Allia22 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I'd be hungry, smoke a bowl and completely forget about my hunger for hours. Strangest thing, but you can probably get my answer out of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, ignore the people who say this thread is "dumb." They obviously weren't burdened with an overabundance of braincells. Third, I'll get back to you when I find out! I just ordered my hookah, pretty much in piecemeal, so I'm still waiting on the stem and whatnot. I can't wait to smoke it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, it doesn't even make the person who asked it dumb. Maybe when you get your hookah you can relax for a fricken second and rethink things before you go and insult people.

freepain Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Pends what i eat since i usually eat some crappy sandwich or something i would probably take the hookah i frequently dont eat dinner so its no biggy to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PersianPride Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Well if anyone has ever talked to an insecure teenage girl you would know that tobacco is an appetite suppressant. So to miss one meal and smoke is no big deal really. I think the exert from the book sort of illustrates more the fact that in other cultures having a smoke at a cafe is like going to the pub for a drink. Its a sanctuary for men to be men hence why the Indians mentioned probably made the reference to the sacrifice.Oh and to the first person that responded..don't be a dick dude.

camelflage Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 last night i came home and it was just starting to get dark, but it was so nice out i decided to skip eating and make a hookah so i could sit out on the balcony before it got completely dark. then i just forgot to eat later.

I found that instead of suppressing my appetite, smoking hookah stoked it, unlike cigarettes. I'm just glad I don't have to choose. As the old saying goes (modified to suit our purposes here), eat, drink [smoke] and be merry, for tomorrow we may die... How's that for uplifting?
