Did It Have To Be That Guy?

As idle sons and daughters of the independently wealthy we've been known to partake in the consumption of a rather wide assortment of illicit drugs. You name it, we've taken it. We're also certain that if some of our wealth-challenged readers have not heard of it, we've definitely taken it. There really is no greater pleasure than partaking in activities that are only known to our select group.

There is always talk about medical marijuana and to a lesser extent (unless you are on a college campus) talk of legalizing marijuana. Frankly, we don't give a damn. We are so well connected, and we do mean to rub it in, that it's almost as if the damn stuff is legal. What are you going to do, arrest us? Please.

Yet, we do feel tiny pangs of sympathy in our hearts for our relatively less wealthy friends who do, indeed, take on some risks while consuming their rather low-grade versions of the magical herb. We wouldn't really call these "people" our friends, but it certainly ups one's sensitivity quotient when one can be seen to rather deftly interact with persons across at a least a few of the social spectrums.

So, it saddens our hearts to see articles discussing the benefits of marijuana accompanied by pictures of this sort:


The caption reads something like "Man smokes a marijuana cigarette at a protest in Toronto." People, this man has green hair. Movie star Matthew McConaughey is known to smoke a doobie. Why not accompany the article with this picture?




Editor's note: We apologize for the lack of recent posts. Motivation is such an intermittent flame. And, of course, no one expects literally everyone in the office to come down with the same mysteriously itchy STD within the same week. We have to start inviting a wider collection of people to our parties.
