This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

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)

[–] towerful@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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?

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Or, as everything else, is fake and gay

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago

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...

[–] H4mi@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

Juice maker here: the tops are all detachable.

[–] uis@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I’ve never seen one where the top is not detachable.

Nice one.

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

Anon sounds like a genuinely good partner

[–] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

meh, good intentions but tampering with someones consumables without permission is assault if you ask me.

If she's old enough to vape then she's old enough to make the decisions for herself

[–] criitz@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

This is BS. By the third or fourth bottle shed be like wtf is up with this juice?

(This reduction method helped me quit, but it's not imperceptible like that)

[–] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I tapered off vaping using the same method, and there is a clear difference in the feeling of a pull when you cut the nicotine down. Also, you can't just "cut" the nicotine, you'd have to find some way to enhance the flavor of the diluted mix otherwise it will just get more bland. All of that being said, this is a valid strategy for kicking it. Just buy lower nicotine content bottles until you get down to 0% nic, and if your your experience is like mine, you just wake up one day and don't reach for the vape on the nightstand.

[–] Chippyr@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Other than being blatantly fake this is really nice.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is literally how I quit, except I did it intentionally.

But this is fake because the jump from 0.001 to 0.000 was like the ground disappearing beneath my feet.

For the previous week I was only using 0 nic juice in a pod that previously held a tiny amount of nic (we're talking trace amounts near the end - I wasn't feeling a thing).

Anyway I thought I was going through withdrawal so hard with the 0 nic in the used pod, but NOPE switch to 0 nic in a fresh pod and it was like "welcome to withdrawal 2."

Still really happy I quit though. It's so great not going into a panick whenever I misplace my vape for like 42 seconds. That was always so fucking humbling.

Finally, some hard evidence for homeopathy

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Tack a few more zeros in there and sure.

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

And then the gf decides she wants to try a new flavor, buys her "normal" nic strength, and fills her vape up with it before anon has a chance to dilute it.

[–] red@sopuli.xyz 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

50% nic lmao. Fake as hell.

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

OP probably means 50mg which is standard high concentration nic salts (freebase is most commonly 3mg). People often mistake mg for percentage in vaping.

[–] steeznson@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

The story is a bit controlling/manipulative in my opinion. Even if the net outcome is good I'd feel like I was overstepping a boundary if I did this to my partner.
