****The Official Friday Silliness Thread****
420 ^ | April 20, 2007

420

Claim:   The term '420' entered drug parlance as a term signifying the time to light up a joint.

Status:   True.  



Origins:   Odd terms sneak into our language every now and then, and this is one of the oddest. Everyone who considers himself in the know about the drug subculture has heard that '420' has something to do with illegal drug use, but when you press them, they never seem to know why, or even what the term supposedly signifies.





I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is an herb and a flower. God put it here. If He put it here and He wants it to grow, what gives the government the right to say that God is wrong?

~ Willie Nelson

"Because I'm a man, I must hold the television remote control in my hand while I watch TV. If the thing has been misplaced, I may miss a whole show looking for it, though one time I was able to survive by holding a calculator instead (applies to engineers only)

An engineer would spend the whole show modifying the calculator to be a universal remote and would have to ask the wife what happened.

A man would tell his wife to find the remote and bring it to him right after she brought him a sammich and a beer.
