Are you sure he's grown? Personally I'll go for Pbusadro's reviews. But I had to laugh when I read your post.

Yup, Pbusardo is my go to guy. He is real genuine in his reviews and tells it how it is.

I am subbed to Grimmgreen and I do watch the vids but I take his opinions with a grain of salt.

grimmgreen is hilarious. I love his reviews. Hes more down to earth and hes looks at vaping like a moderately advanced vaper does, not a reviewer, but a vaper. PBusardo is funny too and he really breaks things down and helps you understand what you didn't already. Grimm is more the guy I go to watch to see how I'll like what hes reviewing. PBusardo is the guy I watch to see how something functions and works.

Some words just sound like nails scratching along a chalkboard. It's subjective, and I guess it's regional, too.

But the terms "tooting", or "toot", as in "I toot at..." or "Let's take a toot..." makes every synapse in my brain backfire, and as much as I try to be an understanding individual, this, unfortunately, is one of those terms I just cannot find myself accepting. I know this is all my own fault, I don't mean for it to jack-iron my brain, but you could be the COOLEST DUDE EVER, and as soon as you lifted a PV to your lips and said, "Take a toot!" or "Toot this!", my instant reaction is "No".

This HAS to be a regional thing.

I grew up in south west Florida, south eastern Tennesee, and central Ohio, and "toot" means FART (it also means something else, but I won't elaborate).

So every time I see someone saying, "Let's toot this," makes me think of, "Hey, let's fart!"

Gaaah. I know it's my own hang-up, and I try my best to deal with it, but it jars me so much out of an awesome review that the reviewer loses all credibility with me if/when the term "toot" is used.

Why am I so ....?!

I laughed from the start of this all the way to the end LOL :lol: I completly understand, I HATE that term as well!

See? See?! See why it makes it sound so gross to me every time I hear a Youtube person say "Toot!"?!

Unfortunately it has to be a regional thing, or maybe a familial thing, with a term being repeated over and over until it's the accepted and preferred term.

"Toke" isn't that bad, really. But I think vapers (at least the ones I know) would eventually look down their nose on anyone using "toke" too much. We're not pious, but "toke"... Our group uses "hit this vape", or "take a hit off this", "lemme hit that," or even "take a rip off this". Sometimes if we're being mock-pushy we'll say, "Lemme hit yo [blank]."

Again, it is mostly a regional thing, and we usually end up talking like our friends.

Still. I hate toot.
