    Also, I have to say that I'm impressed by the number of "No, never have" votes from this board.  Good for you guys!

    A little bit for me too.  @SilverGlitter05, do you smoke flavored tobacco in it?  I've heard of hookah lounge places where it's like a novelty where your group sits around and smokes flavored tobacco and listens to a band or whatever, but I guess that's just not really my thing.  I also had some friends in college that had a hookah in their frat room that they sometimes used for smoking weed.

    I was mostly a social smoker in college, except for one summer where I smoked a little more heavily than that. I LOVED it too. I only miss it now when I am at a bar drinking beer, and here in PA, you can't smoke in bars anymore anyway, so it's a moot point.

    The health network I work for now screens all applicants for nicotine use and will not hire those people who test positive. Those of us who were hired before that was instituted are grandfathered in, but we are encouraged to take advantage of cessation programs. Also, all of our campuses (we have six hospitals and many, many other outpatient locations and physician practices) are smoke-free.

    We do flavored tobacco, my favorite is rose. Yes, I got into the trend in college (never did weed in it) but I have a bunch of hippie friends and then I bought one once I left college. We used to go to hookah bars and listen to music, movie nights, and even study. Now it's just a social thing and it's fun to expose people to it who've never smoked one.

    @Nova726 It did at first for me too but when you have a bunch of friends socializing listening to good music it's the best (kind of like going to the bar and having beers)
