The origins of “420” as a euphemism for weed began with a couple of high school kids in San Rafael, California who used to toke up every day at 4:20 by a wall just outside the school (thanks for clearing that up, Huffington Post!).
Nowadays, April 20th has become a day for advocates of marijuana legalization to make their case anew amidst a cloud of thick, skunky smoke, using circular arguments and empassioned free-association that always comes back to the movie Baraka.
Buzz Feed has collected some pics of the most notable collection of celebrity stoners, including those pictured below, Paris Hilton, Charlize Theron, and a very stoned group including Woody Harrelson and Owen Wilson. We also offer you a couple of shots of Damien Crosse getting high and a video of Diesel Washington (who just wrote this little love letter to the ganja on his blog) or actually, it’s a video of his hand holding a dancing bag of bud in front of a television playing a pro-pot musical number from The Family Guy.

Go bitch somewhere else. You could really stand to smoke a joint and stop being an ass, and instead, just go eat one somewhere. There must be someone out there for a sad, ignorant, angry douchebag like yourself. First, get a life, then you can get high on it, or some of the many pills you probably ingest just to get yourself through another hard day of being you.. I’ll stick with my doctor prescribed, state government licensed Cannabis. Have a blessed and Happy 420.
I am no saint, but I have never understood the need for weed. Whenever I’ve tried it or any drug for that matter, it’s always been me experimenting to find out why is everyone else doing it. Maybe when you’ve waited until you’re in your 30’s like I have to try any kind of substance, it doesn’t have much of an effect on you. All marijuana has even done for me is give me the munchies. So unless you have an illness (and/or a treatment) that kills your appetite, I have to ask:
What the fuck is your problem?
It doesn’t make me mellow like so many people claim. I guess because I’ve created enough bliss in my life that I don’t need a drug to help make me mellow. Life is much more beautiful when you do it yourself. Now I’m sure Grand Canyon-assed Popper Paul here at The Sword is one of those that can’t understand a word that I’m saying right now. It’s too much like reality that your head shouldn’t feel up in the clouds in order to grasp.
