Yeah, there was a very good reason why I gave up web design, and this is it. lol.

Client: "I really want this color with this design and these features"

Me: "No you don't. It won't flow the way you want it to."

Client: "I really do."

Me: "Okay."

At some point later:

Client: "I don't like that color or the design."

Me: "Okay....."

In my side business (web design), I discount heavily for clients who are willing to relinquish some creative control and cut down on revisions. It's totally worth it.

It has been kinda quiet so far today.



I don't do web design but I used to wire houses for a living. I have seen this same phenomenon many times when trying to advise homeowners on where to put switches and outlets. Then after the house is finished they want me to go back an add something I tried to tell them they needed to begin with. It is a lot more difficult, and more expensive, to add a switch after the fact than to put it in while the house is being built.



Meeting about meetings...... Just gotta laugh.

Yeah it is. :)

Good morning everyone!!! (Ok it is actually noon)
I woke up like I have daily for the past 3 weeks sneezing!! I have no idea what has been in bloom but I must have 3-4 sneezing fits daily and allergy meds have not helped much.. Not a huge deal really. I look pretty with puffy eyes :) LOL

Roonie, BIG HUGS to you!!!! I will keep you in my thoughts and hope that you feel better soon.

Khala stay warm!! I can only imagine how cold it is where some of you live when it is very cold in Florida.
The cold weather makes my kitties act all spastic! They go tearing through the house chasing each other and MeepBoop keeps singing the song of his people for no apparent reason ALL day long.

Cob24 thank you very much for your service!

Criticalmass, it is very obvious how much you care for your wife. That is very sweet. What tablet do you have?

Amiaji, How are you today?

Does anyone have a suggestion for a nice morning vape to go with my coffee? As much as I love my fruit flavors they just do not really cut it with coffee in the morning.

It is a Dell Venue, it belongs to my Child but I use it in the evenings since I'm the one that charges it and does all the maintenance on it.

+1 to the sneezing fits. The weather has been so crazy I think the flora thought it was spring.

Morning Amraann, I like Sticky Bun with my coffee in the morning. :)

I would appreciate if this thread would cease and desist with the Sticky Bun talk for the next two weeks ... mine just arrived yesterday and smells terrific .... but I KNOW it needs time sitting in the steeple to age, so I don't want any of you degenerates tempting me.

Macaroni, don't let us tempt you. Insufficiently steeped Sticky Bun is a terrible experience.

Morning all. My thoughts are with you, Roonies. Hang in there.

ACTUALLY, in the steep column of my notes, I have "none" for Sticky Bun. "rich mapley deliciousness, somewhat sweet" in June, a bit deeper and sweeter now.... but just a bit.

Happy Wednesday!

My bottle: 30ml, 12mg nic, 80pg/20vg, no extra shots, born on 6/5/13

Hi Seanchai,

You and I seem to have had wildly divergent experiences with baby Sticky Bun! May I ask what yours tasted like when you got it?

And ditto to Roonies...

Happy Wednesday!

Hi M, my first bottle of Sticky Bun was a 30ml, 50/50, 12mg with two shots (all of which makes a difference as to steep time), and that was fine after just a quick hot water steep - as you say, richer as time passed, but perfectly vapeable from day one, minus the couple hours in the hot water.

I loved it so much that with my next order I upsized to 3 50mls, all 50/50 18mg 2 shots, (increasing steep time by getting bigger bottles with more nic) and tried to vape it after a hot water steep plus about a week - two days with the caps off to evaporate the alcohol, then caps on and daily shaking.

Only tried it once.... bitter orange pith (not orange, just the pith) and a terrible plasticky taste. Took a further 2 weeks to steep to something resembling Sticky Bun, and another week before I dared actually load a tank with it.

So nowadays if I'm running lower than planned on a flavor, I grab a 30ml bottle to go with my 50ml bottles, cause those 50mls can take *significantly* longer to steep than the 30mls, depending on the flavor.
