Best movies to Watch While High: Stoners vs Potheads a House Divided

How has One of the most pertinent and prevailing questions of our time escaped a definitve answer for so long. Why has no list been able to once and for all capture the true essence of this most important question.   Why has it come down to Anigga to set straight one of the greatest misconceptions of our time. You see contempary thinking would tell us there are two types of smokers.

Potheads and Stoners which can basically be pared down to those who like to laugh and those who like to think. While this is true on some levels and false on others it still does nothing to present us with a definitive answer for our problem. 

You see the truth is the best movies to watch while high is not about who you are or what you smoke or how much you smoke, what you smoke or how often. It's basically a matter of mood or company. Where would you like to go and where are you getting to?

No need to put things in such a dichotomy. So Instead of going about this the wrong way again Let's pose a few different questions. What side of your brain is working today. Are you remembering dumb times and trips through the Amsterdam air with comrades, the pointless wanderings of your youth, mishaps and misadventures?

Cooley High:





Friday:

Clerks:

Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle: Slightly better than the second one.

Long time Native of Amsterdam? Consider yourself something of a connisseur ? learned the worth of a good oldie?

Up in Smoke:



Dont know quite what you want?

Pulp Fiction


The Big Lebowski:


A Recurring memory Pestering You of Late? Did that dark place you went where you more like home

Pan's Labyrith

Waking Life

Donnie Darko

Feel the Call of the Natural World? Earlier days or Simpler Times Perhaps

Koyaanisqatsi: See the full Movie courtesy of youtube.

The Earth:

Year One Film Review

I caught this movie last night completely by chance. one of those 3am nothing to choose from type of things. How bad could it be amirite?

Not to bad at all as it turned out.

The plot is basically a jumbled subversion of stories from the book of Genesis, with Jack Black as the village idiot who believes he is the chosen one after eating from the "forbidden tree". Joining him on the quest is Michel Cera as some guy whos name I cant remember but who has the same female problems Cera had in "Nick and Norah's infintie playlist." The first scene with Cain and Abel was one of the best parts of the movie imo.

The comedy isnt spectacular but then except for Craig Phillip Robinson there wasnt anything to remarkabale about Pineapple Express and yet people throw it up there on the top of every fucking stoner list. At least in Year one there is a slight and possibly cautionary message related to religion and belief.

Comedic Value 3/5
Watch it while visiting Amsterdam 4/5
Just Watch it 3/5

Youll Never convince me a word is stronger than me

Never. Niggga. Nope Not ever nigga. Young old black white it makes me no difference. In fact if Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan, Martin Luther King, and Ghandi all converged into one super being just for the purpose of convincing me to stop using the word nigga, still I would refuse.

I refuse to believe that it is worth my dignity or time to call newspapers or start riots because some white person said nigga. Now if youre the type of person that believes that the word Nigga MAKES (it doesnt) you do or feel anything then that's fine and that's your choice(plz leave my page) But trying to Ban a word from other people is just plain stupid.

Words are nothing more than sounds, the meaning comes at the point of interpretation or understanding. If the word Nigga has different connations in someone else's mind who are you to tell them they are wrong. Just because the word nigga MAKES you feel one way doesn't mean that implies to everyone.

Maybe it's me but I just don't buy into this kind of Bullshit. I'm sure white people say Nigga all the time when I'm not around. Just as my loving, caring grandma would refer to police officers as "crackas' or "the man". The use or disuse of such words may signify ignorance or closed mindeness but it doesnt say to much about character. People that think youre a nigga or going to think yure a nigga whether they say it out loud or not.

How is the economic/spirtual/mental state of Black America be improved by the banning of the word Nigga.






if the word nigga MAKES you do anything then you have affectively lost control of yourself.
That being said.

Sealab vs Aqua Teen Hunger Force

Back to Azeroth

At last I've acquired the long sought and probably better spent elsewhere funds needed to begin my grand conquest of all /2's. Nothing like a speedy access to a drug you've known before. I literally shook as I waited for wsg the boring level until i could bg.

My new toon is a rogue which is a class I'd always been interested in playing since I first made the climb to 60 and realized how gimped my class was.

Stepping The Film Game Up

And abruptly on this random date I've returned with news from the front. I've been escaping to movie gallery a lot recently which is nothing unusual in itself but not in search of any ol flicks. The movies I'm after these days TEND not to be your the normal theater fare.
A few films that I saw recently in particular have me thinking more and more about what I've been missing.The first is the movie More. (1969) I think Pink Floyd did the soundtrack and the director is . Anyway if you havent already you guy gotta get up on this film.
