I think it's nice to take a moment and remember getting called deluded early this year, as someone told me making it this far in the project simply wouldn't be happening.
Well, here we are. I'd actually like to dedicate this post to that person to thank them - I seriously don't think I would've taken the replication issue as seriously as I have without that. As nice as it is to have the nostalgic aroma of my mid-teenage years return, it's also just nice to provide an undercut to a ridiculously overpriced yet declining market.
I'll take an aside for a moment, just to kinda look around and enjoy the rest of the run, while we're still approaching the finish line. That pack of Mango pods during spring break was one of the last things R bought for me before we stopped talking and he passed away. House was empty, family in another state, ton of liquor, weed, friends and gf at my place, chilling with mango pods... and R was still alive, and hanging out with us all. He had my back when C's dumbass tried to steal my shit. R, I know you're proud of me. Just wish we could catch up, but we can't right now. No biggie bro.
Anyway, to the fella that called me delusional, thank you. I really wouldn't have found it in myself to do this without the pressure of my capability applied. This goes out to you and R.
Just doubling down to call you a fucking moron again. In what world would someone posting the recipe for coca cola work for coke? Are you on crack?
