Been vaping for almost 2 weeks now and the stupidest thing I had done so far was also one of the luckiest things that I had done so far. I was putting a new tank on my Ego-T and it was hard to get it to click in there like it normally does. (Mind you this was a brand new tank, not a tank that had simply been refilled.) I shrugged it off and went about my vaping. I started to notice that it started to taste funny, then the horrid burning smell started. I was thinking to myself, "its cause I changed to a differed flavor, this will go away." Well it didn't go away and I started to panic. I had only brought one atomizer to work and I was two hours out from being done with work and about one hour from home. I searched everywhere on the forums about horrid smells coming from the Ego-T and really learned how different people clean their systems, but again I was still a long way off from getting home.

I then looked at my Ego and noticed the tank still had not been sitting properly. I pulled the tank off the atomizer and guess what I noticed? The needle did not punch a hole through the darn cap! I swapped out the cap and suffered through the bad taste and smell then, pure bliss. That was pretty stupid, but on the positive side I inadvertently dry burned my system and the atomizer has never vaped better! What a relief!

Me too I'm afraid. :p

I let a neighbor use my extra eGo last weekend. He looked thru my juice collection and chose an old bottle of Camel flavor. I no longer care for analog flavors, so it sits unvaped. He used it for a few hours, no big deal. The next morning I absentmindedly topped off the cart with the very last drops of my current favorite bwb cafe mocha. Coffee and a cigarette used to be a favorite morning treat, but THAT was one of the nastiest things I've ever tasted. Ewwww.... I called it mocha ....

I have have a small handful of 510 batts I rotate. I let them all die :(. Nothing like staring at batts on a charger.
Another one I was witha few of my buddies after switching to Ecigs and whipped it out. First time they seen one, asked me all kinds of questions. I smirked because I was one up on the smokers and put it in my mouth backwards and pushed the button. My mouth lit up. I am cool but not that cool.

Not really a stupid thing I did but the people around me sure thought it was.
Back when I was still using a 510, you should have seen the looks on peoples
faces when I took a few "drags" and blew out a cloud of vapor ;) , then stuck it
in my pocket and carried on like nothing was wrong.

I had one (when I was using 510's still) that was white / red LED. It's fun to see the look on someone's face when they tell you "Put that OUT!", and you say "Okay...", then stick it on your tongue and start screaming...

-I originally posted this in the general section not knowing this thread existed, but here it goes..

So yea.. The wife and kid goto sleep, I grab a few beers and away I go into the realm of the interwebs.

I start getting a little tipsy, which usually means I become extremely clumsy.

So I'm just chillin' on ECF, listening to some music, and grab a bottle of juice to drip.. Take a nice big puff, and proceed to choke and gag up half of tonights dinner.

I look and realize what I just dripped..

A bottle of extra strength 12-hour relief Afrin Nasal Spray.

I thought it was pretty funny after I got the taste out my mouth, so I figured I'd share.
 
I did my first stupid thing about 5 hours ago when my eGo arrived. I lit up right off the bat. no juice, didn't even take the blank cartrige out. the vapour was probably the primer liquid. tasted ok though hehehehe. I quickly rectafied the problem and am now actually vaping e juice hehehehe. 2 hours later, threw my drip tip on, and ALMOST vaped without dripping off the bat hehehehe. I love being a noobie.
 
I had 5 ce2's taken apart, laying on a paper towel to dry out from being cleaned. While the stuff dried I was mixing some redbox flavor and menthol from glass bottles. I went to reinsert the dropper for the menthol back into the bottle but missed and knocked the bottle on its side, spilling menthol juice everywhere. And my first reaction was to grab for something absorbent. Needless to say, 25 tiny pieces of carto when flying everywhere!
