Fumes or smoke from incinerated THC trichomes. Urban Dictionary

The most efficient way to smoke weed. Fully releases all of the THC from the weed, saving your lungs from the abuse of J's, spliffs, and blunts. You will exhale a white, ODORLESS vapor, making toking up at home and in a standard college dorm room much less risky. Gets you more high off less weed, pays for itself. Urban Dictionary

A device used to heat up marijuana buds (around 390-something degrees F) to the point where the material (including the THC, Cbd/cbn, etc.) is a vapor form. Usually, the vapor is held in longer than smoke, somewhere between 15-30 seconds. Also, the vapor is drawn slower than smoke is inhaled, for about the same time as it is held in the lungs. There are various types of vaporizers, the most efficient being the heat convection types, which pass heat through the material rather than heat it up. Dome vaporizers, which usually consist of a brass bowl and a plastic or glass dome, and a suction tube, are considered by different studies to be less efficient and possibly harmful. Unfortunately, the most efficient vaporizers tend to be the most expensive. Urban Dictionary

Situation where someone treats someone one way, usually negatively, and then at a later point in time regrets what was done to that other person in the past or begins to treat the same person in a more respectful manner. Identified in the 1988 Biz Markie song "Vapors." Urban Dictionary

The act of inhaling and exhaling from an electronic cigarette. A better definition of vaporing through an electronic cigarette rather than "smoking". It would not make any sense if someone said they were smoking an electronic cigarette as they generate water vapor. Urban Dictionary

A polite 19th century term women used meaning either 1) Being emotionally overcome or 2) Having gas Urban Dictionary

An ailment causing real or imagined nausea, fainting, or dizziness on the part of Victorian women or women of similar delicate sensitivity. The cause is something seen or heard which so offends their modesty, there is no response they are capable of uttering. Typically a matter of sexual or cultural taboo is being violated, such as the mention of a sexual or excretory organ in conversation. Urban Dictionary

The most efficient way of consuming substances found in herbs by avoiding combustion and the various health risks that are accustomed to smoke. Cannabis vaporized is proven to deliver most of the active ingredients found in the plant (cannabinoids, flavinoids, etc) while avoiding the majority of tar, carcinogens and unwanted chemicals. The vaporizer does this by heating the herbal blend up with heat by using hot air (convection), a safe metal heating plate (conduction), or sometimes both. The extracted cannabinoids turn into a mist (or vapor), and is less irritating to the lungs, therefore reducing coughing and allowing you to inhale larger hits. Since THC can be destroyed by combustion, the total % of THC inhaled per hit is much more than smoking, therefore reducing the amount of herb used for desired effect; in the long run saving you money. By using heat right under the threshold of combustion, many chemicals found in smoke is not present in vapor. The temperatures used are from 314.6 F - 400+ F. When a vaporizer is first used, it tends to become the preferred method consumption, producing a positive, very cerebral head high. Many of the couch lock effects from smoking will be left behind, leaving you to want to get up and do something like socialize or get tasks done, instead of being a lazy couch potato. The biggest change people notice from making the switch to vaping is a HUGE reduction in phelgm, and the dreaded Smokers Cough goes away. Urban Dictionary

Taking a newfangled and opportunistic liking to someone only after that person became successful. The subject of Biz Markie's song, "Vapors." Urban Dictionary

A Vaporizer is a tool that allows you to smoke Marijuana without burning any plant matter, which allows for just the active ingredients in Marijuana (THC) to be released into a chamber which is then inhaled. Urban Dictionary
