I'll type s l o w f o r y o u, O K?
Taste is subjective, yes, someone gets a juice and raves about it tasting like this or that then you try it and it tastes nothing like that to you.
Or the juice you just loved when you first started vaping, it was the best ever, then a month or so later it tastes like crap and never works for you again!
If someone even thinks a juice above a certain wattage, voltage, whatever, tastes burnt, then it will always taste burnt to them! Weather it's mental or not, it's subjective to them in that state!
I fail to see how this is so hard to understand, but I do have common sense.
Reader's Digest was correct. Laughter IS the best medicine (a most appropriate reference too, in this case).
