Be careful!

I just had a little accident whilst mixing a batch of Honey Pearry clone. I must have pushed too hard on the syringe or didn't insert the needle correctly and the needle shot out of the syringe and the contents went everywhere. Got a bit of the back splash on my face and in my eye but luckily for me it was just strawberry flavourings so no harm done apart from smelling a bit dapper. I hate to think what would happen if I had the nic base in there instead of the flavouring.

Don't be an idiot like me and take care when handling the syringes!

I've gotten 46mg nic in my eye a couple times.

It hits your eye and you actually have time to think, "Fuck. This is going to hurt." Then it hurts. A lot.

Yikes! Did you just wash it out with water or did you have to go to the ER or something?

Remember that if you get stuff in your eye you should always wash it out ASAP.

I recently spilled an entire bottle of Capella Coconut on the floor in the bathroom. Going to the bathroom has never felt so... uh, tropical.

This has happened to me twice.... where the blunt tip shoots off INTO the 30ml bottle. Damn thing gets stuck in there and there's no way to get it out other than to cut the bottle up. Very annoying.

Slow is better.

There is a lot of benefit to wearing glasses. Always have eye protection and sunglasses on.
