The power of suggestion

[squirrel64]

Just received a juice that I thought was really good. So I'm vapin away and my girlfriend says that it smells like really smelly old worn out socks. NOW,,,,,,,,,, all I smell is really smelly old worn out socks ! And it's bad !!! Why did she have to say that darn it !! Now I can't stand it !

But does it taste like smelly old worn socks?

I think your girlfriend's broken, is she still under warranty?

 

[squirrel64]

Not a bad taste at all but now I can't get past the smell long enough to vape it ! ugggggg she hid the warranty papers

I'm with 4mehealth.

Easier to find a New girlfriend than it is to find a Good e-liquid.

I get the same thing with my favorite vape. I've had people say it smells like burnt shoe leather and skunk among other things. I've had others say it smelled great, I just vape and like it.

hey guys........ be easy with that {{{{{power of suggestion}}}}} !!! I know what you're doin

That used to happen to me with analogs. It seemed like there was always one in the pack that smelled like feet. Didn't stop me from smoking it though.

I guess I just never noticed but she is right. So now I'll just let it steep for a while and get real ripe ! Hit her in the car one day with it

You could experiment with cinnamon, which is a really powerful flavour. A couple of drops and you could be vaping Cinnamon Sweat Socks.

I never got the feet. But it does seem that there's always one in the pack that smells like a different plant.

Maybe some people are susceptible to suggestion, and others are susceptible to wishful thinking...

Hmmmm now I statrted wondering just what juice smells like rotten feet? Then I remembered some garbage juice I got from goodejuice, has to be that nasty brand, Yep thats what it must be.

Ha ha its crazy how the mind works isn't it!

 

[squirrel64]

yeah I didn't want to name the juice for fear of ruining it for someone else. For example if someone says anew juice tastes like peanuts and bananas. I automatically start out looking for that taste. It's happened before to me more than once

I had a juice I liked a lot. My wife tried it and said "wow I think there is a little hazelnut in there"

All of a sudden ALL I could taste was hazelnut. Now it sits unused in my shoebox

This thread reminds me of something that happened a couple of weeks ago. My truck was in the shop in a near by city (I live in the sticks) and I needed a ride in to pick it up. A neighbor lady was going into the city anyway so she offered to drive me there. This woman smokes like a chimney and has multiple health problems that she refuses to address. On the way there she was chain smoking one Pall Mall after the other so I asked if I could use my PV.( I mix my own juice and I was using my favorite one that day, Double Chocolate Caramel. My wife who is a non smoker and has a very sensitive nose says it smells like someone's baking cookies when I vape it. ) Well... It wasn't two seconds after I took my first hit that this old chain smoking woman exclaims "Whooo! That stinks!" I just chuckled and put my PV away. I found out later that her husband had been pressuring her to talk to me about ecigs. I don't think she really wanted to.
