This ones for the non-believers!

Oh absolutely, it solely depends on the type of cannabis being smoked.

But it also depends on the persons personality and their psychological state before and after smoking.

I've had many different highs before.

From wigged-out-paranoid to couch-stuck-halucinating.

well... i think your explanation is basically correct, or at least make sense for me. anyway, i found a small incorrect statement:

in truth, the THC is insoluble in water. Thats why we need to mix it with fats or oils when cooking with cannabis.
but it dont invalidates your arguments, because, as THC is almost insoluble in water, the body needs a LOT of water to "wash" it, and thats the right reason why we get cotton mouth.
Anyway, this last part remains correct:

Ooops I made a huge typo there. Thanks for correcting that.

Yes, THC is NOT water-soluble.

Here is the deal, THC is not water-soluble. It is so non-water-soluble that it can cause your kidneys to absorb more water than your body can supply during certain gas exchanges to your bloodstream. This would mean that THC is also an extreme diuretic. Hence why we get cotton mouth.

There...Corrected. :p

Again, thanks Coelho.

fuck dxm, that was the absolute worst thing ive ever done, it scares me to even think about that experience

Good to know i can get high either way, by drinking a lot of water or by not drinking a lot of water.

I didn't know drinking water made you higher. I just know I get damn thirsty when I smoke. I like SmartWater.

Oh, and for a hangover, B-complex vitamins and SmartWater. And potassium (potatoes, bananas).

Most studies show that high intake (five or more joints per week) impairs short-term memory, but moderate intake (less than five joints per week) does not impair memory.

Moderation in all things... including moderation.

Marijuana is both a stimulant and a depressant depends on the strain.

Also there is water in your lungs, everyone has to have some because oxygen can't be diffusedd into the bloodstream directly from the air it has to be disolved in water in high amounts. This water is a layer all throughout the aveoli.

We also have water in every cell of your body so if not the first reason then this is the reason to say we have water in our lungs
