Hot or cold water in a bong? Which one?

[s2headhunter]

and you sound like one of those people that are afraid to walk across those like grid like looking drains....DONT DRINK TAP WATER IT HAS SUCH A MIMIMUL AMOUNT OF CHEMICALS IN IT THAT YOU COULD PROLLY DRINK A POOL AND IT NOT HARM U BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TAP WATER>...lol man not being a dick just fucking with ya

[chillsmoke]

tap waters bunk
most of the tap water in mt is ok
except for the city of butte... with the giant open pit copper mine, the ground water is polluted so far beyond the potential for human consumption that they have to truck in water for the whole city

a few years ago... the element Mercury was seeping through the streets... yes the liquid metal kind of mercury
was seeping up to the surface of the city streets of butte i got to see it
it was cool but kinda sad that the area is that polluted and there is so many metals in the ground

Ya I would totally go with the colder water. Also i think there is minimal to no THC loss in the water due to the fact that THC is not water soluble.

Well, I live in New York City... so don't try and tell me my tap water is safe. Much less anyone in this country... The government recycles excess poisons and waste through the public water systems... Who's to say some of these aren't getting through. I ain't gonna drink tap water. And I sure as hell can't see Bush turning on the faucet for a drink.

Actually NYC has been tested to have one of the purest tap water supplies in the country. Sure, the salt water surrounding Manhattan isn't clean at all, but the reservoirs are very clean. So drink up.

Whether or not tap water is dangerous, I still like taking a hit through spring water. Maybe it's just a placebo effect, but it tastes better to me somehow.

That aside, if you have perfect freedom and no real time constraints (i.e. not blazing on the DL or outside), put a pot of water on the stove, and leave it at a nice simmer-- not boiling, but hotter than you'd want to drink, anyway. That way, whenever your water starts to cool down, you can just pour it out and add some fresh water!

Bong hits through that kind of water are just... fantastic. The steam feels great in your throat, and the hit just goes down like a lungful of tropical air. I'd imagine hot green tea would be even nicer.

On the other hand, a chilly hit on the rocks can be damn refreshing on a summer night with some friends. You can't lose either way.

I like hitting a bong with ice and fruit2o or some similar "flavored water" type dealy thing...tasty

[welshkillabee]

In the summer I usually use freezing cold with ice in the catcher but then again its great throught hot water as well...

[Reefer Rogue]
