Just wondering if anyone here smokes the hookah. For those who don't know. Hookah is a method for smoking flavored tobacco with molasses. Its booming social thing here in Vegas.

I had read that they were making a comeback, but in answer to your question, no. Anyway you use tobacco it still does that whole death thing.

I've smoked hookah, and bigshotprof is right, I read that one hit of hookah is just as bad as smoking 100 cigarrettes.

I don't smoke hookah, nor do I have any evidence to disprove you, but I'm pretty sure that's a bullshit statistic.

I just saw a tv show--one of those highway patrol things. An 18 year old kid was pulled over. They asked of they could search his car and he said YES??!!! They found a whole bunch of paraphenalia, and the biggest hassle he got was a cop making fun of him because he had spent 37.50 on a bong. They busted him on possession of a CS based on the residue in the screen.

Yea it is. Cigarettes are mainly harmful because of the added 4,000 different chemicals. Hookah tobacco is only molasses and tobacco.

If you've ever seen those experiments where they show you the brown residue that stains your lungs, teeth, and walls left behind by cigarette smoke, well, i've tried the same exact experiment with hookah and there are no staining properties what so ever.

I know people that do but not for tobacco.

I don't think anyone smokes hookah for the tobacco. Mainly, it's for the flavor.

Bongs and hookah pipes are not the same.

That's not really true I smoke American Spirits which have no added chemicals and they are just as bad as any other brand there have been some studies say they are worse.

I can't see how not inhaling tar, arsenic, ammonia, cyanide, butane, formaldehyde, and sulfuric acid can be worse than inhaling it.

Tar is from tobacco not from the chemical, because there are no chemicals take up room there is more tobacco in there cigarettes resulting in more tar intake. Something along those lines.

I like that you responded to a bunch of people in one post, rather than posting multiple times, but everything you said was pretty pointless and has nothing to do with what you were responding to. You didn't understand the point of what one person had said in this thread. The last thing is the kind of funny stupid you see on tv.

Tar is from tobacco? What do you know, you learn something new everyday. But if tar is the main ingredient that causes staining, why when I blow hookah smoke trough a filter, I get no stain? Less tar? Possibly the water the smokes travels trough filters the tar?

Tar is created from the burning of tobacco. Ya might get more tar in a long setting while smoking a hookah than a pack cigarettes. Isn't tobacco in a hookah heated rather than putting a flame to it and burned? So that may make a difference.

I been wanting to buy a hookah.

It's really bad to smoke weed with a hookah actually, the resin can clog up the tube that goes to the mouthpiece reallly bad and they are not easy to clean.

Why did he make fun of him for paying that much for a bong? Thats cheap.

Nah, the world will just end.....

The clock at NORAD will be askew and all the nuclear missiles will fire out of their silos when the clock drift gets to a certain point.

So, no pressure or anything... no pressure.

I always wanted to try it if only because the Caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland enjoyed it so much. Good book. Good movie.
