I've vaped the same flavor for over 2 yrs. :D It always tastes like strawberries & cream... it's just that sometimes, I don't taste it *correctly* -- usually when I'm a little sick, OR, it's time for me to reduce the flavoring again -- signifying that more of my sense of taste has returned. So yeah -- a smoker's tongue, in recovery. :D

When people go by pulse rather than constant discharge with their batteries. (exception of experienced or cloud comp vapers)
Then they ask why their batteries are getting hot when vaping a series at .2Ω/3Ω
Baby bird jumping out the nest a little too soon..

Amen
 
When someone's turn signal is on and they haven't turned. Also, people who say "mornin" instead of "good morning"

People in 4 wheel drive vehicles that drive around above the speed limit on icy roads thinking the have 4 Wheel STOP!

I just love seeing them in ditches 10 minutes later when I drive by.

ROFLMAO, let it slide..
I've tried multiple times. Even left the one thread to go elsewhere for the conversation.
To me, that's the line of demarcation.
The insults themselves were funny at first. Now, it's like groundhog day.

Surely you know he's trolling you.
He thinks he found a button and he's gonna push it. Up to you whether said button
finishes the circuit or not.
Short it. ;)

Yeah, I know and you are certainly right.
I guess the thing is, it's rare to have any conversation in that thread at all, because of the trolling. I was hoping returning the favor would make a point.
- just made me equally childish though.

Exactly.
I understand the problem, EJ goes over and trolls. You go over and try to discuss
and have a right to state your opinion
but some folks have closed their minds so tightly the diff between rational discussion
and trolling escapes them altogether..I've seen similar reactions to people who
if anyone took the time to understand their statements they'd realize shared similar opinions.

I got grief only because I pointed out that there is a real alt right
that is dangerous as hell (CI, neo-nazis, ETC) and that indeed some "Republicans" are racist.
That type of statement is totally unacceptable to some...as is,
here's one for ya..I got grief on facebook from a Trumpet
because I oppose the Standing Rock pipeline..got grief from another 'cause I oppose police brutality.

WTF!? Some cops are pigs..Why should I put a blue line across my flag?
A blue line on my flag wouldn't show 'cause I fly the Jolly Roger...

The big problem I see, purely my own observation, is that very FEW people are on either side. Most are in the middle with leanings on both depending on issue.
To me it's more of a game, pic the issue lost important to you and leave it there.
By that end, if you're an outdoorsman, or oil, you cant pick the environment as your issue. When the reality is, a true outdoorsman has the environment as their primary issue, to preserve it for the next generation.
I guess most 'issues' are pushed so far out for the bounds of being realistic you're forced to choose column 'a' or 'b' and sacrifice upwards of 60&70℅ of your real ideals.
Take that and apply it to the last 3 elections and we've done more than create a pressure cooker in alot of people's minds, when all they need is a damn beer.

See, I agree there. But what I'm more or less saying is
Let's say a person is:
Pro gun control
Pro environment
Anti state run healthcare
That's a very generic break down, but this person now has a choice.

Back the healthcare or the gun control.
I guess my point is I don't see many people who walk a real party line, unless it's their job too- those are the ones that need a DSM.

your assumption is these people even know what they are pro or anti against they mostly do not in fact if cornered most do not know enough about the issues to even comment but will pick and choose statements made by others to suit their state of mind at the moment.

yep makes me sick my own family does it they need a spanking in da face
im a christian and it irritates me. its a half ass way to look good to others like when people say happy birthday to you on facebook. I made my birthday secret just so people wouldnt wish me happy birthday. It weeds out the ones who dont give a shit. I dont need people i havent spoken to since highschool posting on my facebook once a year because facebook reminded them to.

not to mention, someone wishes you a happy birthday on facebook, now you gotta remember to return the favor. Basically have to keep a checklist of everyone just so you dont get someones panties in a bunch because they wished you a happy birthday and you forgot theirs.

I went through unfriending some people on fb, then just unfriended fb altogether. I visit once every few months to read, but that is it.
