Older Folks and Vaping Back Porch-Part Six

[DavidOck]

Well I'm pretty sure there's going to be a underground vaperoad in PA for sure. If PA gets the structure in place like it has for wine, spirits and beer (which can't be shipped into PA) it may halt the on-line vendors from shipping to PA.

I just may have to rely on my porch friends to be be intermediate shippers for our purchases. That or place all my order with China. I'm pretty sure they won't stop shipping to PA.

If needed, lots of us "foreign" way stations, Mike! Why, I even personally know at least one re-shipper

 

[Kaezziel]

must be something else he's tried then, cuz he's had other flavors too.

Ain't no tellin'... there are so many "craft brewers" out there than you can probably find a Big Red flavored beer or malt beverage. I still really like RC cola, though, when I can find it.

Funny story. When we moved to Missouri (I was 16), the first time I went to a restaurant I asked them what flavors of coke they had. She just looked at me with blank eyes until I asked if they had Coke, Mtn. Dew, Sprite... she says "Oh! Pop!" I had to explain to her that where I grew up, there was coke, tea, and koolaid. Which leads to another story... some people actually make UNSWEETENED TEA! I almost spit that stuff across the room, then they handed me two little sugar packets... LMAO! Like that was gonna do anything!

Well for the 1st time I used the ECF mood button to show/change mine. Yep, I woke up angry this morning. Angry that the world leaders can't come together to effectively combat world terrorism and angry that my state legislators a blind, money grabbing jerks.

Going to the pool w/ Katie and Brian today and forgetting the world.

Hmmm? Maybe I'll change my vape dramatically and stock up on whats available to me in Colorado. Then I'd surely not care whats going on around me.

Uh Oh... Sounds like you're about to cross over to the 'dark side'!

I get where you're coming from, though. I've had that thought/feeling for quite a while now...
Enjoy the pool time with the family, Mike. Spending time with those we love is the best medicine for this stuff, and the most precious gift in the world.

So the wife wanted to move to the country, so I quit my job that I enjoyed, got a job i hate, moved in with my parents, now she wants to go back to dallas, caint win fer losin

Sent from a dark, twisted corner of the back porch, covered in cobwebs and slightly damp.

Next time tell her to go first & try the place out, find a job, check out schools, shopping, etc. Then make a decision.

hahahaha jup pop cracks me up...........that's what balloons do when ya poke em with a pin. Love me some RC, that's my favorite. They had a blind taste test at a grocery store one day, coke, RC, and ewwww pepsi. He said most couldn't tell the difference. I picked em all 3 out correctly. Didn't take long either.

I know! We moved to MO when I was 8. Hated every minute. Except for the fairs in the Ozarks, & the interesting historical & scenery stuff. The people were terrible, kids & adults alike. My accent seemed to trigger something ignorant in them. The school tried to put my little sister in speech therapy because of our accents. Mom pitched a fit & asked them if they could imagine how stupid they sounded to us & how stupid they were for not understanding the difference between in accent & a speech defect.

Hahahaha! Yep, Coke is my usual go-to, RC when I can find it at the store... Pepsi? Not if I were dying of thirst in the middle of the Sahara desert and it was the only liquid available!

Hahaha! I could imagine! Worked out a little differently for me... I had a fairly deep voice by the time I was 16, and that deep southern drawl... no speech therapy for me, but it sure did seem to work on the girls around there. Other than that, I only went to school there for 2 years. I joined the Navy during the summer between my junior and senior years of high school (on the delayed entry program). Two weeks after graduation, I shipped off for boot camp. That's how badly I wanted to get out of there... That was twenty-some-odd years ago, and I ain't been back since!

omgggggg that's ridiculous! Besides, you don't even have an accent, and neither do I!! hehehe

My go to is root beer or DP, they're pretty evenly matched. RC, it's usually available around here. But I like the way you think about pepsi........sweet flat yankee coke! It's awful.

UNSWEETENED TEA!

You wouldn't want tea at my house then - we only use 1/4 cup of sugar for a gallon of strong tea. Just enough to take the bitter edge off. My wife used to make two pitchers, but then she slowly came around to my side after ordering sweetened tea in Ga...

Hahahaha! I got used to sweet tea in Mississippi. That's what I grew up on. About the closest I've ever found is Popeye's sweet tea. If I remember correctly, Mama would put about 2 cups of sugar to a gallon of strong tea... Definitely more than enough to "take the bitter edge off".

 

[Kaezziel]

You actually have to put the sugar in while the tea is still hot... otherwise, it won't all dissolve.

heathens! lol I can't handle it sweet enough to double as pancake syrup anymore, but can't handle it that straight either

Pepsi

The drink of my choice... Especially cherry flavored.

Kinda like how I feel about sweet tea. PSS! Which is exactly what I did the one and only time I tasted the stuff!

Hahahaha! I remember... you're very particular about your teas.

 

[clnire]

I like Coke for cola, Mountain Dew for a Pepsi product, and my iced tea unsweetened but mixed half and half with lemonade!

 

[bigbells]

I can drink iced tea with or without sugar. Around here you won't find a restaurant that doesn't serve iced tea. Most of them are too sweet for me.

Yer Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, etc are "soda" to me. Mountain Dew is my fave.

Here's a porter ale that gets my lowest ranking ever. It's pretty horrible stuff. 5.4% ABV. Two thumbs down. Don't waste your time or money on this one.
