You know you have arrived when.... ( state yours)

[Marvin & Sennie]

You know what an ohm is

You can build a coil, look at it and know before you test it what ohms it will measure and actually be EXACTLY right!!!

When you don't stress as you are rebuilding a coil because you know it will only take a few minutes

When you vape and pure flavor rolls across your tongue

When you KNOW that you are no longer a smoker because of this brown ( mine) and black box in your hand.

When you no longer think you look stupid putting this gadget up to your mouth and sucking

When 5 minutes after receiving your 1st REO you start drooling and planning for a wooden!!

Good post Sennie

I'll just say ditto to your post ^

 

[Statistic]

I think you just about covered it Sennie

Only thing I could add:

- When you have so much free time now that you're no longer spending hours per week building coils that you get bored and start making coils that spell out the name of your favorite mods

 

[Marvin & Sennie]

Hahahaha perfect addition!!

 

[super_X_drifter]

When you get a sticky thread in the most awesome forum on the planet

 

[ForeverTwoWheels]

...you have a Reo

 

[JC Okie]

....when you can count how long it's been since you were a smoker in YEARS instead of hours, days, or months.

EDIT: Great post, Sennie!

I look forward to saying years! I am up to close to 9 months... next week. I get excited and STILL look at the little ticker at the bottom.

1. When you sold one Provari to get another REO, but keep one "just in case". Then woke up the next morning and realized you might as well sell the other one, and let the "just in case" be another REO.
2. When you "give" your neighbor 130.00 dollars worth of tanks and adapters.
3. When you realize that all those bottles with flavors that you didn't like in tanks, now taste great in your REO.
4. When you no longer use the Provari to measure OHMs or batteries, but now you instinctively reach for your multi-meter.
5. When you spend more time on this site than you do watching TV.
6. When you begin to contemplate using your programing (or learning new a programming language) skills to figure out a way of having text messages sent to you when a woodie shows up on the classifieds shows up in the classifieds so you can buy them before someone else does.
7. When you read Super X's post and actually hear Samuel Jackson's voice.
8. When you have a problem with the REO and figure it out and fix it and realize how simple it was.
9. When you no longer price things in dollars, but instead think "I could get this many REOs for the price of that".

^ all good ! #7 = too funny

 

[Statistic]

Haha.. I think #9 is my favorite on navy's list

 

[Treebeard]

When you realize you haven't played call of duty since you got a reo. Too busy reading post trying to sponge up all the reo wisdom and interacting with reonaut think-a-likes on the forum.

 

[JC Okie]

^^^so true, Statistic! I even gauge things by RM2s.....the other night my son and I went out to eat (my treat) and when the check came, it came to something line $41.80....not counting the tip. I looked at it and said, "I could have had another RM2 for the price of one meal!" My son laughed and offered to split the check. Ha.

 

[CATastrophe]

- When you've finally gotten your hold-out-of-a-spouse to see the REO light and come to the non-fiddly side
- When you're not actively looking for other equipment because what you've got is the CAT's meow.

 

[ltrainer]

When you Google Earth Alfred, Maine

 

[JC Okie]

When you Google Earth Alfred, Maine

I'll bet we'd be surprised at how many of us have done that!!!

 

[Marvin & Sennie]

When you go to the classy and think what can I buy now that I have a REO because everything else sucks!!

 

[debzcf]

Too funny!

You have arrived.

 

[rasci2]

When you realize that no matter what horrible thing you might have done to your REO you can send it to Rob and he will fix it.

 

[JC Okie]

When you realize that no matter what horrible thing you might have done to your REO you can send it to Rob and he will fix it.

......and he might say, "moisture is the enemy of wood" (direct quote)....as he's fixing some of your mistakes, but he'll be nice about it, fix it anyway, and still be your friend.
