    Good intentions, implementation, and results here, but seriously folks, think VERY carefully about what you’re doing when you tamper with something someone’s putting in their body.

    Do not try at home to the nth degree.

      implying anyone on 4chan gives a shit about consent

      this made me really uncomfortable too, also its extremely fake, you can’t ‘take apart’ a vape juice bottle (theyre a single piece of plastic), and no one on 4chan has a girlfriend (lol)

        You can take apart juice bottles.
        The least realistic part is that anon managed to get to and dilute every bottle their gf used.
        Cause if they miss one, their gf is gonna have a serious shock.

        So, lack of consent and extremely controlling?

          That’s a very good point. The fictitious gf is the one buying the bottles. So if they are used to 1% nicotine and pick up a regular strength one, they’re going to use it, and immediately notice the difference…

        I take apart mine every time I buy one. To add nicotine. Maybe there are different kinds of bottles? I’ve never seen one where the top is not detachable.

        Maybe the ones you use can’t be taken apart but dont assume the whole world aligns to your image of it

        Just be open to things possibly being different to what you experience them to be

        What sketchy cheap shit are you using? I’ve used a vape for a decade now, and you can remove the nipple cape on every single bottle.

          Totally wrong. Most juice comes in squeeze plastic bottles with a little nipple for filling a refillable vape.

          When I was lowering my dose I bought 120ml of my favorite flavors and diluted it down with PG and VG off the shelf.

          Traditionally it’s really just PG (propylene glycol), VG (vegetable glycerin), flavor agents, and nicotine/nicotine salts. Nicotine itself you can buy in gallon form, suspended in PG or VG, at a dilution of 100mg/ml. Unsure on nicotine salts. But just reducing it with PG, VG, or both, is no less safe than the vape itself.

      Mixing vape juice is standard practice though. You can buy nicottine free vape juice everywhere. If you splti 50mg with nic free at 50:50 you have… 25mg! It’s extremely common FYI

      Nicotin is already tampering itself… least one could do is remove it.

      Would you be saying the same thing if it was about diluting vodka with water?

      …because that’s what mixing vape juice with juice base is.

        Yes I would, tampering is dangerous shit even when you think you’re being benign about it.

        Not to mention the implicit overstepping of boundaries and violation of knowing consent.

          If I was making a cocktail for a friend, and, eyeballing the ratios, ended up putting too little vodka in it, would that still be tampering?

            If you can’t tell the difference between messing up a cocktail mix and intentionally tampering with a drink or drug formula I don’t know what to tell ya man.

              Noone is talking about medication.

              Everyone is talking about reducing the active ingredient in a serving of a recreational psychotropic drug by serving more of the (not “a”, but “the”) carrier dilute. If Anon’s GF doesn’t get the nic she needs, she’ll take more puffs. If you don’t get the buzz you want, you’ll ask for another cocktail.

              Y’all can ride on the technical definition of “tampering” but a) the cocktail mix not being as expected (e.g. “as done last time round”) would amount to the same, “Hey this Mojito is practically virgin!” and b) there’s a rather huge difference between diluting or strengthening the active ingredient and c) on a whole another escalation scale, adding something that’s not supposed to be in the serving at all. Like, dunno, CBD in a Bloody Mary. Yet another magnitude: Vitamin E acetate in vape juice (don’t do that that’s where the popcorn lung cases came from).

              Can you make those distinctions in your mind or is the concept of “tampering” mushing it all together?

            Your friend knew you were mixing it though

            If you were to go around a party pouring water in everybody’s drinks when they aren’t looking, I would consider that tampering, yes.

              If I were to hand everyone shots of pure tap water when they’re expecting vodka, would that be tampering?

              Note if you say “no” then you’re literally no fun at parties. Zero. Nilch. Less actually, you’re negative fun.
