Not having friends did lead to me not being exposed to drugs. Your idea has merit, and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

That one in particular always annoyed me. If the kid's dad was a pot smoker, and the kid learned it by "watching you", then the father would have already known that and never asked such a damn fool question.Romero gives me a twitch:

Actually, the question would have likely been "Have you been in my stash, you little shit?"
