Yes, we get it, okay? It’s 420. WE KNOW

I’m going to say this, and I’m only going to say this once. And for the record, I’m not one of those people who has never done weed, so I’m not speaking from inexperience here.

No one cares if you do weed. You are not funnier or more clever for it. It’s just weed.

Weed is relatively harmless, and I’ll even go so far as to say it’s fun in the right circumstances. That being said, smoking weed doesn’t make you particularly bright or funny. Weed will make you crawl around on the floor and eat chocolate pudding mixed with marshmallow fluff, but plants really can only do so much. Especially when they’re on fucking fire.

There are a lot of great uses for marijuana, especially when it comes to chemo patients dealing with nausea. Focus on that part. Not on how weed makes you think cat videos are funny.
