I think it's too early to tell.

Say what you want about vaping, but its the reason I don't smoke anymore. So I don't care what people think about me doing it.

Yup, I'm in the same boat. Also I don't do that crazy amount of smoke like I've seen some do.

Be careful with the electronic vaporizers:

Cigarettes have a boat load of chemicals and a lot of them cancerous. Plus it's addicting.

Vaping has less chemicals. Most if not all of them are non cancerous. It really depends on where you get your liquid from. Some are all natural/organic. You can also get nicotine free or a small amount of nicotine in your liquids.

Obviously our lungs were made for air and not this vape stuff but it's pretty obvious that it's healthier than cigarettes.

That's what I do, I have a vape with nicotine free juices, just because I like the way some of them taste.

I also know of 3 or 4 people who have quit smoking entirely just from switching to vaping instead, so it does seem to work fairly well.

I hate it when every time an athlete excels beyond precedent at a particular skill, the immediate response of some people is to change the rules or alter the way the game is played to nullify it.

I was listening to Bill Simmons podcast the other day and he had Kirk Goldsberry on-who I have love for-suggesting that they need to move the 3 point line back even further.

I don't think it matters where they put the line Curry will still make the shot.

When people who work in IT refer to Internet Explorers as Windows, and then have no idea if the do actually have Windows 7, 8, or 10.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

This will be very specific but it annoys the living hell out of me. I have a giant 20+ foot grapefruit tree in my front yard (yea some previous homeowner thought that was a good idea......not the backyard). Well it produces insane amount of grapefruits, its impossible for me to guess how many but I'm loosely throwing out 500+.

Ok so what grinds my gears is how many people just come into my yard and start picking grapefruits. First, I would never dream of just going into someone yard to pick their "produce". Second, I surely wouldn't be bringing ladders and large sacks to take huge amounts at one time.

I've run out around 15 just in 2016 so far. I've had 3 courtesy enough to knock and ASK if they can have a couple to juice. I had one girl who runs a crossfit studio here offer to give my wife some free sessions for "exchanging" goods. I also get x-mas cards from random people every year about "how fantastic the grapefruits were, Merry Christmas to your family"!!!

It drives me up the wall, I've debated putting a fence, even a money drop box knowing they will still take regardless when I'm not home but sadly that is just something else for thieves to steal.

Here is the best one yet.

So I'm laying on my couch, a big window next to the couch I can see the grapefruit from where I lay. My wife says she is running to the store and will be back in a min. I hear her pull out the driveway and I'm just chilling watching some TV when I hear her pull back up, thinking she forgot something. So I look up & out the window to see a women running to her trunk to grab a ladder, passenger door wide open, driver door wide open, trunk wide open, then her and I'm guessing her son take out running for the tree.

So here I am thinking, **** I have to go get dressed to get these people off my property. Takes me a second to throw some clothes on, so by the time I finally make it out the door they have my yard litter in grapefruits. They were just picking really fast from the ladder and throwing them on the ground so they could run around after quickly throwing them in a bag.

So I surprise them with a loud & deep........What the **** are you doing!!!! Took her by surprise and she comes tumbling off this ladder. She then proceeds to act as if she was "at the wrong house"......."This isn't so and so's house?".............How many houses you know with a giant grapefruit tree in the front yard......not many. So I tell her they need to get their asses in their car and get off my property.

Here is best part, she proceeds to tell me she has been SELLING them to the farmers market for .$50 a grapefruit (remember 500+ on this tree and it always goes mysteriously bald around the end of winter). So not only did this women have the audacity to steal them BUT she was selling them for money, MY MONEY! I've been here for 6 years so no telling how long she has been doing this.

At that point I was so pissed I wanted to kick her in her *** on the way out. So I walk back inside after she leaves & I call my wife. Yard still littered in grapefruits, I tell her this women must of been camped out in her car watching our house. She saw her leave thinking no one was home and rushed in to get everything she could before anyone would find out. All of a sudden I hear a knock on the door...........she is back ****.......instead I stayed on the phone with my wife and ignored her. So after a few min, I hang up and walk out the front door to go address the 25+ grapefruits all over my yard..............they are all gone........and under my truck wiper a $20 bill.

Crazy guys...............blows my mind how brazen people are! How nuts do you have to be to stake out a house to steal grapefruits!

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

The $20 on the truck wiper is hilarious.

...and means she'll be back.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

If you're throwing them out anyway why not let someone put them to use?

Maybe you can make a deal with the lady who has been selling them? How does she look?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Well that's the thing, we use them but at the same time I don't mind if they come ask....the problem is people that just come into your yard without permission. I have several neighbors who have come ask and they are more than welcome.

Oh and like a ol crack head lol

Sounds like you found a new hustle to me. She gave you the idea for free, too.
