit of steeping? Or did I get a mis-mixed batch that I need to contact them about.
I can't speak for Sucker Dad, but for my palate Thug Juice is a menthol and fruit candy flavor. Hawk Sauce is just a bit of mint with more of a true fruit flavor. To me, Thug Juice is less complex and more bold.![]()
How does it compare to thug juice?

I have a bottle of thug juice, but have not tried it yet. That was my free sample.

My thoughts exactly. Everyone here and my wife are what is keeping me sane. You're all the best and I really am thankful to have such a supportive group. I hope everyone in Illinois are safe. I read about it earlier but didn't have time to comment. If anyone was affected please let me know. I can send a little care package when I get home.

just got netflix. is there anyway to use close captions on your TV?
miss you ~k~
Hey, Sam. Er, from memory, and assuming you're running netflix directly through your tv, I believe it's Netflix -- (select whatever movie or TV show you want) -- options -- Audio & Subtitles.
I don't have netflix, but friends do, thus the "from memory," or I'd doublecheck... but I'm pretty sure that's right.
I miss her too, hope she's okay.
thanks Seanchai. i'm running thru a blu ray player thru a hdmi cable. cc doesn't run through hdmi as it is an analog signal.
just thought i'd ask.
Aha. Actually, I know there's a way to get captions to work through hdmi, but I can't remember the specifics. I'll check with my Deaf buddies and get back to you.
that would be cool. i've been looking at the issue for quite a while. i have tinnitus. i like to be able to catch all of the dialogue, and not disturb the neighbors at the same time.
i've got the subtitles on my laptop, just need them for the tv.

What kind of a device are you using to watch netflix? I may be wrong, but I think netflix just uses an overlay for CC, not an actual CC signal, so it should work okay even over HDMI. Perhaps there are additional settings in the device somewhere?
Totally understood... I run the CC wherever I can find it just because it's a small house with loud occupants, so I'll miss half the dialogue without. (Thought about getting a wireless headset, but then I'd have one or more of them tapping me on the shoulder every five minutes, so CC it is.) I've also noticed a disturbing trend in TV these days, wherein the soundtrack often swells to cover the dialogue almost entirely. I don't know what kind of sound engineers are working in TV these days, or who thought it would be "edgy" or "cool" to drown the dialogue with the score, but I find it obnoxious.
Cue the "kids, get off my lawn!"
i'm using a real old blu ray player. i just tried getting the subtitles to work. nope!![]()
I just looked up blu-ray player support on netflix.com, looks like there quite a few models that don't actually support subtitles at all. That's a shame really, as I'm sure it's a widely used feature. Amazon sells Roku's, prices ranging from about $50 to $100, I can recommend these devices as they will supprt subtitles, and also a lot of other things like Hulu and Youtube![]()
does Roku make a streaming device that is also blu ray player? i only have 2 hdmi plugs in my tv. one for blu ray and the other for another dvd player, though i suppose i could move it.
i have 3 dvd players hooked up to my tv, cuz my blu ray won't play PAL. the other cheap one is for dvd-r that won't play on the other 2.
