To ask the question is the beginning of wisdom,
two thumbs up for asking the question, @DeloresRose

I wasn't referring to Delores. Apologies if it came out that way. Without being political I was watching a piece where they were doing interviews on a college campus. The question was "If Trump is impeached who would become president?" You would not believe how many people said Hitlary Clinton. They did show a few that said Mike Pence and it was obviously edited. The PMTA is regulation set by the FDA. It is not law.

Do you mean "Where's Willie?"

"Where's Wang?" is the Chinese version, I believe.

Welp, I can't really justify buying another Armageddon squonk box no matter how cheap they are since I already have so many but... I couldn't help vacuuming up all of the $1 color caps for the Apocalypse rda I could find. It's going to be Match Game 2019 around here next week

 

[classwife]

Well...
It was an interesting event refilling the bottle in the Luna.
Ohmygeez...
A bit of a mess for sure !

I hate you people (and by hate, I mean love) ... I caved too ... even with the ridiculous shipping to Canada ... sure it's not the bargain basement deal, but it's still a deal and a well regarded little mech squonker ... sigh ... that calls for another song re-write:

Shinyitis Blues (to the tune of Church Street Blues by Norman Blake)
(original can heard at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_YB9SC7AV4)

I been hanging out online, got vaping on my brain
shinyitis ain't no good, it's driving me insane
down on shady ECF, they have a shiny thread
visit at your peril, friend, you'll soon be in the red

    get myself a rocking chair
    see if I can lose
    them thin dime, hard times
    shinyitis blues

Found myself a squonker box, and another two times six
tube mods, pods, and epipes too, gotta get my fix
something new to see and buy, each and every day
fold your old billfold up tight, throw it far away

    chorus

Wish I had some shiny mods, coming in the mail
I'd track'em every hour man, to see when they set sail.
But I guess I'm gonna sit right here, just pick and sing a while
Try to make me a little change and give them folks a smile

    chorus

We have an anthem!!!

Vaporider does have some great deals but be careful. Alot of their tube mods don't list the diameters and alot are 22mn diameter.

Refill bottles are the way to go. Much less of a mess.

Yeah, I recommend a 510 refill bottle for all Lunatics --- I have a few of the geekvape Flask v2, but I don't see them available anymore. FT has a Coil Father version that is very similar to the flask, but I haven't tried it:

$6.78 Coil Father Empty Dropper Bottles for E-Liquid - silicone + PC + POM / 30ml at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

It says 'dropper bottle' but looks like it has the triple cap: top cap, nozzle cap, and the 510 cap for squonk refilling through the 510.

You take off the RDA, screw the refill bottle into the 510 connection of the Luna, turn it all upside down, press the Luna bottle and hold (squeezes air out), turn it back upright, let go of the Luna bottle and give a bit of a squeeze to the refill bottle (squeezes juice in) ... repeat the flippy/squishy part once or twice until the Luna is filled, detach the refill bottle and reattach the RDA. Sounds more complicated than it is.

That just sounds like a royal pain in the backside

No ?

Not at all especially compared to taking the bottle out of the mod to refill it. The refill bottles are soooo easy. I have 4 that I use and just bought 5 more from the FVS closeout for $1 each.

First time I've ever heard of a "spare Sunday" ... I love it and won't forget that. The thought of spare days tickles my brain. Hope your spare day is awesome!!!

No, not really --- here is a review of a refill bottle, I've set it to start at the appropriate point to see it in action:

 

[Don29palms]

@classwife here's a quick and easy video that shows the process.

P.S. that bottle is the same one I use.

 

[ShowMeTwice]

I have a pretty decent collection but nothing like the wall of mods other members have. My local vapers have 2-4 mods so to them it must look like I’m hoarding lol.

You a vape hoarder? I would have never thought!!!
Ummm, what about all those screws, bits and bobs in the garage?

Not my "hoard", just a pic I nabbed off google.

 

[Ricky Vapes]

Toby looks cool laying there with those glasses.

How is Stevie and bunny enjoying the house you built? Are they living in it?

Stevie the big momma bunny like it I even painted it red Friday afternoon so it wouldn’t rot in the rain. She came hopping over as I was spraying it up on a few empty pallets like what are you doing with my house!

Haven’t seen Goldie the baby bunny in a little while I assume he took off somewhere else after leaving the nest. Maybe wanted to get away from mom I don’t know haha. He disappeared for a few days then showed up again for a couple days now it’s been well over a week with no baby bunny. I still got Stevie though!

I wouldn’t blame him, my mom can drive me crazy too. My mother has expensive taste and depends on me to buy pretty well everything because she hasn’t worked in many many years . If she doesn’t have sparkling water she will literally dehydrate herself and not drink anything then guilt trip me saying how thirsty she is until I buy her a case of sparkling water. She must drink 8-10 cans a day too lol. Then she goes on these kicks where she needs something and will act hard done by if she doesn’t have it. The pst month it’s been banana cream pie which I don’t like but she seems to always ask for one if I’m going out to the gym or a meeting whatever.

I burn through my money super fast having someone depend on me but I can’t say no 95 percent of the time because she’s done some pretty crazy stuff in the past when I have said no even including trying to kill herself when I wouldn’t buy her a brand new car. Mind you she was off her meds at that time so she’s not that bad usually. Still that stuff Sticks with me.

But she’s my mother she did a lot for us kids and I feel like I can’t leave her . I felt awful coming back home after I was homeless and getting locked up all the time doing crazy stuff in my addiction. She had to sell so much stuff to make the rent and pay the bills. My older sister was basically texting me telling me I’m a horrible person and that I need to smarten up and start giving mom money again .I always looked after her even when an addict until things got really bad and she couldn’t watch me kill myself with drugs anymore.

I moved away again to live with a woman named Jen I fell in love with she was my first girlfriend in 26 years. Mom said she would be fine and to go ahead and live with the woman I loved. I was scared to leave her alone we had always lived together and I always looked out for her. But before me and Jen could make it to our one year anniversary she died so I moved back with mom not being able to live in our apartment alone.

It could always be worse and although mom drives me nuts I’ll always be there for her. I’m not a rabbit although their lifestyle really does appeal to me! Eat sleep and play. Stevie is pretty big now so I doubt any bird can take off with her now haha But she’s a pretty cautious rabbit.
