    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…

        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.

        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.

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

    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)

      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.

      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

        but she also wanted to quit. this seems fine by me, cuz that shit ain’t healthy and anon wasnt forcing her the idea of quitting since she had already tried to do it herself, and the anon also wasn’t taking the feeling of winning away from her. just a little white lie to help her achieve her goals.

        if she wouldn’t want to quit though, that would be pretty fucked

          “if she wouldn’t want to quit though”

          she didn’t really get a change to make that decision for herself though, did she?

              i keep going back and looking for the bit where he specifically asked if he could start mixing random substances into her vape juice but i just can’t find it. perhaps you could point it out for me?

              Edit: “My gf was complaining about not being able to sleep so i started putting sleeping pills in her drinks”… that’s what you sound like

    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.
