Is it just me, or did this sound eerily like the taking points of BT against vaping? It's like Aspen took from BTs playbook to use against DIY. I understand that it's hard, especially with the stupid government involved, to run a vaping business. But this type of BS is exactly what we don't need.

5 Reasons Why Making Your Own DIY E-juice Might Not Be a Good Idea

Where's the rest of that series ?

What happened to the other remarkable episodes :

5 Reasons why making your own burgers might not by a good idea
by A-finite-number-sold-franchise-holder

5 Reasons why driving your own car might not be a good idea
by T. Axidriver

5 Reasons why believing me might not be a good idea
by P.O. 'Read my lips' Litician

And so on....

Seriously, vapers drawing enough flak already as it is.
Last thing needed is 'friendly fire' ( or rather cheap shots ).
If it was meant to generate more revenue, I'd say you just had your UA moment.
Cuz judging from the comments it backfired. Badly.

We're vapers, not fools.

Maybe BT already owns them.

Lord, I wish I had stumbled upon this earlier! I've made my own for close to 4 years but now I see the potential danger I've been putting myself in. So foolish of me. Tomorrow, I'm dumping my cache and driving down to some local B&M to see what I can pick up. Yes, I've seen the error of my ways.

This is ridiculous.. and your right about the premise. I do a lot of baking that most people don't take the time to do themselves, but I do, and I enjoy the benefits of my labor.. nothing like a loaf of homemade bread for a sandwich, or a bun for your hamburger, or homemade pita bread warm from the oven.

When I first learned to make bread, I had a few odd loaves (ate them anyway though.. lol) this is like saying no one has the capacity to learn how to do something correctly and God forbid measuring is over the pay grade of anyone who doesn't make something professionally. (We must be ignorant fools, in their opinion)

I'm just now getting into diy myself and also about to begin making my own net flavorings for my DH.. but I'm certainly not too stupid to learn. I might waste some.. but it's no different than wasting a little yeast and flour on a poor loaf..

Seriously, all these people want nothing more than us as slaves.. self sufficiency is no longer encouraged and supported by these corporatists and big government people. I get so sick of these people treating me as if I'm an ignorant fool that needs to be coddled. I'm not ......ed.

Totally agree. Plus now you have made me hungry....mmm....homemade bread is something I haven't done in a long time.....

Plus I used to get emails from this guy all the time but since his 'recommendations' were published I have not received another word from him about DIY or his business.....think he got the message?
lol

Why do auto manufacturers show how safe their vehicles are with crash dummies and steel barricades ?
Why do dessert makers hire models that weigh 103 lbs ?
Why do pet food makers show how happy the dog is eating the food, but never show what the dog does 30 minutes later ?
Why do airline commercials have employees dancing on the counter tops, while the airlines themselves ask you to sleep in floor because your flight is cancelled ?
And why would a vaping merchant be stupid enough to post this ?

Or beat you senseless because they overbooked your flight...
