COMMENT OF THE DAY: Sex and Weed? Isn’t that a Nashville Pussy song?

Toronto’s own body-parts murder has forced the city to take a closer look at rub-and-tugs, erm, body rub parlours, after the victim was revealed to have been an ex-body rubber.  (Yes, that’s actually the term used by the CBC.)  Did you know, for instance, that body-rub parlours pay upwards of 11-grand for a licence and almost an equal amount in annual renewal fees—but that no more than 25 are allowed to operate in the city at one time?  That’s a whole lotta do-re-mi!  Alas, this CBC commentor has come up with a way to bring even more licence fees into the city’s coffers:

Now, I can’t say for sure, but I’m under the impression that the decision to go to a rub-and-tug is often made after excessive consumption of alcohol, not marijuana.  On the other hand, a pot parlour combined with a pizza parlour sure smells like success to me!

This week’s sign that the Weedocalypse is upon us: Mitt Romney’s 420 times higher!

Posted by gruesomegreg on

According to an Associated Press article on investment income (seen here on Fox News), Mitt Romney is 420 times higher than the average U.S. household.  I guess he can afford the finest herbs what with all that investment income—on which he pays a sweet low tax rate of 15 per cent.

 

Erm, it’s his income that’s 420 times higher, or so they say.  But the conspiracy enlightened theorists will tell you it’s a sign that marijuana will be legalized under his administration.  Vote Romney 2012!

The age-old question: does killer weed kill more than booze or ciggies?  Most CBC.ca readers say it’s the least dangerous of the Big Three.  In fact, this guy puts it waaay, waaay down there on the list:

 

Out of curiosity, what’s number 34,344 on that list?

COMMENT OF THE DAY: The debating equivalent of bringing a joint to a gun fight…

From: http://edmonton.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20111123/polygamy-law-bountiful-111123/20111123/?hub=EdmontonHome

The Supreme Court of British Columbia today struck down a challenge to a national polygamy law dating back over a century.  So, now that we’ve confirmed that it’s illegal, will this lead to a crackdown on the Mormon communities in Western Canada?

Not so fast, say several CTV commentors, who use the ideal of “live and let live” to camouflage their attraction to 13-year-old girls.  Then there’s this guy, whose ranting, illogical argument jumps back and forth between letting consenting adults marry and not forcing crazy religious beliefs on him.  It all makes sense when you read the last two sentences, however.

 

Dude, bringing up marijuana in a discussion about polygamy is like bringing a joint to a gun fight.  In the end, you don’t solve anything, and you’re bound to get shot—or in this case mocked and laughed at.  Pass the dutchie from the left hand side, rastaman, I mean mon.  Yeah, we be jammin’…

A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas – best xmas movie ever!

Posted by gruesomegreg on

Well, it’s way too early to be thinking of Christmas, even if the temperatures have dropped to the single digits, but I guess they didn’t wanna ruin the holidays by putting this one out on Christmas Day.  This is probably the silliest, most offensively amazing Harold and Kumar film yet, featuring cameos from the likes of Patton Oswalt,  Danny Trejo, Bobby Lee, RZA and Neil Patrick Harris reprising his role as a crack-smoking mack daddy.  (Yes, he got shot in the last movie.  He came back to life, haha.)  The film also introduces Amir Blumenfeld as Kumar’s dorky new neighbour along with Tom Lennon as Harold’s effeminate Wall Street buddy–and we can’t forget Baby Ava, the young daughter of Lennon’s character, who takes more drugs in the film than Charlie Sheen has for breakfast.

It seems that a few years have passed since our heroes’ last adventure, and they’ve gone their separate ways.  Harold now works on Wall Street, married his dream girl, and owns a house in the suburbs, whereas Kumar apparently failed a drug test, lost his job, got dumped by his girlfriend, and lives in the same old apartment.  But when a Christmas present (a massive doob) is delivered to Harold at his old address, the two friends get together for a wild and wacky adventure that includes beer pong, Claymation, and dancing in a Christmas musical on Broadway starring Neil Patrick Harris.

Harris is hilarious as himself again, and they even bring in his husband, David Burtka, in a scene where they kiss for the cameras, then behind closed doors reveal that the gay thing is only an act.  As it turns out, Burtka is really his drug dealer, heh heh.

And yes, there’s a whole lotta smokin’ going on.  Even Santa Claus tokes up on a candy-cane-striped bong in the closing sequence.  Don’t take your kids to this movie, or you’ll have a lotta explaining to do…

Do take your drug dealer, and bring a massive doob.  This shit’s gonna be amazing when you’re stoned!  (And then you can eat flavoured popcorn afterwards…)

For all of you who always wanted to know how to smoke marijuana safely, but were afraid to ask…

If you don’t subscribe to the Canadian Journal of Public Health, you might wanna check the newsstands for the September/October issue, or maybe ask about it at your doctor’s office.  (As long as you have a family doctor, that is.)  As revealed today on Canada.com, the upcoming issue of CJPH features some brand new guidelines for the safe consumption of marijuana, including:

- Some groups — including pregnant women, middle-aged and elderly individuals with cardiovascular issues and those with a family history of psychosis — should abstain from use completely;

- Use of marijuana be delayed until late adolescence (16 years of age) or adulthood to quell the ill effects of pot use on the developing brain;

- Frequent use, which is described as daily or near-daily use, be avoided;

- Full avoidance should be exercised by those with difficulties controlling their level of use;

- To best reduce respiratory and cancer risks, marijuana should not be mixed with tobacco and the use of a vaporizer would be more ideal than the use of more common smoking mechanisms, such as joints and pipes;

- Marijuana users should wait at least three to four hours after use — or longer if effects are still felt — before driving a vehicle.

It remains to be seen whether these recommendations will see vaporizer sales soar skyward—not to mention how many “pot addicts” will heed the third and fourth suggestions. ;)
