Morning shinies

I'm germinating tobacco seeds for the son. He's the toughest nut when it comes to stopping smoking. I've been nursing him with vaping stuff for 3 years now, but to no avail...even with the ridiculous price of cigarettes here in NZ he still wastes his money...CRAZY !!!
Figure i'll plant him some tobacco, and get a cutting kit. Cigarette casings are very affordable to. That way he'll at least get less of the toxins into him. We'll see how that goes

The prices here were bad enough 2 years ago when I smoked. Now it's over $32NZ or $20us for a pack of 20 I smoked menthol roll your own tobacco, as it was cheaper. And I used to roll them really loosely, which is where my preference for a RDL airflow probably came from

Good luck with your son. I was just as stubborn about quitting, but thankfully vaping won me over to the dark side

It was strange for me. I loved smoking - rolled my own too - and had no intention of quitting, had never tried even though the cost was dragging me down and I was getting sick of the social pariah thing.

A friend was vaping and got me to try it. I bought a little ego AIO and that was it.
2 days later my last cigarette.

Couldn't resist, @Eskie.

It's a lovely thing... there's just something so perfect about the BB....that would look great with some Stabwood panels on....

Have you had a look at some of the blocks on Alex's FB page yet? Truly impressive some of them. Lately he's been posting some which look like nebula galaxies......amazing.

Same for me. Being a smart money person I was aghast at the money I was wasting and the on top of that being treated like a second class citizen Really it just got to the point where I felt nobody with any sense would keep doing it. Younger generation is harder to convince of that. My daughter was like Fred's son and a little slower to convert.

Pretty smart there Fredman. I hope your son joins us full force and gives up the cigs one day

We started with 2 Evod 1 tank/battery and 2 30ml bottles of juice and parted with just shy of $180 CAD... Didn't know the difference at the time and never bought another thing from the crook vape shop owner who sold them too us.

Made sure I told everyone I knew about him too.

Here people arnt going to Chinatown or to any Chinese restaurants in fear of the virus.

Some places are really struggling and laying people off and Even thinking of closing shop because the employees outnumber the customers.

Mabye I’ll go support them and eat Chinese food with mom when she’s not so sick. She’s been on her death bed with pneumonia really bad. Can’t even stand up or anything.

Last night I was doing the dishes and put a sharp butcher knife pointing up in the drying rack. Later right before bed at 11 I put my bowl in the sink and it jabbed right into my wrist instantly filling the bottom of the sink with blood and it wouldn’t stop bleeding.

So I actually did slash my wrists last night !

No intentional though and I’m still alive.

So unfortunately my bunnies and me are staying

Best wishes to your mom. Hope she gets well soon. As for you, quit playing with knives.

Some of the prices in France back in the day were unbelievable.....and still are to be honest.

It's an expensive country to live in because of the high business taxes

I want to like this post, but then I'm concerned you may get the wrong impression. I'm sure you get the point.

I'm going to take a stab at it though.

Ha with all the Xs I have lately Mabye it will even things out. Doubt it though it’s gonna keep me up all night thinking about the Xs

It’s too much to bear I probably won’t ever become a vaping master!!

What a blow to my self esteem that’ll be

nothing would make me get a fb account...even exquisite shinies. my loss i guess.

evening all.
if anyone in the uk had the dotaio se for even close to a sensible price (and had them in stock) one would have been got.
one wasn't.
EDIT
a third coily tool (in purple) and a BB button (in ultem) were instead. budgetitis.
