Here Are All the Dumb Weed Clichés That Need to Die

A very helpful list of the lamest things in weed culture, from quoting 'Half Baked' to playing "Wonderwall."

Some truly embarrassing shit has somehow attached itself to weed over the years, and it’s gotta stop.

We’re not saying these things are all inherently bad, per se. What we’re saying is that we’d like to separate them from weed culture forever. So, please, let's allow the following weed clichés die a swift and painful death…
