Why the fuck should a president, "urban" or not, care about what the Saudi controlled media propaganda station thinks about the classification of cannabis?

I've heard interviews where Cheech said he took mushrooms for comedic inspiration, so I'm gonna go out on a ledge and suppose he smoked weed. It could have been one of those situations like how the Grateful Dead said they didn't drop acid *while performing*… otherwise…

Thank you to everyone who has explained why dingoes eating babies isn't funny. We can all now consider that joke deader than Steve Irwin being stung to death by stingrays.

While some scenes in Cheech & Chong movies have some of the funniest stoner humor of all time that still hold up to this day… it's a double edged sword because they became the poster-boys of "lazy unproductive stoners". Of course not taking into account they were working their asses off doing stand up, writing,…

Not well.

I dunno. I'm getting pretty tired of this show's format. Show a bunch of random, unconnected, purposefully confusing shit and ten episodes into the season you'll have 25% of the random shit kind of explained and sort of connected with the other 75% being unknown, but masked in a veneer of existential themes. Heavy…

This bit never fails to crack me up: When Homer, instead of going into an elaborate scored song and dance, does a very improvised song without a soundtrack: "I like pizza, I like bagels, I like hot dogs with mustard and beer! I'll eat eggplant; I could even eat a baby deer— LalalalaLALA who's that baby deer on the…

I liked the inclusion of the 1967 Dr. Doolittle, and the point that most kids/Disney films from the 50s-70s have aged ridiculously poorly. They have having such slow pacing that no kid who has experienced one iota of modern media could hold their attention to them for even a 90 minute feature unless medicated (IE not…

Every Aussie I've met loves and gushes about "Bart VS Australia" and recites lines from it. It's the very rare stick up the arse Australian that takes offense to it. But all citizens of that country have NO sense of humor about dingoes eating babies or the Crocodile Hunter.

Even as a vegetarian sympathizer, I love the bit: "That's what he's been eating: Slime! And there's enough slime for all of us! We're saved!" [cut to kids feasting on boar]

Did you tie an onion to your belt, because it was the style at the time?

I didn't know that this whole thread was to become a trip down memory lane with esoteric nostalgia for supermarket franchises. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em: Remember when Shop n' Save became Hannaford's? That had to compete with Shaw's? (Is that too Maine a reference?)

The first thing I thought of was the tortured idea to rename the ~crappy area around Alcatraz & San Pablo "NOBE", as is North Oakland Berkeley Emeryville.

The supermarkets in Auckland only had these awful frozen Hawaiian pizzas. Ham and pineapple are not acceptable toppings. It was far easier to find a kidney and brain meat pie than a frozen cheese pizza.

Plus in New Zealand you have whole aisles dedicated to Thai sweet chili sauce, but no salsa or frozen pizzas to speak of.

Yes.

To be clear, I can't stand Safeway either, just for different reasons. But the prices here are cheaper than what you are describing; I encountered that kind of markup when grocery shopping in Hawaii.

The criminally under-reported part of why Whole Foods and their customer base are the fucking worst are the entitled shopping cart waddlers. (See also: Trader Joe's) The type of people who have a full sized cart for three fucking items, go into the store without the slightest notion of what they want, meander…

Let's go child labor! [clap clap clap-clap-clap]

Yes, but what about the barrel of doom?
