Totally unscientific poll; I’m always curious who has actually partaken in the use of marijuana . I haven’t but once it’s legal I’d like to see how it affects me.
Marijuana is legal in some states, but, unless I’m mistaken, there’s a federal law that outlaws it. If someone were ever sued for marijuana use, wouldn’t the judge have to go by the federal law, since it has precedence over state law?
Ustedes no entienden la metáfora. Cruzó la frontera y ahora no se sabe si va a “saltar de la sartén al fuego”. Porqué una sartén voladora? Porque los pollos no vuelan! Qué fue primero, el huevo o la gallina? No sabemos porque lo primero fue un “poio qui habra espanol in un sarteno boladora” :D
Hey Stephan! You are way off on this one, MJ is not hallucinogenic!!As in you do not see that sort of crap while smoking weed!You must have been watching the old 1930’s Reefer Madness!!Way to misdirect, confuse, and outright lie about the subject.5 Pinocchios buddy!
People, people (you know who you are)! It’s not that the marijuana made Stephan hallucinate a Spanish-speaking chicken in a levitating frying pan. It just made him think that “Spanish-Speaking-Chicken-In-A-Levitating-Frying-Pan” was a great idea!
Whatever happens there will be a cast iron alibi. On another note What do you call it when someone from the USSR commits suicide with a chicken? Russian poullette.
Every time I drive by the restaurant “Viva Chicken,” I think that it should be “Muerta Chicken” for the sake of accuracy. This is definitely a viva chicken.
Only a couple of nights ago on one of the late night talk shows, one of the guests was one Jenny Slate, who’d just expanded, into a full-length film, a short film she’d made called Marcel the Shell with Shoes On. I believe it opens in theaters tonight. Truth may be stranger than fiction.
Up in smoke….. that’s where my money goes. In my lungs, and sometimes up my nose. When trouble times begin to bother me: I take a toke, and all my cares….. go up in smoke.
Nailed it, Rat! Cartoon-Boy is on the happy weed for sure. He does live in Califluffnia, so I guess it’s legal, but it sure isn’t making him any funnier….
