    Not just lungs, but brain too. From my understanding the reason you “feel higher” is literally just because you get less oxygen since the room is filled with second hand smoke. Big brain moves lol

      Yeah, thats why I get so stoned in fesh air eating a brownie… bruh…

      I missunderstood what you wrote.

      I never did a hotbox so Idk if it makes you higher. Maybe you are right. But I dont really think this impacts your brain because of less oxygen.

        I can confirm, using the power of science, that THC does not stay in its psychoactive state below a certain temperature. The only way it can is if it binds to something, typically some kind of fat. That’s why an edible can get you high days after it was made.

        Basically, weed might stink a little more than tobacco but not by much. The only reason you smell someone that stinks of weed is the same reason you smell someone that stinks of cigarettes: they sat in the smoke and it stuck to them.

        Having been a stoner for years, I’ve never once had someone comment on the smell. Sure, I suppose it’s possible that literally everyone I know and have potentially interacted with on an olfactory level was just being polite but… I doubt it.
