EW! Smoking is gross!

Something i did a little while ago that completely changed my view on smoking. Actually no not really but still it is quite the gross, try this experiment, ill put pics up later :P
Take some milk or water, like a little bit less than half a liter, and get a straw.
Now take a nice cigarette, no slims or anything, and light it up. Take drags like you normally would, but instead of blowing out into the air, blow out into the straw thats in the glass of liquid. (didnt your mother tell you not to blow bubbles in your milk!)
gross, eh? if it doesnt work with one cig, try it with two, now think of all of the cigs youve smoked. gross!
if someone does this you could put pics up b4 i get them up later?

Im unsure about all this. Ive had many many bongs block up, many bottles caped in tar.
If tar continuously built up in my lungs im sure they would be about full by now.
But their not so im guessing it doesn't stick as much as you'd expect it too.

Yeah, the stuff you blow through the straw is the stuff that didn't stick in you're lungs, so think of it like this... Thats the opposite of how ungross your lungs are from smoking.

Im guessing some sticks. I used to smoke buckets alot, the bit of the bottle that was below the water line and always wet never had much tar sticking to it.
So i think the moisture in the lungs must protect them abit.

Cool, with pics 
Its confuses me abit, either it builds up all the time filling the lungs.
Or it doesn't build up at all.
I carn't see why it would reach a certain point then stop .
Ive seen pics of a heavy smokers lung before, but i don't think there was enough tar inside compared to how much they have smoked.

It's being constantly cleaned but if you're adding tar faster than it can be cleaned out it's going to build up and the cleaning process is going to get slower and slower.

So i think the moisture in the lungs must protect them abit.
The moisture helps, but primarily it's the mucus that keeps you from being dead of asphyxia after smoking a pack.
A lot of the junk gets stuck to mucus, which the lungs use to collect and sweep away all kinds of foreign pollutants.
The problem is that smoking kills the system that removes that mucus. Essentially that leaves you with lots of dirty mucus that no longer moves efficiently out of the lungs.
Since tobacco also stimulates constriction of bronchial tubes, that contributes once again to the buildup of nastyness.
Smoking tobacco WILL devastate your lungs, that is not debatable, it's been proven more times than a man can keep count of.
The question is whether you enjoy smoking enough that you're willing to be subjected to the damage you cause yourself by doing it.

Not everything that comes out of the ciggarette stays in you.
People blow most of that out.

Yeah, you've got to give evolution a hand. If everything you smoked stayed in your lungs, we'd be fucked. Our lungs DO clean themselves out (cough ever?), but don't take them for granted. Tobacco smoke is pretty ruthless on your lungs.
Marijuana smoke is highly debated. I think that the general stoner consensus would agree that it's not radioactive and toxic like tobacco smoke. But smoking any plant matter is going to lead to tar, just not the cancer causing carcinogens that manufactured tobacco ciggarattes have. It's also said that weed's a bronchialdialor.... hard to know because so many tests on marijuana are so incredibly poor. I'd like to see tests on good, street grade kind bud with unbiased results. That would make my day.
On a side note, around the time I started smoking conciously I was told that my lungs have gotten a lot stronger and that my asthma was gone. The doctors all congratulated me for not smoking tobacco and quitting my 'marijuana experimentation'....
.. I'll fuckin smoke to that.

I dont know if there is any truth in what im about to say, i'm just relaying what i heard.
Supposedly there's some kind of procedure that can take OUT the tar from your lungs. ( i heard this from some kid back in highschool who said his mom had it done , truth or no truth?)
Either way, cigarettes are killer on the lungs. I wish this was deterent enough for me, and for everyone else who smokes, to quit but its not. Can you believe that scene in constatine where they show his nasty ass lung and he then immediatly lights up made me crave a cigarette!
OH THE ADDICTION!!
My lungs must hate me.

Smoking is cool, what the fuck are you talking about? so what if it kills you eventually, I have cut down a lot, but I have a hard time quitting. Even pot smoke has cancer causing chemicals in it, oh well life is not fair. Now chewing tobacco is fucking gross, I have done it a few times in the past but never enjoyed it that much, it gave me too much of a nicotine buzz to the point of almost puking, too much nicotine at once.

I read somewhere (erowid) that bong water, if regulated, is technically a toxic substance and has to be disposed as such, its actually illegal to dispose of bong water any other way...
but again that was awhile ago, but i still believe it, laws are crazy.
