Geordie Ahmed Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Maybe it wouldn't hurt if he spent less time smoking hookah's (equivalent to about 200 fags in a session!) "Hookah" it's a shisha and that 200 fag thing is a complete myth; the smoke gets filtered through water so, while it's not exactly good for you, it's nowhere near the equivalent of 200 cigarettes in one session. hookah and sheesha are the same thing, just depends where in the world you're from Grew up in the middle-east and no-one calls it hookah man. Not even Indian people (they came up with the word), everyone just says shisha. They call it hookah in the subcontinent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 The device is called a shisha pipe or hookah (huqqah, hukka, or huqqa). The tobacco is shisha. Anyway, committed sacrilege by dropping him from my fantasy team. Actually dropped he and Cabaye in favor of HBA and Hazard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Nah. I must have imagined my grandparents and relatives calling it hookah (huqqah) then . . . . Meh, fair enough. Every Pakistani and Indian person I know calls it shisha, all my Arab friends call it shisha, and everyone in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria (the places I've lived in) call it shisha. In my experience it's only the Americanized Arabs (the ones who grew up in the States) who say "hookah" and they get ridiculed in much the same way as an American would calling football "soccer"... Pedantry aside, I put milk in my...hookah (just sounds wrong man ) makes for a thicker and smoother smoke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
