April 20, 200620 yr Soo how was everyones day? why is this a national day to smoke i never found out.... is it because it is Hitlers Bd i am being serious about this post
April 20, 200620 yr Accepted originSnopes.com, High Times magazine, The Marijuana-Logues, and The Straight Dope claim that in the early 1970s, a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California used to meet every day after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke marijuana at the water tower. One piece of evidence supporting an origin of the term from the time 4:20 is the fact that the number is always said "four twenty". This theory is also the most cited, and the most widely-accepted. Other plausible suggested originsMarijuana grew wild on or near Highway 420 in Ontario in the 1960s. Whether or not this is true, Highway 420 is the location for an annual legalization protest every April 20th. At some American junior or senior high schools, "after-school detention" ends at 4:20. Thus 4:20 signifies the time when the detainees are finally free to smoke after the school day. The term could have possibly come from H. P. Lovecraft's Within The Walls of Eryx which contains the line "My route must have been far from straight, for it seemed hours before I was free of the mirage-plant's pervasive influence... When I did get wholly clear I looked at my watch and was astonished to find that the time was only 4:20". An ounce of marijuana going for $300, sold gram by gram (@ $15), equals $420.

April 21, 200620 yr What a stupid "holiday". Too bad it isn't one. That's why I put "holiday" in quotes as if to mock it, because some morons consider it one.
April 21, 200620 yr Why do people need a reason to smoke weed besides that it makes them feel good. I don't see the reason to get all "Happy 4/20" other than maybe you're of the persuasion who thinks that saying that or participating in that makes you cooler. Dude, I know it's 4/20, time to get highhhhhhhhhhhh! But, it's really not much difference between that and St. Paddy's day, which pretends to celebrate Irish heritage, but really except for the parades, I don't see much else going on except Irish and non-Irish alike drinking. You can't really hate one and not the other. But, I'm ambivalent about both, really. I drink when I feel like drinking and I'll smoke when I feel like smoking. There's no reason to try and billboard it to others.
April 22, 200620 yr I hate the term "weed" ... call it pot It's just preference. Most people around here call it both.
