HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!

OMG!

Okay so it took me two readings to get it but LOL!

I'm amazed the senate managed to vote without breaking out laughing

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

No kidding!

Just goes to show you that God/Karma/Fate has a sense of humor. ;)

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

Hahahah! I learned that God has a sensahumor a looong time ago :P

But still, that's wicked funny.

Actually though, It's kinda scary. I did a quick google search and there's like 5 different companies making pot-flavored candy and selling it to kids :/

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

I've heard of this, having had a job at a gas station last year and kids asking me if we carried it.

BTW: Has anyone here attempted to drink bong water before (many years ago, uh, in college)? Why would candy tasting like pot sell at all?

Uh, wth?!

"State Representative Judy Manning said she was shocked to receive death threats over the bill to ban the candy. 'Some people think their rights are their rights,' she said."

Pot suckers!

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

Yeah, I liked Manning's idiotic quote... almost as funny as the other senator's name. ;)

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

Yeah, although a lot sadder/more infuriating/whatever combination... :D:mad::(:mad::(:D

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

Senator "Stoner" pushed a bill against naming stuff with drug-like names??

I think you need to explain this in more detail for the less English-savvy forum participants. Not everybody is on track with current, let alone historical American slang.

I do admit I'm a bit baffled by that Manning woman's remark: "Some people think their rights are their rights". Well... yeah, what else? I wonder what she had been smoking/snorting/shooting when she let that doozie rip.

Yes, I know she'd received death threats, but come on: Email death threats? Ooohhh, I'm so scared! I have a CD full of those that I keep for entertainment on slow tv nights.

Im glad i grew up in a time where everyone could freely enjoy marijuana flavored candy.

LOL sure i think we all have enjoyed a good drink of bong water every now and then to take the edge off. I suppose they will outlaw that next?!

Explaining a joke dilutes its value.

It's a given that a joke on the internet isn't going to be immediately grasped by every reader. I am absolutely NOT going to break one down for every culture on the planet, Karel, sorry.

*sigh*

It is definitely No Fun Wednesday. : /

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

Cheer up! Here ... have some yummy bong water (and a big bag of Doritoes). :p

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

make that TWO bags and you have a deal.

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

I'd give you one of the burgers I cooked up, but I ate them all. Sorry. :p

Hey, we should try out a new slogan:

Internet Tablet Talk, where the fun lasts for about 30 seconds and then the stinkers arrive!

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

I am beginning to think the yucks are all in my head.

Hmm. I probably just opened myself up to armchair internet psychoanalysis... :o :D

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

I don't think it tastes all that good.

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

And now you can't sell flavoured bong water? :(

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

LOL!! Mr. Stoner wants to ban Potsicles? Maybe he's over-compensating for something? :P

Ok - No lie - I was delivered by a Dr. Slaughter (it's on my birth certificate). What was my mother thinking? Would you want a man named Slaughter to deliver your baby?

Re: Marijuana flavored candy banned...
 

Don't know the current law, but for many years in the UK you were allowed to sell marijuana seeds as it was just the leaves that were illegal.

During that time, there was a special BBC news report where they found this mail order company selling marijuana seeds in a package with sun lamps, soil etc etc, pretty much everything you needed to grow your own weed. The head of the company insisted throughout an interview that the seeds were being sold as fishbait, with the gardening equipment just an unrelated bonus item.

If only we could get some Dank air freshener.
