Dear Dr. DC2-Phil.... Or perhaps his assistant Nurse Ocelot....

I recently got hot cauliflower in my eye, should I lick my eyelids to help? Hurry please I'm in peril.

This is very serious!! You must immediately lick your elbow and rub your eye with it! If you don't hurry you could go deaf!

Doesn't everything?
Eat more cauliflower, I heard that like forty pounds of it contains the equivalent of 70mgs of Prozac

You're thinking of grapefruit.

ETA: Why is it vegetables, but not fruits? They're always counting apples and oranges, not broccoli and spinach - For the Love of God Make it Stop!!!!

:offtopic: Dude! This is the cauliflower thread. I get it that you're worried ProVape won't increase their sales this quarter since they've run out of blems, but give it a rest fanboi. Try upping your eggplant consumption.

On the other hand, the Proveggie vapes cauliflower.

(Also, Brussels sprouts. But not broccoli.)

And yet, there are things on that very list that could point to a very very serious medical illness, even ones that require emergent care.

"list of symptoms" type lists are really not helpful because the symptoms can be the same across a variety of ailments, some not serious, others VERY serious.

I worry very much about new vapers, who are experiencing health problems which may have been "underlying" and have nothing to do with vapiing, being told that their symptoms are common to being a "new vaper".....and then they do not seek immediate medical care, thinking it is normal.

Example, any ex smoker who develops mouth sores needs to see a doctor. Oral cancer is a serious thing and can pop up in an ex smoker at any time. Even years into vaping.

Help I just wasted my money on a Provari. I spent $200 on this crappy thing and my $2 for 50mil juice, in my $3 Vivi clone still tastes like burnt crap. Damn you Provari! My $10 Mod with no warranty, no customer support, or directions in English worked just as good. No Ego threads, No VW (whats VW again?) It's heavy and it doesn't vibrate when I walk past another Provari user.
P.S. even though I just spent $200 on a Mod I wont spend more than $3 on a atty. Also I don't want anything more complicated than turning my TV on.

don't forget cheap batteries and cheap chargers. :)

While I do get the joke, I have to wonder:

So, if somebody is going to vape cheap juice and use a cheap clearomizer, they should not be encouraged to get a Provari.

If it doesn't make cheap juice taste better, and it doesn't enhance the use of a normal marketplace clearo/carto, then isn't it just an expensive flashlight body with some bells and whistles?

New provari owners should be told ahead of time then, that they are in for a very expensive ride, going forward......since they now have to buy expensive juice and expensive delivery devices, in order to really receive any appreciable benefit from their $200 mod.

Not really a question but.......So my wife is out Birthday shopping for our 6 year old niece at the mall. She walks by a Spencers and sees a "Magic 8 Ball" in the window. She squeals "Oh My God" I loved mine as a kid, it would be perfect for her! Apparently she was just as easily amused as a child. So she purchases said 8 ball..........at a Spencers, wraps it up and gives it to our much beloved niece, at her stupid large Birthday party. My wife is on pins and needles waiting for her to open it. Finally the moment comes, she practically wills the wrapping paper off the Spencers "Magic 8 Ball". So my wife instructs my adorable, innocent niece in how to use the magic fortune telling device from the land of unicorns and rainbows......purchased at a Spencers.....So my innocent elfin like niece asks her question.......shakes the 8 ball...and gets her answer.........."Go F Yourself!" except it wasn't simply an F it had all four letters. Noticing the Box, it said "Not so Magic 8 Ball", "Not For Children". My Wife's excuse, she thought that it meant it could be a choking hazard.
My Question....How did she make it this far in life with out walking into a bus or something.
:laugh: I can't stopp laughing, this is pretty durn funny!

I think that's pretty much the case with all high end mods. I think of it as a system. Good Mod+Good Atty+good juice=Great vape. If the juice is crap or you are using a crap atty, a provari isn't going to fix it. All mods are just a fancy battery holder with some bells and whistles. I whole hardily agree there should be a sticky or something in the newb forum on "buying your first mod and what to expect". I didn't buy a Provari for the flavor, that's what I have a Kayfun for. I bought it for it's reliability, customer support etc. I was never told "Buy a Provari, it makes crap taste good". I'm not a fanboi, or fanboy, or fanperson. When something demonstratively better comes along, I'm sure I'll trade up. In the mean time I will continue to shake my head every time I read a post by someone who is upset because their Provari doesn't slice bread, make breakfast or cure the common cold.
