Thanks fer da reminder. Da last time this topic came up, I went and did a lil' Kurt/alcohol diggin'. What I found was that alcohol based flavs (ABF) bothered him and a few others. He highly recommends not to continue use if there is any sensitivity.

I did not find any statement that said ABFs are dangerous beyond the aforementioned caution. I've been vaping ABFs for near four years with no noticeable negative effects.

Do stay away from flavs that contain oils!!!
They have to use alcohol to dissolve some flavors that aren't water soluble, if I remember correctly. Didn't have a problem with it. Sweeteners on the other hand...

Oils, yep, :nah:.
Somebody has been reading in other threads... LOL

Long story short. We are having Thanksgiving early this year. We lost a freezer the other day and it was either a turkey or my nic that had to go after transferring our frozen food. The turkey lost... :cool:
Yes I was and got a good laugh out of it. You forgot to mention here that your wife moved all the food out of the dead freezer but left your nic in there because there wasn't room for it in the working one. :lol: How was the turkey?
I've been getting mine from Wizard Labs. I get a lot of my flavors through them, as well. Kind of a one-stop-shop for me. ;)

Tell me about it. I'm 5'4" and wear a 28/28 pant size... the majority of my clothes end up coming out of the kid's section of the store. :facepalm:
No problem. They are sometimes out of stock on certain flavors, and often out of stock on syringes and beakers and such, but I've never seen them be out of nic... I've been using it for a coupla years now and have had no issues with it. Some people say that their nic is a bit "peppery", but I don't notice it... especially at 5mg in my juices. I always buy the 100mg/ml nic so that I don't have to use very much of it in my mixes. ;)
Always have bought from WL. Not sure where the pepper thing comes from, its rep. is that it has no peppery taste.

Back in 2013-14 they were always running out of nic. It was the go-to place to get it. Everybody would watch their site day and night waiting for it to become available. 100mg would sell out in a matter of an hour or two. Oh, the good old days.

Almost all my cloths are men's or boy's. Women's pants make me look like I'm wearing jodhpurs, atren't very functional, made to last for three washings, are "cheap," ugly (talking about the ones I can afford) and the sizing is all over the universe. Don't get me started on bras, their pricing (ProVari is less expensive) and all the padding they put in them? Hello? I don't wanna look like Dolly Parton.
And @Von Vape has taken an extended absence???
I hope he is writing some most excellent rants. :)
Ummm, maybe one day I'll relate my phire response one night many years ago. Pher now, I'll just say I had no jammies on da bed...

But nonetheless, I'll consider ya a well prepared 'commando' phire phighter!

BTW, I finally 'used up' all dem cheap nasty Nautilus/Kabuki heads! Will guarantee dat dey don't last long and will definitely let ya know when they're dun, PSS...
'Commando' phire phighter?! :w00t: Radiant heat, embers, flashover... Really hope it didn't involve rescuing a damsel in distress. :lol:
Anyone notice ebay has modz up da ying yang?
Vape Mod: Gadgets & Other Electronics | eBay
So does Amazon, go figure.
I don't think it is Janet's body that would hurt if they came up missing...:D:lol:
Now that is a sure bet. :)

Yep, did not mention it here - I got in trouble for posting that - now you are going to be in trouble with me. But, just to let you know the turkey sandwich I had tonight was delicious. I love left over turkey... :)

    So how old is an "older folk"? And from reading some of the posts here this thread is not about a specific topic?
    Howdy! Older means, ummm, well apparently it means older now than you were yesterday.:) I'm 45 and I know another regular of the thread is 40, though the majority here are older than I am.

    As far as topics, in general anything vaping related is fine. Occasionally it gets off topic, but we try to keep it vaping related here, and keep off topic posts on the Back Porch.

    So feel free to have a seat, have a vape, and enjoy the company.

    Welcome Bea! Lots of great, caring people on the porches. Pull up a chair, sit on the floor, grab a vape and beverage of choice and join the fun! We don't check ID, amd often stray from the topic, but we have fun! The Back Porch (already linked above) is for anything goes.

    For me, older folk are people who smoked 20 years or more, have had health consequences with smoking, tried to quit many times with many different methods, and found success with vaping. We appreciate it more.

    Depends on whether you believe the Bible or the scientists.

    I prefer the definition described in "Fundamentals of Chinese philosophy 1986".

    "We can also take this proposition as implying that the meaning of "today" and "yesterday" is relative to contexts. Yesterday was the today of yesterday, today is the tomorrow of yesterday, and tomorrow will be the today of tomorrow."

    :D

    IIRC, wasn't alcohol in the mix one of the reasons to steep some pre-made juices with the top off? So it could dissipate?

    And big yes, NO oil!
