Good grief Im getting old.... What is "vape it" mean?

I'm glad someone asked this question. Haven't partook in a long time but damn do I miss it! Also been thinking if I'm going to have to give up wine....

I've been told by people that consider themselves experts that not all doobies give you the munchies.

Will have to investigate further.

Vaping is using a vaporizer. It delivers the THC without the smoke or smell. With a good portable vaporizer like an "iolite" you could "smoke" 3' from someone & they're never know.

You should not smoke it unless you can properly spell it:)

LOL!

You haven't had an orgasm until you've had an orgasm while lit!

Works wonders for my sex life :D

Edit:

Didn't realize that this was in the mans room. Sex is wonderful all around. I'm just sayin...

Are these vaporizers specially designed for this activity or can I dig out out the farm animal that streamed through it nostrils I used for my kids when they were little? Does it take the smell away?

Geez! I need to do some research.

They are designed for this particular purpose.

And it doesn't "take the smell away" as much as it doesn't create the smell because there is no combustion.

So glad I found this topic! I've enjoyed "the devils lettuce" for 10+ years now and wasn't accepting that I needed to give it up for surgery. As munches don't usually affect me, I was just under the illusion that smoke slows the healing process down. I've thought about cooking more with it, but to be honest I haven't had enough strength to make butter or anything else for that matter, and sadly didn't think of it before surgery...

i smoked a small bowl about a week and a half after surgery, felt fine, continued about every other day, then one day last week I busted out my beloved bong And that TORE my throat up! Granted I just had surgery jan 23, I thought I had healed a little more than that! But since then I've not held back at all with my pipe, I didn't even think to use a vapor!! Thanks for the suggestions!

You do not need to give up wine. Just be aware of the calories and the effect even 1 glass will have on you if you think you can still be the DD. also wait until you allowed to take it according to your doctor. Most doctors say to wait 3 months post op.

So, I have a small vaperizor that my baby got a while back for a temporary breathing treatment. Could I use tht to vape it? How do I do it?

No, one can't use that type of vaporizer for vaping weed. It's a totally different appliance. Google marijunana vaporizer. Well known brands are Volcano, Silver Surfer, Da Buddha, Iolite, Pax, Da Vinci. There are dozens of others. Some require electricity, and these are your bigger in-home models. Some are battery operated, and these are your smaller portable models.

All of them are expensive compared to just smoking, but it's worth the investment to save yourself from the carcinogens.
