Double jointed hands, hips & knees - my son is the same. ,,, Not sure about "stretchy" lol
Some sort of hair fettish,, I can feel hair growing. Which is a pia cuz I have thick hair... this leads to random runs to the bathroom to pluck out an annoying eyebrow sprout
Most recent hobby- bio hacking,,, figuring out what the body can do despite what we are taught/think

Just make sure you don't get your tanks confused,I've ruined a few wicks/coils by putting minty juice in the wrong one...

In the early days of my DIY journey, I accidentally primed a new coil with Licorice FLAVORING instead of a DIY mix I wanted to try

Once, only once - I havent even tried licorice vapes again since then, and that was in 2015 :(

Wow the double jointed thing is cool and cool that it passed on to your son.

I don’t feel hair growing, but I’m a natural blonde. Sometimes I find pure black frizzy hairs that don’t stay flat no matter what I do, so I pluck them out. Dunno why I bother doing it lol

Gah! That must’ve been terrible! I don’t like anything licorice so I can only assume it was horrendous!

Double jointed hips & knees are not cool when they hinge out unexpectedly,, all of sudden your walking gate shifts,, you can fall at the worst times,,, i iike to hike,, so each step is a mental "system check" of both zones,,, buts awesome if you're getting yourself into tight spaces,,, like inside a childs ride toy,, or the kiddy cart at the grocery store! :)

I keep wanting to post my odd traits, but I can't seem to find a place to start...maybe with A, and go through the alphabet?
Do it!!! I want to see people’s odd traits!! I keep trying to think of more for myself but I can’t seem to find really weird ones

There's my weird thing, I like licorice flavor so that doesn't sound terrible to me. Probably not so good as straight flavoring but I'd love to vape something with licorice in it.

Another weird trait, I'm a self-persecuting grammar Nazi. I don't particularly care about other's grammar, but if I notice a grammatical error or incorrect spelling of my own I have to fix it. Until it comes to commas, I'm terrible at noticing my run-on sentences.

I'm not a black licorice eater, never have been, but it's a really, really good vape, especially if you like Jager. Been a long, long time since I had Jager, but it's not a flavor you soon forget.

Do you know if I can use anise extract as a flavoring for my juice? I bought a diy starter kit last night and would love to be able to use it in my juice.

Without knowing it's ingredients, I probably wouldn't. FlavourArt makes a FANTASTIC anise flavoring. I get all my stuff at BCF, very popular vendor, and the owner even participates here.

The one I have is alcohol, water, and oil of anise. Thanks for the link, I'll be buying more flavors very soon so I'll definitely check out bcf.

Oil of anise, I'll have to say no, plus the amount of alcohol in those is probably a bit much, lol. No oil, better safe than sorry.

On a side note, and no I don't work for them, just a big fan, but they'll be doing a Halloween sale soon, too.

Coolio, I was just curious if you or anyone else had experience mixing with extracts for baking, I'll just wait until I have the stuff everyone trusts. Thanks for the tips. :D

I do, bad experience

Cooking flavorings are super, super weak compared to flavor concentrates used in DIY, have way too much alcohol, and if it has any oil "just say no"

I also like black licorice. I used to keep a bag in my locker at work a few years back. xD NOM NOM NOM now I want some and I have none, alas

I guess I should clarify, I don't like black licorice, just the flavor and smell of the anise. I don't like any licorice really, not a fan of the texture.

Just the thought of the taste of any licorice make me want to hurl.

Similar to my reaction to thinking about Jaeger - I could swear I started getting heartburn just thinking about Jaegerbombs lol

Yay, points for huckleberried. Double points if you didn't have to look it up. There is also Boranj, it's in Bosnia. Noranj, it's a holy book. And my favourite orange, the fruit not the colour, perfect rhyme lol.;)
I feel like an idiot. I had to google sporange after your post to see it was a real thing... I thought it was just a funny rhyme!

I do the TV volume thing, has to be even except 21 coz that's perfect. It took my wife about 8 years to notice, now it's a running joke she'll put it wrong in other people's houses and see how long I'll last before I'll say something or try and change it so nobody notices, it makes us laugh

One of my odd traits is I have to research information if I am skeptical of a claim that's new to me, and I'm always skeptical.

I can only find "sporange" in one "real" dictionary - merriamwebster's online dictionary. I suppose that counts. It's a neologism for sporangium. It's not a valid word in Scrabble or in any hard-copy dictionary that I can find.

Boranj, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, is pronounced like this- https://translate.google.com/#view=home&op=translate&sl=bs&tl=en&text=Boranj and the the English pronunciation also does not rhyme with orange.

I can't find information on Noranj, the holy book, anywhere

I did find that there is a town in India Bhoranj - https://translate.google.com/#view=home&op=translate&sl=hi&tl=en&text=Bhoranj
And this rhymes. :>

Yay points for zephyr, for finding the place in India. And extra for being skeptical. ;)
