What is the point of combustion of marijuana?

There isn't, really. Smoking just ruins your lungs and your body. It shortens your life span, and it is just a bad idea. It can hurt others around you, and it hurts you. It wastes money, and it does nothing good for you, there, serving no purpose. Some people believe it is cool, or makes you look popular, to smoke. But, how I see it, it just makes you look stupid. If someone wants to trick you into smoking, and says, "Come on, do it, it's fun!" And just say, "Well, no, I'm not ruining my body like that. And, you know what's not gonna be fun? When you're dead and I still have a life." That's all you need to say, whether you loose your friends, or if you keep them, say no to smoking- because there is no point.
