I think it's gnat bites. The gnats were swarming me the other day. We've had gobs of rain lately and it was the first mowing so I disturbed them.
It really depends on what kind of Gnats you have in your area... look that up (most likely, if not just some allergic reaction to something else, that make the most sense)

Not sure what you mean but it is a good "dark berry" flavor (mostly blackberry/blueberry... they mention strawberry but I don't get that) It is strong (I like it but...) if mixed too strong, it has a bitter off note. I mix it with PUR boysenberry preserves (mild flavor) and it works great for me.
Aren’t you strawberry blind? Makes sense you don’t taste it

I will. Stupid PG shortage is the only reason I got VG Nic in the first place.
Personally I don't like using pg only nic, because it is so thin. VG nic is a pain because it is so thick it takes a long time to do anything with, but it is actually harder to spill than pg. I've been getting 50/50 for a while now.
Last 3 liters of strong stuff were in VG only though, all they offered in that strength.

    If the lights are flourescents, keep then very close to the lights (won't hurt them I promise) Otherwise, they will get "lanky". If they are incandescent "grow lights", it's a waste of effort.
    I believe she knows what she’s doing.

    Well, placement of the fire button is the pits. I don’t think it’s #1 for taste either. I think I’ll send it on to a friend if I like the GT tanks.
    That fire button is in a weird spot. And if you get used to it, then it throws you off if you pick up another mod.

    How could you possibly get used to it? I couldn’t get by “sort of used to”.

    Moderna. Hoping no side effects like the first shot.
    That's what I'm getting tomorrow morning. First shot. It's going to be very interesting to see how my body reacts. On the one hand, I kind of want to feel crappy, because that will mean my immune system understands its job, but, on the other, I kind of don't want to feel crappy, because who does?

    Happy to say I’m done buying.
    I broke down and hit Ecigmafia for about $180 with shipping last night. I picked up 2 Swag2s, a backup Zeus X tank, a Vertex MTL tank, and a few super cheap rebuildables they had on deep discount.
    I'M DONE!

    Dd and I got the Pfizer. Tiny bit sore at shot site was the only reaction. 2nd shot April 10th.

    Believe it or not those little (bleep) things really went for blood last year here in SE WI. Usually, we don't have many of them (just millions of mosquitos). I'm trying to attract more bugs/birds/toads/frogs to eat mosquitos.
    Maybe some bats, too.

    Not a new picture, but same bridge... looks like it goes forever.
    View attachment 935545
    I think I'd enjoy crossing that bridge.* I like not seeing land. Have always enjoyed being in the middle of the ocean.

    *I might feel differently if I drove, I suppose.

    I finally got a response from BCF, here is what they said. :)

    I am sorry for my delayed response regarding this issue. We thank you for the honesty, and you can keep the replacement, no charge. We believe it's not fair to you or your fault the post office didn't deliver it initially. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and hope you have a great day.

    Thanks

    That's kind of how I figured it would turn out. Glad it worked out in your benefit, and you did the right thing.

    You'd probably just love the Sunshine Skyway Bridge here in Florida then. I hate that thing with a passion. I'm always white-knuckled if/when I have to drive across it. You can Google a picture of it, but make sure it's the newer one, not the older one which wasn't as high. (They had to build a newer one because several years before...a large ship with a pilot who was under the influence of laced pot, had hit a main support piling or 2. A huge section of the highest, center part of the bridge collapsed. There were lots of fatalities...because a bus, semi-trucks, passenger cars, etc. drove off of it, since they didn't know the top center section had collapsed). It was a horrible event.

    Remembered years ago driving my little VW beetle across it...as the last car that was allowed to go on it headed in my direction, before they closed it to traffic...because a really bad, windy, thunder and lightning storm was beginning to hit. I was literally being blown from 1 lane to another!! It scared the bee-gee-bees out of me. Once I got to where I was headed...I had a Jack & Coke right away.
    I have been on the old one, when I was a child. Road trip with grandparents. My grandfather threatened to throw me to the gators every few miles in Florida, basically the whole time lol.
    I remember hearing about that accident.

    How could you possibly get used to it? I couldn’t get by “sort of used to”.
    Determination. My wife got used to it. She loves the thing. Granted, her experience with different mods and tanks is a little limited, but she's been pretty easy to please with vape gear.
    I recently picked up my first dual battery mod with the fire button right on the face above the screen. I have avoided this style of fire button placement up til now for the same reason you don't like the Prime's button.
    And I still wish the button was on the side, just doesn't feel natural to me, even though it is supposed to be... intuitive, is that the word I'm looking for? :facepalm:
    And of course when I pick up another mod, now I can't find the fire button right away and it is annoying.

    I don’t need any more mods but if I did it wouldn’t have a crappy placed fire button for sure.

    Somewhere between here and there
    Is it a not sub-able flavor? Y’all keep talking about it. I feel like I need to add it to my wish list.

    It’s just one that Fran kept saying she liked so I ordered a 30ml bottle.
