So I am sitting in my recliner chillin, tuned in to one of my shows. Then comes the time I despise, the commercial. Not only that but the commercial is anti-pot. That isn't even the bad part, it makes it look as if pot takes away your ability to make decisions for yourself. I don't know about you guys but I smoke because I enjoy it and it is MY decision to toke. It's not as if the pot possesses you, it just stones you. It isn't even addicting. When I was put on supervised probation I quit cold-turkey with no adverse affects, except I was a little more easily aggravated but thats it. Now I can see if people want to keep thier children off of drugs but to portray it as something it isn't is just wrong. Now enough ranting for me. Whats your thoughts?

Or the one where the little boy gets burns all over him from his sister toking in her own room.I wish we could rebut some of the absolute bullshit they put on those commercials.

What about the crappily drawn cartoon with the dog saying "I miss you"?News flash...if your dog talks to you, you're not STONED, you're SCHIZOPHRENIC.

I think he's laying on a couch. As if he got super stoned and passed out, then got drawled on.

That commercial is ignorance at it's finest.

You would think they would be smart enough to figure out that kids are smart these days.They see their freind smoking pot and they are not going nuts and killing people.So when they do try it and see for themselfs that it is not bad,they wonder if they were lied to about crack and heroin.Then they are in trouble,because that shit is'nt good for you.Those stupid commercials do more damage than good.OPH:wall:

Here's a commercial I wrote while chatting on a long ago thread.....
Can you see the commercial? Zoom in on the back of actor's head as the sound of a bong being smoked keys up in the background....(coughing, actor turns and blows smoke into the camera) "oh hi, kids....I'm Pat Sajack. You may know me from Wheel of Fortune.....and the person I'm passing the bong to here, is my good friend Keith Richards, from the Rolling Stones." Keith: Hi, mates(takes a long pull off the bong) Pat We're here to talk to you about a serious problem. Its something that gets fed to you everyday in some form or fashion...but it's being used quite liberally on Marijuana...It's called BULLSHIT! Keith, coughing: That's right kids...just say no to BULLSHIT! Hands bong to camera, as if handing it to the person watching. Pat: Now take a hit, and hold it like a man! Keith : Yeah, you Pussy!

I don't know about Keith Richards, I'm not sure pot would even phase him.

His body is so toxic he laughs at AIDS. If a snake bit him the snake would go comatose.

In the event of plague or nuclear war only cockroaches and Keith Richards would survive.
