Is a nasty cold going around?

[Coelho]

Toking doesn't seem to affect my immune system- I wonder if that is just more prohib lies? - Granny:hippy:

It happens the same with me... toking or not toking my immune system is as good as always.

I've seen studies claiming that weed lowers your resistance to disease. Don't overdo it, because the more you smoke, the higher the chances are of getting sick.

Well... im NOT doctor, so i may be talking nonsense, but i think what makes smoking people more vulnerable to respiratory diseases is the constant throat irritation caused by the smoke... as an irritated throat would be more vulnerable to the entering of viruses/bacteria.
Maybe thats why me (who only smoke vaporized hash oil) and granny Stormcrow (who only vaporizes her weed) dont feel any difference caused by the weed.

Never before have I seen so many of my buddies complaining about colds at the same time. Apparently, I am not alone. Who here is sick? Rating: 5

If you smoke socially, then you also have the problem of germs on the end of a jay, slobbery viruses all over your pipe, and stoners drooling their nasty pathogens into your bong. If you are sick, you should bring your own pipe and opt out of "the circle," or stay home and get well.

or you could just be a jerk and smoke someone elses weed, out of their bowl, while sick, and enjoy the fruits of your labor when you hear that everyone there got sick.
