I would refer your research to Sir Dr. Nate Dogg who said "Hay hay hay hay, smoke weed everyday" FACT.
Really smoking is fun.... Vaping is good too. The high is slightly different (depending on temps you vape at), especially if you only do vape, then smoke a bong load (and vice versa) Why do people smoke cigarettes? Cause ehh fuck it. Its way easier to smoke, much much quicker, and for a lot who grew up before vaporizers got so huge a few years ago there is a certain ritual to it...
