    Morning shinies ;)

    I thought I had enough 21700 mods, until I saw that dotmod have a 100w one coming out.

    Looks nice! Not a bad price either. You should probably have one of each color.

    Hey Shinies, happy Tuesday! Hope everyone is safe and well. I've been on a bit of a juice hunt, lately. Over the years I've stumbled upon many flavors that left lasting impressions for one reason or another. Unfortunately, a lot of these have become unavailable due to business closures, shipping restrictions or stock shortages. I'm not keeping any kind of list (that would be way to organized for me :greengrin:) but instead just making a mental note and remembering them every now and then. One of the flavors I remembered fondly was Frosted Sugar Cookie by Twist e-liquid.

    I stumbled upon this one within my first few years of vaping and couldn't get enough of it. Just about the time i was making it one of my ATF ADVs, it went out of stock absolutely everywhere and i couldn't find it for at least a year. Somewhere along the way, they changed the name because oh no, kids! I think there were a few name changes before they ended up with Frosted Amber. What that has to do with sugar cookies is beyond my comprehension but that's where they ended up.

    There are loads of cookie flavors on the market, sugar or otherwise but what made this one stand out was something about the mid note. Anyone familiar with sugar cookies can tell you that there are a few different textures on offer from crumbly and dry to chewy and barely baked. This flavor is toward the soft end in that if you're paying attention, you can get an almost raw sugar cookie dough note mid-vape and a bit on the exhale. I may be an odd duck but I really dig that flavor. Sugar cookie cookie dough ice cream is a good example. I think Ben and Jerry's did one.

    I also wonder what great things I could be accomplishing in life if I wasn't spending so much time geeking out on flavor profiles.

    Good morning ladies and gentlemen,

    Black Eleaf Pico with dying screen, screen was soldered.

    It got a bit wild, clumsy and fast when the screen was soldered off, but off it came.

    It was just as awkward when it came on, but it came on,
    maybe not my very best soldering, soldering screen is a first for me.
    I soldered with the slide principle.

    I could go back and decorate the soldering a bit, but the one place is on the screen's soldering pad, so it's more appearance than practical importance

    A good pic of Cocoon deck:

    All yesterday I was checking Steampipes every half hour lol, to snatch a coccon when it becomes available for sale. :w00t:

    I am wattage too.
    Quit with tc when I quit using nickel.
    Yeah I've been around a minute lmao
    I almost exclusively use ni80 now. Still have quite a few SS 316 coils and wire around too.

    No shiny news but I do want to say
    Store-bought juice sure is sweet. And this means I am going through coils at an alarming rate.
    I have a huge file cabinet chock full of all that is needed for DIY. Including tons of nicotine. I lost interest in that hobby also. The saying "necessity is the mother of invention' has not rang true when it came to needing juice on my end. NOTHING could convince me to drag out beakers and 500ml bottles in the last few months.
    So I have bought juice online (OMG)
    That is my public service announcement for the week.
    I’ve been using commercial juice mostly for awhile now. I found one place in California that’s still shipping flavored juice to Massachusetts so I’ve been stocking up on it for the day that will eventually come and I won’t be able to get it anymore.

    So I’ve got my DIY ready to step up to the plate full time then.

    You're gonna need it:w00t:
    You were right - we did need it and we didn't get it :?:
    Walsh deserves an Oscar for that. Maroons might’ve won but the game was over in the 7th minute. Next game in far south QLD (otherwise known as MCG). We'll need it even more there.

    Nine days from the time my health cabin order arrived at the airport until it finally departed the China airport today. This is some really bad shipping they’ve got going. Not to mention it took them a week from the time I ordered until they created a label. It’s been 16 days in shipping so far and hasn’t even arrived in the US yet. I’m disappointed to say the least.

    Good evening/morning Shinies! Hope everyone is well <3 I've spent most of the evening binging spaghetti westerns and fogging up the vape lair with some GS Thin Mints in liquid form.

    This juice is literally Girl Scout Cookies Thin Mints in a bottle. Now if I could only find some vapable Samoas... Not a bad way to spend the evening, really. The remastered Dollars Trilogy looks great and how could you go wrong with chocolate mint?

    In other news, I think I've found a new obsession . A few weeks back, my girlfriend and I were chilling, watching something on stream and she was using my tablet. She left her account logged in and when I went to switch back to mine, there was a long list of prairie dog wahoo videos in my recommends.

    For those of you who are unfamiliar, prairie dogs are very social and communicative little critters and their "wahoo" is basically their greeting/salutation to each other or any friendly human within earshot. Here's a good example -



    I'm hooked. Also Poppy running on that little wheel absolutely slays me :greengrin:
