You know you're a Canadian vaper when...

[BlondieLocs]

So I bundled myself up to take a quick run to the Post Office to pick up my shipment. I open the front door. I close the front door. I go back in the house and put on a toque. I run to the truck and hop in...

Damn thing won't start. (My boyfriend in his infinite wisdom thought it would be smarter to take my Hummer out to the rig and leave me his POS Dodge. So now I guess I really am stranded in Standard.) Well, screw it, I said to myself. I'm already outside. I'll just walk.

Brilliant. It's -40 outside with the windchill. (To you lurking Americans that's about, oh... MINUS FORTY!) And the snow is knee deep on my driveway.

So I trudged the 5 blocks to the Post Office (I'd say it was uphill both ways, but this isn't a work of fiction). Got there and noticed the idiot TOOK MY MAILKEY with him. ~sigh~ Damn good thing that I had that major debacle last month and the Postmistress now knows me by name and sight. She still neglected to get my signature for the parcel, though.

So then I get to walk home - this time against the wind, and with an armload of mail, because really... why would I have thought to bring a bag?

Now, I'm huddled in my bed... (I'm sure I have frostbite in places I didn't know you could get frostbite) but I'm vaping away on a new eGo-T. (And yes, the 1000mAh is loooooong.)

Geez, we're a hardy folk, eh? (Or maybe just masochistic.)




PS. This thread is having a love affair with parentheses.

THAT'S determination! And soooo worth it!!!

-40 and 40 feet of snow? thats a heatwave and drought in Alberta lol. I dont miss going outside in minus 40 windy blowing blizzard for an analog, and now you had to go threw that for your package lol.

 

[WiηgC¤mmαηdεя]

We will do just about anything required to retrieve those waiting supplies wont we? - LOL
We had a record 120 centimetres of snow for Feb so I can relate to the difficulties in receiving the order you are waiting on.

 

[Lil-Stewie]

Minus 40? Holeee thermal undies that's chilly!!

Ask me why I like living in south western Ontario

BlondieLocs! It was -44C this morning with windchill... my trek to the mailbox isn't nearly as far as yours but I'm excited to do it when my new batteries come in from electro-vapors.

Maybe if that thick load of hair on your head goes down to your feet, or you own a bazzillion dollar sub polar artic wear suit... it "might" be fun.

Blondie.... tell your beau to build you a damn garage, or at least plug in your vehicles during a cold snap AND install auto starts, lol.

I would, but he's up north in the oilfield. For some reason he expected me to figure out that I should have plugged it in myself. (I haven't had to plug in a vehicle in 10 years.) Would have been easier if he parked it within reach of the extension cord.

Sent from my big mouth using Trollatalk.

I sure don't miss my days in Alberta, 70 feet up in the derrick on the bald ... prairies, you had to get the steamer guy to spray you down to get a good layer of ice on you to cut the wind. LOL Not much warmer here but at least we have trees.

 

[labradorlost]

Speaking of the cold, anyone use there vape outside in the cold? I realize you have to keep the battery warm and the liquid will thicken (what's the freezing point of PG and VG , I wonder?), but how do the carts, mouthpieces and atomizers hold up?

 

[labradorlost]

Well here is a PG chart.

lmfao, sorry I have to...

You know you're a Canadian vaper when;

Your eGo is plaid.

Your e-liquid is the consistency of Molasses outside.

Your ski-doo is threaded for a 510.

You wish there was a rim to roll up on your Juicy Clear Timmies Double Double.
