The woman who plays the mother did a good job. He look of horror is this ad's biggest selling point.

It's just not enough to save the ad.

Not in Oregon, either. The rules are pretty fuckin strict to begin with, plus individual dispensaries go the extra mile to maintain a veneer of legitimacy in the local community. A fancy glass cake display filled with unwrapped candies is laughably unrealistic. More like individually packaged in vaguely medicine-y labelled mylar bags behind a counter where customers can't reach.

Every pot shop I've seen has an ante-room and a security guard like an airlock/buffer for outside viewers. Most have tinted or mirrored windows and innocuous medical-sounding names.

Actually, that's pretty accurate for state-endorsed shops around here. In fact, the single best (probably only) argument against the legalization of marijuana is pointing out exactly what "legalization" will entail for New Englanders: a crony-capitalist pseudo-regualtory scheme, carefully crafted in order to destroy locally-sourced independent growers, while enriching both the state and Big Ganja with windfall profits from over-priced, under-performing skunk weed.

A friend of mine actually came out here from the sunny pot-fields of Yakima, intending to set up an East Coast branch for her father's respectable, organic West Coast dispensary business. She left in disgust.

Like Cena I also can't use pot because of my job. I'm not a hater, and neither is he. If it's legal for more people then more power to them.

So if the WWE allowed its talent to smoke pot, you think John Cena would do so?

Probably not, but I wouldn't hold it against him if he did.

But what if he smoked pot before a match? He could kill someone!

Have you forgotten about the Cena of decade ago? I'll bet he was not just using, but also selling pot too. He was a street thug, the Dr. of Thugganomics.
Today he would only smoke off duty.

Yeah, and that's why he got his ass kicked by CM Punk. John Cena learned pretty quick that he had to straighten out if he wanted to be a champion.

And whaddaya mean "off duty"? There's no such thing! Being a wrestler is a 24/7 commitment!

You were in the military. It's kind of a 24/7 thing in some areas like how the UCMJ always applies, but I can drink when I'm off duty as long as it's more than 12 hours before coming back on duty. I'm sure Cena drinks here and there.

Well, drinking's not as bad as pot. It's still a vice, and you still shouldn't do it, but if the reign of Stone Cold Steve Austin taught us anything, it is that even a drunkard can be a champion, so long as he has the heart of a rattlesnake.

Homer, baiting like a motherfucker.

He baits rather well, you could say he's a journeyman baiter.

It's not a bait, it's an important issue. Now that smoking pot is becoming legal, we need to have the discussion about whether smoking pot is wise. Just because the state has no right to forbid you from guzzling Big Gulps and playing with liquid mercury, that doesn't mean you *should* do these things.

The citizens of Massachusetts are finally being treated like adults; now it's time for them to act like ones.
