It's all about preference at the end of the day. I know for a fact, that if i smoke cannabis from a bong, i will get high. Regardless of this study and the supposed thc loss. I will never stop smoking bongs or bubblers because of this study and i emplore others to do the same. How is smoking from paper, or a tobacco leaf or a normal pipe any more healthier then a bong? Sure vapes and eating it but realistically, the majority of people don't do this as often as those who bong it. That being said, i wouldn't go out and buy a really expensive bong, i'd just get a reasonably priced bubbler.

hey....:wtf:

what crap i get more high on bong than any other method, pipes j's are more harsh on my lungs and doesnt get me that high, and i dont cough as much on bong... so to me i think bongs are great and im gonna keep smoking out of them!!

My sentiments exactly.

I'm high so go along with this weird collaboration of ideas:

This study, is like someone telling me that the moon is not really the moon after centuries of calling it the moon. Infact, it is the moom, fuck that, it makes little difference, it's the moon. Maybe someone besides me got that, if not, oh well, there'll be other times.

Bong on!

Reefer Rogue i am not diagreeing about bongs at all because i hit my 2 foot glass on glass beast every day...

but as far as the moon theory, pluto isn't a planet anymore....

BUT BONGS > EVERYTHING ELSE

My moon theory is weak and flawed, i care not though.

Bongs ftw, well i class bubblers as the same, which is what i use rite now.

just like to point out....

i cant remember a link, but i remmeber it being mentioned in relation to this study, that there was a similar study that showed whiel bongs were less effective in terms of THC transfer, they were actually more effective in reducing resperatory irritation. So even though youre not getting as high, its still easier on your lungs.

plus come on people, start putting personal experience into this, smoke a pipe for a month a cuple times a day, adn youll get a smokers cough, at least i know i will. switch to a bong and that cough will dissapear within the weak. When i smoked bong hits alllll the time, my lungs felt really nice, i never got short of breath or anything. But ive noticed now that ive switched to joints mostly, that i need to exercise much mroe to keep my resperatory system healthy.

but man, when exercise is biking through downtown traffic at rush hour, then the extra exercize is very welcome. especially if you exercise with a joint :).

maybe they were just... wrong
i dont doubt NORML but i mean, shit happens, people get stuff wrong all the time.

Been smoking dutches since day one, have no plans on changing.

I guess these studies are flawed or something, i dont know, but i choose to go off of personal experience, bongs get me higher and are not as bad on my lungs as bongs or joints are, when used with potent weed so i only have to take like 3 hits to get wrecked.
