You all think this is funny, but lots of people die from the devil's weed. What about my friend who shared a dirty marihuana needle and caught teh schizophrenia? Not so funny now, eh? And there's the guy who got stoned and masturbated continuously night and day without stopping until he died of starvation because he forgot to eat or sleep. Then there was the straight A student who took her first and only puff of drugs and jumped off the Empire State Building because she thought she could fly. But she plunged to her death, landing on Art Linkletter's SUV in the streets below. And what about the pot pushers trying to hook your children so they can turn them into their zombie slave army of slack jawed drug addicts? Gangs of Negroes and illegal aliens drive around at night with their high beams on. If you make the mistake of flashing your high beams at them they follow you home, where they force you and your children to smoke the evil reefer until you get so stoned that you accidentally put your babby in the oven because you think it is a turkey.

WHY DO YOU HATE THE CHILDREN????

Bullshitted?

You could argue that the decline of private market-based enterprise, from a freedom-stimulating spur to the general welfare to a hyper-conformist mechanism of wealth transfer from the poor to the rich, was due to the invention of the limited-liability entity.

Seriously, that usage is back? Jeesuz, given enough time, I may be current in slang again.

Yer right, but I have to point out that you can denature my drink with ethyl alcohol any time you want to.

Sweet Jesus!

You don't suppose that was actually surf-music Dick Dale?

I meant someone poor, of course, but your point stands: anyone who gets more than two hundred grand a year earns it with hard work and gumption, while anyone who gets less than a hundred grand is an undeserving moocher who has no idea what hard work means. The idea that anyone in the Taker class might ever experience joy keeps the <i>Times</i> editors up at night.

Here is the future to which Obama is misleading us: <a href="http:\/\/m.youtube.com\/watch\?v=t8tdmaEhMHE&amp\;desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dt8tdmaEhMHE" target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=t8tdmaEhMHE&desk...">http://m.youtube.com/watch?...

“psychosis, depression, suicidal thoughts, and…loss of engagement in formerly pleasurable activities!" This woman's writing induces all of the above. Also, what is it with these people and light bulbs ? It's not like we are reduced to kerosene lamps and beef tallow candles. You just can't buy the less efficient incandescent bulbs any more.

Me too, and I haven't smoked in decades.

Even the synopsis of this dipshit's column is overflowing with examples of … I'm out of adequate descriptions right now. All I can come up with is something about plumping the depths of septic tanks at a Christian summer camp. Oh yeah, the thing I was going to rant about was how the hell does marijauna "blow through America"? Is this a new extreme weather event? Is Obama flying over us dropping open bags of weed ?

Having grown up in the 70's, I mock any attempts to characterize contemporary society as particularly stoned.
