Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ugh, the helicopters are already circling over head for 4/20, which is a fucking nightmare day in my neighborhood as you can imagine.
Pot-Heads On Parade! Stoner Bros! Deadheads in all directions! Chronic-ally stupid behavior!
Amok! Amok! Amok!
Although, to be honest, it seems like other people have that covered.
Is 4/20 new (ish). I don't remember it when I was in college-- I would say I first heard about 10 years ago when my students could not come and work because it was 4/20 and they were really big stoners.
What even is 420? I mean, why is it code for pot? We definitely didn't have that In My Day.
Around here 4/20 is both the anniversary of the Columbine shooting and pot heads on parade. Recreational pot is legal though not in public spaces. Doesn't stop the faithful though.
Supposedly it started with a group of students who would meet at 4:20 and get high.
I think it's been around for 10 or 15 years.
Around here, it's an excuse for morning DJs to giggle like 12-year-olds and pretend to be hip.
I thought it was some sort of law enforcement code reference. I suppose you could try running the Marathon stoned if you were so inclined.
Around my house, we call this "Real Patriots Day" to distinguish it from 9/11 johnny-come-lately holiday names.
