In the 3rd grade we had a girl get a grape stuck up her nose in the lunch room, that and Billy Faulk zipping up a body part in his zipper after gym class in the 7th grade were two of my most traumatic experiences in school.
There's Something About Mary must have given him a painful flashback.

    Very simple one (just tried it today) Both flavors from Liquid Barn (I know, but they are the only one who has them)
    One shot (DIYorDie... Wayne) Water Malone (watermelon)
    (LB) White chocolate peppermint
    Very yummy (but sweet... dang you Wayne and your obsession with super sweet)
    I did find out what flavors Wayne uses for Water Malone (I think there is some strawberry in there too) so next time I will make it myself WITHOUT extra sweetener. (PUR) Butter mint would also work (sub for WCP)
    I believe I mentioned that WCP was very sweet

    Somewhere between here and there
    My limited experience with pods have taught me a few things. First, don't fill the pod all the way (leave some airspace) Second, if it's an "auto-fire" device, don't leave the pod on when not using it. Third, depending on the pod/coil, some like thinner juice (like 50/50) but others will leak with thin juice (mine likes 60VG/40PG)

    I’ve tried a lot of pod devices and have never had one auto fire.

    Ready to mix a 0 Nic 60/40 VG/PG Base of 15mls so I can add Pins Colada Flavor to it. I know 15ml is a little for all you Veteran Vapers but as far as I know, I might Vape 1 ProTank a day. I just Vape when I want a Cigarette. Long story.
    OK so I split 15mls into 60/40
    9ml VG & 6ml PG TG for Internet & calculators :thumbs:
    Then 2-3% Pins Colada? Madmax is off to the kitchen :banana:
    get ya a good calculator
    I suggest this one: Juice Calculator
    remember that your flavoring has pg in it so it will be adding pg to your mix as well

    not sure about 2%....since you are only using 1 flavor.... usually aim for 10 - 15% flavoring

    I have seen most of the movies... just wondering if you have read or seen Shawshank Redemtion? Great movie (many people don't realize it's Steven King)
    Yes I’ve read the book and have the Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption story in a book of short stories called Different Seasons, and I’ve seen the movie. I’m a super fan of his. He is a brilliant writer. I was in his book club for decades and I was sent his books for much cheaper than you could buy in the store. But for some reason it stopped. And I was never sent those two books that are now expensive. I saw one of them today for $175...once I recover from vape stocking I’m buying it! The other one is $450....can’t do that much for a book. Not right now. My home office is full of all his books on my bookshelves. I’ve read his books my entire life.

    I have this DL tank (drop-in coils) and can only use 3mg in it so been mixing some pre-mades (6mg + 0 mg)
    Going to try something a bit different: Blueberry donut + Apple fritter. Might try this DIY if it works out. Also might try Blueberry donut + Banana nut bread... who knows? The Blueberry donut doesn't have much bakery flavor and the others don't have much fruit flavor so it could balance out.

    Have you ever tried combining Croissant with cookie (or biscuit)... then your choice of fruit (with or without cream)?
    Going to try that soon.
    P.S. still kicking myself for not getting (TFA) Acai sooner... next order it's first on my list.
    Yes I do often

    Okay I skimmed a bit today. Then, I did what I call "cliff noting" a thread which is like reading the last two posts and then referring to an early post to distract y'all from it (always worked on my professors but I did not announce it.)

    So... the scepter. Really, what's cool about it other than it is a functioning pod. I mean, WHO would not want to wave their scepter around right? Not me. So, given that I am pretending all vendors are done for, I got a paper towel and I colored in a star on top and I waved it at the husband and said, "My scepter and I would like...." Then he grabbed it out of my hands, crushed it up, and dropped it on the floor for the dog to chew on.

    Mostly kidding but the name doesn't hurt.

    Today was okay. It is the first day like, I did not have INSANE difficulties. INSANE. I mean the instructions for like, sending your benefit form to HR were written in gibberish but by contrast, the scanner was SUPER easy. I kept wondering WHO set up the scanner like that, while writing the instructions to the dang benefits uh, stite, because it took me about 7 tries over 9 minutes.

    Then my pdoc accidentally called me and he was like, "Is this Joe?" and I was like, "NOPE, it's ANNA from like, West VA now and I filled him in and then I was like, "So..;. any thoguhts on a new doc for me?" He asked me about Morgantown University and he heard from my incredulous tone that they SUCKED and then I said the "Sucked major a:censored:." He was like weakly, "Maybe you could find someone local?" I was like, '"In Clarksburg? Nah, that won't happen. I checked all the local people website and the reviews were SO inconsistent it was clear no one knew anything." I explained I was READY and WILLING to travel to the big city and he said he would ask around. We shall see.

    Work was okay. It's gonna be fine (unless/until I run out of medications then it will be less okay) but like, it's getting less stressful. We may have hired a real estate agent, I liked her she is competent.

    Remembered my mom's birthday today. She was all frantic, she was like, "Are you just calling to talk or wish me happy birthday?" I was like, "KIND of-- BOTH! If pressed the LATTER!" And she was like, "I am 2 minutes into a 15 minute break on meetings and like it's going to be like this for the next 230 days."

    I was like, "Happy birthday mal I will not keep you from your moment on the can. Have fun. Call me when you are not working like you were in indentured servitude (she really does.)

    Man I don't get that. i guess she likes to keep busy.

    So yes, we are slowly but surely moving forward with like, life.

    my cousin stuck one up her nose and had to go to the hospital because they couldn't get it out
    Do you realize that is a Simpsons episode? They found out Homer had a crayon up his nose (pressing on his brain)... that's why he is sort of dumb. They removed it and he became a genius. At the end of the show, Marge decided she liked him better before so he shoved another crayon up his nose. Doh!

    Have you seen the movie There's something about Mary? Warning: not for kids.
