On a serious note, I've never smoked and I never will

I have never smoked either. Never will either. Growing up my mother smoked until she quit on my 13th birthday, and has never smoked since then.

I have enough bad habits without having smoking being one of them

Oh wow - 80% nonsmokers. awesome

I myself have two habits - One is that if it happens (and that is extremely rare) that I get totally drunk AND someone offers me a cigarett, I will take it. After that my friends can carry me home though. That happened about 4 times total.
The other is that I occasionally (like 3 times a year) use the waterpipe I brought with me from Persia.

i got told that smoking from a bong is stronger than smoking it in a joint or pipe...is that true?

On the subject of tobacco, I used to smoke a pipe occasionally, but because other people in my family can't handle tobacco being around with getting addicted, I stopped for their sake.

I smoke "tobacco" using all three methods, and from my experiences it really doesn't matter how you smoke as long as you get it in your lungs. People will say bongs get you more toasted however bongs themselves are mostly designed to give a more pleasurable, less toxic rip. The main reason people say bongs get you more medicated is because since you can take bigger hits, you get more THC.

Fun fact, it only takes 5-9 seconds(depending on the amount of smoke you're ingesting) for all of the vaporized THC to diffuse across the capillaries in your lungs, so holding in smoke for 30 seconds doesn't make a difference, except that you're depositing 3x more carbon in your lungs than you would otherwise.

Whether a blunt, bowl, joint, hookah, or bong, it all depends on the size of the rip, so while some smoking paraphernalia may get you baked faster, you end up using the same amount of product. When it comes to vaping, I'd say that's the way to get the most bang for your buck, because with that method you're essentially inhaling straight up THC.

I never smoked tobacco from a "bong" - only from a ar water pipe. I cannot compare it to cigarettes either, so I cannot relly say anything about that comparison.

I've never touched a cigarette... never want to. Besides, even on the off chance I did, my mum would probably sense it with her supermum senses, and kick my ass.

Eitherway, I've still seen those tar covered lungs in jars that they like to show you in school... scarred for life.

Definitely. Great way to discourage people

As for water pipes (which do work in a very similar way to a bong), they aren't as bad as smoking directly as they filter out quite a lot of the nastier substances and also cool the smoke down a bit. Of course, the tobacco you use in those is actually not as bad in the first place anyway, it contains less chemical additives.

I was on Columbine for a week, in my spare time, but I stopped taking it when I noticed I was wearing winter gear in summer. I did it twice in the week mind you, I was too busy with school and stupid people.

Decided to bump this thread since I find it interesting

I smoke cigarettes mainly when I am drinking (not as often as you may think but probably more often than I should ) and only when others are smoking them. That said I do currently have a pack and will randomly light one up but never been a point of getting addicted. I will be ceasing the use of the cigs soon though as I dont like the smell really haha.

On the other hand I also smoke cigars which I like much better. These I dont smoke often at all, only special occasions really and will probably always smoke them. Marry jane is the one thing I will probably never smoke though

Reviving the wacky tabaccy thread? Lol jk, but the occasional cigar once every few months is nice, other than that smoking is nasty. The worst is chewing tobacco...Gunny knows, everyone in this state freaking does it, and seeing water bottles with chaw spit is just fackin gross.
