God I hate people who can't control their coughing or after a few hits as well, then they start acting like a friend and doing weird/obnoxious/annoying things. I've had my fair share of smoking people up, and 80% of them I regret. I mean, sure I was bad when I first started, but I wasn't no tweak or anything doing stupid things.
If I smoke by myself it feels like the trip isn't as good, no matter how much I smoke, and depending on how many people I'm with my trip is better, my one buddy we just chill and watch Tim and Eric or Dilbert and laugh at the Inside jokes or smart humor. My other buddy I can have a little fun by saying weird stuff, and I got a few other of my friends that I hate smoking with because I deemed them too touchy feely. I really hate people who are touchy feely in the first place but when they're high they always want to touch. Then my sister just has to waltz in and no matter what she always gets over emotional even when drinking too which pisses me off.
The legal stuff is K2, which is a synthetic cannabinoid, but I've heard that it's dangerous. Don't actually know that much about it.
I never leave it a secret that I'm a newbie, it's pretty much common courtesy.
There's K2 incense which technically you're not supposed to smoke and there was this website I found on 7chan
http://www.legalbuds.com/I might buy from them sometime, not sure though.
I would still consider myself a newbie even though last night was the end of a month and a half long binge, for me every trip is a different experience and I can't exactly tell you the best high I've ever had, they all are different in their own way.
