tried tin foil - realized it was too dangerous

tried a bunch of other house hold items - all failed

tried light bulb - worked but the smoke was insanely harsh

so, I made a bong

I took the light bulb, stabbed the inhale pipe into the lower half of a sprite bottle, filled it up w/ water, and now the top of the sprite bottle is my new mouth peice

It definitley made the smoke less harsh (though it can still be harsh when taking a deep breath), but the problem is, I'm not feeling anythying

I just hold it in for 10-15 seconds while lighting up the rest of it, even after 2 inhales, I feel nothing except maybe a little bit weird but I think that's cause I'm holding my breath

Should I just use more?  Take deeper breaths?
