    Yes, you are. Here in Toronto there's a March every year and you can smoke with no consequences - As long as you don't drive afterwards.

    I'm a former weed smoker, and I just heard about this last year. People were talking about 4/20 on facebook, and I was like "huh?"

    That's weird. If I only weeded once a year, I think my heliconias would die.

    You've never even heard the term "420" before? Geez what rock have you been living under? If you google it you only get about 6 billion results.

    You definitely weren't a heavy pot smoker, then.

    This is true.

    Any of you that use dating sites, if you see the words 420 friendly it means they like smoking weed and would like to meet someone similar!

    I didn't know this either til I asked but I'm glad I did.

    Oh and to add to this I still do it, I don't care what anyone else thinks I'm extremely healthy otherwise and it's my one little thing I do when I'm relaxing. I never let it change me and I don't let it affect the way I run my life in any way shape or form. I've done a 100 mile bike ride while stopping every 20 miles with friends to have one.

    I don't know if you guys are more strict in the US, some comments seem to be way more anti drugs than here in the UK, we get reports on them in the papers n stuff but that's about it, nobody shouts out about it.

    weeds haven't even sprouted yet here. i don't start weeding the garden until well after mother's day.
    4/20 being weeding day sure as hell confuses me every year.

    i wonder why the store sells out of doritos and twinkies that day too. *shrug*

    It is a long time since I celebrated 420 day.... always makes for a pleasant smelling day around NYC parks.

    lol OMG all my friends have been talking about this..... $/20 originally stems from the time of beepers. It was the code you would send to your friends to let them know you want to smoke. Every since the early 90's 4/20 became the offical smoke out day. LOL the bar is gonna be fun tomorrow :smokin: (seemed appropriate lol )

    Okay, THAT I didn't know!! & the other guy talking about dating sites & people asking if your are 420 friendly, I just got one of those messages & I was like wtf? I thought it was such a weird way to open a conversation!! I guess it's the norm!
