Do you know how much patience it takes not to respond to this in a manner that is unbecoming this forum?
This is why you smoke the most potent weed you can, so that it's healthier for you. This way you don't have to smoke a 1/2 ounce to get high. You smoke one little hit and exhale.. Weed today is potent enough that you no longer have to hold it for a 1/2 hour to catch a buzz.
You WANT to cough, this is how you remove damaging tars from your lungs. Bhang smokers in India go out of their way to make themselves cough, for this very reason.
This is why tobacco companies went out of their way to develop cigarettes as smooth as possible so that wouldn't make new and young smokers cough.
The longer the shit stays in your lungs, the harder it is to quit because it keeps a reserve of nicotine in your lungs. Mostly in your finer air passageways deep in your lungs.
Marijuana smoke was shown in a study to be too thick to be able to access these finer passageways of the lungs, which makes it healthier than cigarettes, the same study showed that marijuana users over time had larger lung capacities than even their non-smoking counterparts.
