So How Will YOU celebrate 4-20?

[Mac Danny]

well, it's that5 time of year again. Time for people to relax in a park, listen to a jam band and forget what they were talking about. It's 4-20!!

What is the craziest, strangest, stupidest thing you've done while smoking the ganja?

Once I held a 4 hour conversation about the Crisis on Infinite Earths with a friend while High. We maybe said 10 sentences.

So today, go out an rent "Up in smoke" "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle" and "Half Baked." Listen to some Bob Marley, Spark up a fatty and celebrate being mellow.

Happy 4-20 man!

[Typo Lad]

Oh. Is that what 4-20 is about? I thought it had to do with Hitler's Birthday.

Indians should use this day to celebrate April Fool's Day.


The Indian Penal Code

Section 420. Cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property

Whoever cheats and thereby dishonestly induces the person deceived any property to any person, or to make, alter or destroy the whole or any part of a valuable security, or anything which is signed or sealed, and which is capable of being converted into a valuable security, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to seven years, and shall also be liable to fine.

from wiki:

It is widely accepted that in 1971, a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California, calling themselves "The Waldos", used to meet every day after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke marijuana at the Louis Pasteur statue. [2] [3] The term became part of their group's salute, "420 Louis,"[4] and it eventually caught on more widely. Many cannabis users continue to observe 4:20 as a time to smoke communally. By extension April 20 ("4/20" in U.S. dating shorthand) has evolved into a counterculture holiday, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis.[5] [6]

There are also many apocryphal urban legends attempting to explain the origin of the term. Two of the most common of these are that 420 refers to the number of active ingredients in cannabis, or that it is police dispatch code for cannabis.[7] In actual fact there are around 315 active chemicals in cannabis, varying depending on the exact plant used, and 420 has never been verified as the police dispatch code for anything in any locale.

You know.. Not EVERYTHING is about Hitler...

It's about the freedom to enjoy the wonders of nature and smoke them.

I was joking.

Sheesh.

This is why most good comics are Jewish.

Aside from work (where I am now), I'm just going to chill with some Chinese food, a nice fat nug in my pipe, and some mindless entertainment DVDs.

4-20 Question: Besides the obvious stoner movies (Up in Smoke, Half Baked, etc.), what other films do you like to watch while baked?

Strange Days or LOTR Trilogy.

Hitler was a pothead.

[Gene M.]

I'll probably just narc some people out to the cops...

[Gary_B]

Hitler was a pothead.

I've never heard that but he was an IV amphetamine addict.

[Cei-U!]

Every day is 4/20 as long as the supply lasts.

Cei-U!
I summon the voice of experience!

[hoffmandu]

I have to work from 8am to 11pm.............NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *Vader impersonation



Though, after, I'll be sparkin' and playing Ps2 'til my eyes bleed.

I didn't know 4/20 was supposed to be special

I'll be driving to San Francisco.

I'm not sure if appropriate celebration of this day is appropriate to mix with that, but we'll see

People who engage in such illegal activities have watched

Vampire Wars, which is about vampires. In space.

Soon certain... acquaintances of mine plan to attempt Jesus Christ, Vampire Hunter.


Of course there's always the Big Lebowski.

Its just another day...

I don't smoke "the ganja". I figure that we libertarians tendto look enough like stoners as it is.

I've never managed to shake that "slightly stoned" look...

Of course there's always the Big Lebowski.

Big Lebowski is definetly gold.

Batman Begins is fantastic - so many changes in plot (he's training, taking on the mob and THEN the supervillains come in) and also plenty of subplots (one moment your right into batman, then you get so into Bruce Wayne looking for love and running the business that you're almost sad when Batman comes back in), and then there's the gold of Scarecrows drug making people hallucinate.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is good as well, even on re-watch. Trying to keep up with the plot would make you think it'd be a bad stoner film, but it sucks you in.

Sin City is fun on a visual sense, and if you're high enough you don't care about how silly it all is.

Everyone has to do 2001: A Space Odyssey at least once (lying down in a cinema if you can - the intermission is there for you too smoke and move to the front of the cinema).

Psych-Out is awesome. A 60's film all about Hippies and the man. It centres around Jack Nicholson and his band Mumblin' Jack, who are the hip thing in Frisco to take acid too.
They spend their days doing hippie stuff, and getting hippy chicks, and also help people out who have gone to far.
The plot is a girl comes looking for her brother, Bruce Dern, who has dissapeared after joning the hippie scene, and Jack and the boys help her look for him, whilst providing a tour of a 60's wonderland that never existed.
It's all in how it's done.

Evil Dead 2. Do I have to explain why?

Bottle Rocket. Rushmore. Royal Tenenbaums. The Life Aquatic.
If it's got Wes Andersons name on it, you've gotta see it high at least once.
If it's for the first time, you're in for a treat.
If re-watching, notice how much new shit you pick up about what the characters are REALLY all about.

I once had a great time watching The West Wing high off my head. Sopranoes as well - although some scenes do feel like they've gone forever, and some scenes get way too intense.

Santa Claus Conquers The Martians. The title should be all the convincing you need.

If you've never seen Catch-22, it'd be quite fun high - you'd have to be able to concentrate though.
Graduate could work as well - as long as you like Simon and Garfunkel.

Both The Beatles movies, 'A Hard Days Night' and 'Help!', with 'Help!' definetly getting the preference.

Although they are a bit slow paced for some any movie produced by Roger Corman or Hammer Studios can do the trick, as well as some of Russ Meyer's films.

If you want a great TV show that many outside of the UK are unaware of* that no stoner can do without is The Mighty Boosh. As the theme music says 'Prepare your mind for a journey through time and space'.
I prefer the first season where the two mains are zoo keepers myself, but your mileage may vary.
You Tube has them up if you can't them anywhere else, and here's some links to my favourite episodes when high (and that I use to get new people into it).
Season 1: Arctic (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeEQVJ50GZs) and Bollo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNpZhZeXfAk).
(here's a little taste (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ycu-pQYmUQQ&mode=related&search=) from arctic if you're not ready to commit to a full episode on my say.
As for Season 2, I'm not as big a fan, but it's definetly got some gold for a stoner, the best two episodes in my mind are: The Priest And The Beast (ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpXq4aGp_aE&mode=related&search=) where you get the story of a 70's jam duet searching for a new sound, and The Nightmare of Milky Joe (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYlJ_dceJYs&mode=related&search=) which is just brilliant.
(The season one episodes are in there as one part, but the season 2 ones are broken up).
If it's not your thing than you don't deserve the weed you smoke.
(non-stoners might enjoy as well, though not as much).

Anyway, that's off the top off my head. I like to mix up films that were made for stoners with some that aren't, variety is the spice of life.

College parties are fun on 4-20. Especially when you don't go to college, so you're effectively untouchable.

"You can't be here!"

"Why not?"

"What's your student ID number?!"

"7...45...786...1...9...9...9...9...62............. ..................................9. Later!"
