and that is why, aside from my first time being a fat bong rip (fuck you, Nik, that was a dick move), I have never intentionally inhaled smoke once in my life. It does not take an entire scientific study to figure out that inhaling hot smoke from something burning, and all the myriad chemical reactions therein, may not be the healthiest thing to huff.

now, that said, I do vape with a dynavap on a daily basis, so. Let's hope it's down to the smoke and not the plant itself.

If it was hot smoke, the bong was shit. If your friend told you to rip a huge one for your very first hit your friend was shit. Totally understandable why you don't like smoking. I absolutely hate smoking specifically because.... Well it's smoking. My throat hates it, my lungs hate it, and the taste stays for many hours no matter how many times you brush your teeth because it's all over your throat and smothering your alveoli

I'll occasionally use a vape, but I prefer edibles. It's much more controlled and I can calculate average times until I'm okay to do certain things.
