I know a lot of people who hookah. Some do use marijuana in them but most are the hippy types who use the flavored tobacco. I do not nor have ever smoked anything (including illegal drugs). I never had the urge to actually. I kind of think that the air is hard enough to breath without adding to the problem.....lol
agreed. i too have never smoked. anything. ever.
but it's a fact of life that everyone around me does - and b/c i'm so sensitive to these things (migraines) hookah is the ONLY thing I can be around. my favorite flavors to smell are the berries - usually strawberry and raspberry are nicest, but it depends where you get your tabacco from. though oddly, I love mint anything but mint shisha is just gross
my Husband says the melon doesn't taste good by itself but when you mix it with a berry flavor it's nice. Smells great when you mix them too.
As for what the point is - it's tobacco. What's the point of smoking tobacco? I don't know. But bajillions of people do it, every day, all the time. When you smoke it from a cigarette you also get tar and smoke and carcinogens - but when you smoke it through a hooka - which is a big water pipe - you just get the "buzz" from the tobacco and almost none of the poisons. It's better for your lungs, and it's better for the people around you. As I said, if you have to smoke, it's the way to go.
