OK...so basically take this advice. Ive read this already and the rest of the thread is people basically joking around making soup jokes. At the bottom of the thread Swale says its ok about the needle size, but nothing about if he condone whats the article says, or about what he does personally. Everything else I guess "about the questions I asked which were a little different" I will just assume as thats why im here at Meso.

I have always alternated legs and location of injections.
You can stick the needle anywhere, and although it is intramuscle, I
have found it does not matter at all as long as it gets into your
body, so I stick the needle in about 3/4 of an inch and as I push
the juice in I slowly raise the needle so by the time the juice is
it the needle is maybe 1/2 inch stuck in there. This allows the
juice to be driven into a larger area resulting in less localized
pain. Also, vary by a couple inches where in upper thigh you stick
the needle, and vary which leg to use. You could stick it in your
own bun/hip area but I never tried this because I like to see
exactly what I am doing. Also, you really should not have any pain
afterwards if you take the time to gently stretch and warm the
injection site so the needle goes into warm relaxed skin, and face
the beveled edge of needle away from you so as the arm come straight
down it will easily pierce the flesh, push the juice in dead slow
raising the needle slowly, and don't drive it in way deep, it is not
necessary, only need to get in the flesh a little more than 1/2 inch
or so I figure. Some people draw the juice from the bottle with a
larger needle and then switch to a smaller needle for injection, I
don't bother I use the same for both and I use the same needle twice.
And do take a DIM or two a day, maybe a copper with zinc pill every
other day or so, really knock off sugar and bread as they promote
fat and allow more estrogen excess to put fat in your breasts as
your body says hey this is a LOT of testosterone all at once and
I'll just dump some of this into estrogen because I don't need it
all right now. I shoot 100mg about once every 9 days or so. I find
any more often the steroid effect causes too much water retention
and weight gain, which I hate more than not having enough T. I have
tried Androgel, Androgerm, compounded gels, etc,etc. They all work
pretty good but have to applied daily and not everyone's skin
absorbs the same. Everyone responds to shots and you only need to
think about it every week or so. I like that.
let me know if all this rambling helps at all
