Question for people who create their own mixes, how do you know how much of each flavor to add? Are you just guessing from doing sft or from sources that recommend a %?
Mostly from reviews (like reddit) sometimes from DIYorDie Noted (videos) After awhile, you get a general idea of each brand (like FA and FLV are really strong, Purilum is really weak, ect) but that's not a hard set rule... there are exceptions. Lately been looking all the flavors a lot.

I'm beginning to realize that I don't like vanilla custard, has an off taste that I can't quite put my finger on.
I burned out on most of them (especially CAP) Now I like (WF) Flapper pie... nice mild custard with meringue. I also want to try (VT) Pudding base. Maybe try Bavarian cream (still very rich but not as "cloying" as custard?)

That is why I bought a second coffee thermos, dude. Backups. This one is tall and skinny but NOT tippy, not sure how they did that but the best thing about it is the spout A button pops it up and you can close it and take it places. Even more awesome will be the fact that EVEN with the spout open if I spill it not much happens other than a drop dribbles out. It requires suction. I am GOO at suction (get your minds OUT of the gutter) but like yes, there is also NO way for a mod to fall IN it, which YAY. So yeah.

So I went and got like uh, my zpack, came back and reviewed my notes and did some more research and like, IDK I can't even do anymore, man.

I checked time zones and had the horrifying realization that they went in the OPPOSITE direction to my thoughts (this may be because Canada STD has been calling me and bi:censored:ig at early times of day I thought my interview would be in the 4ish time for me .It's not. It's 10:30 and dude, like, that's FINE but the on in PA is at 7 am MY TIME. That means waking up to prepare, bathe drink a ton of coffee oh, maybe take some extra Adderall (mostly kidding there I think) AND get presentable because it is skype. Jesus.

In any case, well, whatever, I can't research anymore. I lack enthusiasm there is not much there and well, I will be asking some questions and they can ask me some and then we will see. Bah. Done.

Anyway I got home and my fever was 101. I was like "F it" (I already took my Zpack and I don't regret it an I am still tens uniting me for a bit but I am gonna do yoga anyway. I think maybe NO type of fever reducer makes ANY kind of difference for me, MAYBE more Zpack will help but as I SAID I cannot even string two like, good days together. It is freaking ANNOYING man. In any case, I am just like "meh." I shall rotate them and see if I notice any difference but I bet NOT. I probably am getting bad REBOUND fevers because anything is more effective than Tylenol. I HATE Tylenol.

So fortunately I may NOT have to castrate my BIL for surreptitiously having a party in his pants, which has happened before but I politely ignored, because my 6 year old was present so I did not draw attention to it at the time. I told the husband they could not visit again because like, the kid. He was like "Wah?" I was like oh honey he will get his ,which he did and like got put on probation for acts involving an internet café. I had a really uncomfortable conversation with the SIL about it because I was checking on his legal status for an application of mine to the prison. She was like, "OH GOSH oh no all that's done with it's wonderful!" I thought, but did not say, "Uh huh, no it's NOT."

But,. I bet he still does it. And that gets you castrated or at least a swift kick to the groin area, hard enough to require stitches. Sometimes a persons needs an object lesson .Go home go to bed with your wife and think about me, Kelly Clarkson whomever. I have seen your wife, and I totally TOTALLY would, and yes you have mild mental ......ation but it is ALSO POOR CHILDREARING to the max. I would have nipped that in the bud "so to speak" SO FAST.

It is just POOR form for you to do it at me and requires remediation. On the flip side, that is probably like, something that goes on your license and I do not need that.

YOGA! SO soon. It cheers me up every time.

I hate the IHS they are the slowest of all the departments but I really want some status updates I MEAN SHEESH.

Come on GALLUP NM.

Now I’m getting downright silly. I made a strawberries and cream recipe with every strawberry and every cream I have in my stash. I may mix it later.
This might sound crazy (but it works) add a very small amount of hazelnut (not enough to know it's there but it seems to make the strawberries "richer")

What it needs is a little more body.
That's why I like (PUR) Boysenberry preserves... it has a "jammy" body. I forget the brand, but there is this stuff called "jam it" (I think) that can be added to fruit flavors.
I just found it... (VT) makes it (vape Train)

I haven’t tried that one. A few people I’ve talked to recommended FW blueberry. Also the osdiy blueberry is supposed to be good. I have it but haven’t tried it yet.

Thanks, Hittman. I've got the FW blueberry in the cart at BCF. I took the VT blueberry out. I'm glad to know the OSDIY blueberry is supposed to be good. I've got some of it, but I haven't done a lot of mixing with blueberry.

I ended up taking a high power toro blower/vacuum and put it in the dryer vent and sealed it with press and seal wrap. Turned it on high and blew out the pipe. It looked like it was snowing. I couldn’t believe how much came out after I had already snaked it with the fish tape.
That's exactly what I was going to recommend ;)

I need a new bottle of TFA Bavarian Cream, but BCF only has the DX version. Is it any good or should I order the regular TFA Bavarian Cream from another vendor?
Don't have an answer but you might also try (JF) Jungle Flavors Bavarian cream.

    Both those flavors are a no no for someone that doesn’t like sweet vapes.

    I have jam it. I’ve only used it a couple times but didn’t consider it sweet. It’s more of a texture thing to me.

    Switched to my Very Berry Cheesecake today. I’ll have to remix a couple cheesecakes soon.

    I don’t remember, is that different from your mixed berry cheesecake that I love and am still using.

    I don’t think it can be done. FLV Raisin Rum has no actual boozy taste. It’s a unique flavor and any sub won’t taste anywhere near the same. Sorry:(
    Pity. I'll fool around with your recipe until I'm ready for the next flavors order.
