Hookah Options

[xTINAA]

I know there are other topics about smoking and what not, however, I wanted to talk specifically about hookah. If you have no idea what hookah is, look here.

Anyway, I've noticed that lately it seems to have become more popular (at least that I know of) and more people seem to be going to hookah bars and whatnot. Well, I just have some questions for you all.

Have you tried it?
Would you try it?
What are your thoughts about it?

Just basically have a discussion about here.

(by the way, I put this in health because it seemed other people put smoking topics in here, but if it should be moved to some place like The Lounge, please do so)

So yes, I tried hookah before. I don't really think it's all that great, it's more of just something to do. Plus it's interesting. I don't get a buzz or anything off of it. I've tried various flavored tabacco like strawberry, watermelon, and orange. I don't really think it's as bad for you when compared to smoking cigarrettes or weed. After all it is legal once you turn 18 and the effects of it are a lot less damaging, or so I've heard/read.

I love the hookah. Really I do. Its really soft and gentle and can actually help your respiration system if you get into the habit of taking really big drags (like the one pictured above) and it tastes good. Its very gentle, like smoking steam. I've only done it like 3 times (if that) and I got a buzz. If you want to get a buzz, just sit there and smoke for a long time. Then try to walk around. you'll feel it, but it doesnt last. Its a great way to relax and just talk to people without breaking the law (unless youre underage) and without harming your health. and I'm against smoking cuz I'm a singer. But hookah like I said is like breathing steam. we used to ahve contests to see who could suck in the most. But I digress. Just be careful you know whats in your hookah. People will put weed and stuff that even worse in there so make sure you know who you hookah with.

It's important to specify that smoking a hookah does not significantly lower health risks related to smoking. Smoke from a hookah still contains dangerous carcinogens, as well as other toxic substances from both the tobacco, and the fuel (charcoal) used to heat the tobacco.
