if pot became legal...

if pot became legal...

imagine the television commercials that would flood the tube.

they'd be somewhat like all those other pharmacuetical ads.

you know the ones.

showing formally depressed people now walking around the park all
liberated and happy.

or some guy who just took Viagra confidently walking his woman to a
bathtub on a hilltop overlooking the ocean.

or some old arthritic people now rowing boats with their grandkids.

except, the pot commercials would be a bit different.

college kids slacking back on dorm couches trading theories while
their professors lectured empty halls.

intensified foreplay scenes.

stuff like that.

but the kicker would be the obligatory warnings near the end of the
commercial.

instead of the usual deep voice of an authoritative male gently
listing off the requisite possible complications and percentages
regarding heart attacks, strokes, bladder eruptions, etc., Tommy Chong
would be talking about his favorite places to get tacos and whatnot.

"and hey man, it might lead to harder drugs!"
