4:20

oceanRain [Edit] [Delete] 15 replies 18:26, 20 April '07

OK, it's Hitler's Birthday. But I doubt that's why potheads celebrate Four-Twenty. In fact, I have no idea what the 4-20 significance is. My best guess is, "Hey dude, it's, ah, 4.20, let's spark a blunt."

Fun weed facts: Most the clocks in Pulp Fiction are set to 4.20 (but not when the kid gets the watch, which must be Tarintino's effort to protect children). The football score on Fast Times At Ridgemont High is 42 to 0. Which must have been Spicoli's idea.

  • it is my b'day today

    i always thought it represented something in relation to my massive drug use

    anyway, how can you diss the Grateful Dead on this front, they hardly ever made any music explicitly about weed (cocaine was probably the most sung about substance)? they were just adopted by twatlord weed appreciators the world over.

    but you definitely can't blame them for that

    • Re Grateful Dead

      and their fans wear tie-dye t-shirts, drive VW buses and usually need a shower. You forgot about that.

      • i didn't forget

        see "they were just adopted by twatlord weed appreciators the world over"

        just listen to Workingman's Dead, or American Beauty, or even Aoxomaxoa. all brilliant albums which have nothing to do with weed consumption. Can't blame the band for the listeners
