Potentially deadly pedicure incident

[snarkypaws]

This past weekend I decided to give myself a pedicure, a fact which I normally wouldn't feel compelled to share with y'all. On this occasion, however, I noticed that every time I bent over I heard an ominous hissing noise. Since I'm mortally ophidiophobic (fear of snakes), this noise immediately had my full attention. It took me apprx 4 very long terror-filled seconds to figure out that the hissing was the result of bending over with my Tornado in my front pants pocket, thereby activating the button. It's entirely possible that vaping is as hazardous to my health as smoking was. Don't let this happen to you.

Glad you caught it quickly. I have done the same thing a number of times and it amazes me that I can actually hear that tiny sizzling noise at all.

I have burnt myself twice, once with a bottle of juice that leaked in my pocket and once when a 510 activated and burn my leg, no more putting my ecig or juice in my front pocket.

I cut a ring of silicone tubing.

Slid it over the EGO right up to the button......and now I dont kill cartomizers anymore ( or burn my leg).

Fortunately I was paralyzed with fear, otherwise I would've executed a rather painful swan dive into an empty jacuzzi tub.

Potentially deadly?

Was the Tornado being used as a detonator to an explosive device hidden in the building? Did the sizzling sound attract poisonous snakes?

Sounds more like "potentially ouchy" to me.

Hi SNARKY! Good to hear from you again. 'fraid of snakes huh? That's what you get for livin' in the rain forests of Georgia. (too steamy down there for me) My sister used to live in the tiny town of Harlem GA for a bit. It's between Atlanta and Augusta. I made the mistake of visiting her in July once. Phew! It was like a sauna!

No, the hissing sound itself indicated the possible presence of a snake, and as an ophidiophobe I would not hesitate to drop dead in my tracks should such an encounter ever occur.


Mist, I'm packing my bags for Canada as we speak...

Hey, BTW. Stop by Michigan on yer way to the great white north and we'll have a vape-n-a beer!

 

[snarkypaws]

Not afraid of anything else except for snakes.....well, maybe domesticity.

Sometimes humans give me the willies.

Excellent point, which is why I'm working on becoming a full-blown recluse. I may have to make an exception for that vaping/beer thing, though you'll probably have to take me to the emergency room afterwards (can't drink - chronic daily migraines).
