Did you know that there are exactly 420 chemicals found in marijuana? Or, did you know that some group of hippy dippy teeny-boppers back in 1971 at some San Rafael High school would meet after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke up some weed near some Louis Pasteur statue? Or maybe you heard that some avid fans of The Grateful Dead would get all stoned at 4:20 each and every day. Eh, maybe that’s all just bullshit! But, who really knows exactly why 420 is so important to stoners anyhow, and, well…who the hell cares, seems like smoking weed at any time of the day or year is a great idea if you ask us.
The smoke-some-weed-on-4/20 phenomenon has totally evolved into a full fledged modern counterculture holiday where people, stoners and non-stoners alike, sit hand in hand and side by side and consume cannabis. Yep, stoners consider April 20th a holiday. Seems likely enough, right? Every little minority group needs their own holiday, so why shouldn’t smoking each other’s weed not be considered a holy day for stoners? Some groups of people bastardize other past holidays and turn them into their own, but stoners are creative. They came up with an seemingly arbitrary date, justified it, linked it to the Dead or clouded it in mystery…and are going to run with it as far as they can.
Didn’t you notice the ‘spare the air’ notices circulating around the internet and the local news telecasts on 4/20, or was it Earth day? Who the fuck knows…but what we do know is that it wasn’t vast amounts of smog wafting through the air this weekend, folks, it was major amounts of pot smoke! Contact high for everybody.

So, what does it say if this just happens to my birthday? Destiny?
420 is ur birthday? well…..ur kickass
This 420 thing just gets bigger and bigger every April 20. I thought it got lots of attention last year, but it was nothing compared to this time. A change is gonna come!
Let’s not forget the way in which 420 is now slang and therefore code for getting high. It is our generations mark on the the pot smoking history books. No longer is smoking trees only a “hippy” thing to do. Partaking of the cannibus has become almost completely socially acceptable. The legal issue has remained a problem, but that is due to the amount of money generated by it remaining on the black market (both by the governments and by the dealers and growers).
