Hello,

I am wondering if there is a list of all reference to marijuana in the
Simpsons episodes.
The better I known is when Bart get a credit card and buy a dog.
Finally Santa's little Helper becomes the property of a blind man and
at the end of the episode we can listen to Jamming from Bob Marley
performed by wiggum!
Everytime I watch this episode I can't stop laughing! too much.

If you have another reference, please post them!

There was the episode when Otto comes out of a housewares store called
Stoners Pot Store, and says, "Man, that is false advertising!!!"

In "The Way We Was," a student brings what Dondolinger thinks is a bong to the
prom, but it turns out to be an inhaler. In "Homer's Barbershop Quartet," Bart
buys a bong, thinking that it's a pencil holder. Several marijuana references
were made by or about Cypress Hill in "Homerpalooza." References to Otto's
marijuana use have been quite frequent.

I think the most obviouse is the Hullabalooza episode...

Bart: What's that smell?
Lisa: I don't know, it smells like Otto's jacket

There is also the scene where Bart and Millhouse are sucking on the Squishy as
if it were a bong and procede to do Springfield, "Broadway style".

How about the end of the Laddie episode, where the cops smoke the pot
confiscated from the blind guy. Chief Wiggum singing
that Bob Marley song was hilarious.

What about the episode when Mr. Burns had a flashback he was on a Greenpeace
boat dressed as a hippie. He says "The guy you thought was Wavy Gravy was not
him after all". He pulls out a bong. "And all this time I've been smoking
harmless tobacco."

Louv mentioned the episode with the dinner party,where Kirk and Luanne
VanHoutan break up.The store Otto came out of was "Stoney's Pot Palace".
"Oh man, that's false advertising."
Also, in "Homerpalooza", Homer makes a referance to a bong,I don't
remember the exact quote.

Incidently, there was a missed oportunity for an obvious joke when Homer said
"Man I haven't seen a bong in years, " He could have flashed back to High
school sitting at a desk using a bong as  pencil holder...

And I was thinking of another while reading the thread and now forgot.

D'oh!

when sideshow bob was running for mayor, he was talking about mayor quimby
on the radio and he(or the host) was naming all of quimbys bad traits and he
mentioned pot growing as one, then they showed quimby in his office watering
his marijuana plants while listening 2 the show and said, "that is not true.

Ya know, one thing that always bugged me about the "Prohibition" episode,
was that there were NO marijuana references.....it was absolutely a perfect
episode to put in all sorts of marijuana stuff, but not a single one!

Oh well......maybe next time......

In which episode did Homer say, "I havent seen a bong in year'. I remember him
saying that but I'm not sure which episode it came from.

Also, in the episode where Bart dates Lovejoy's daughter Jessica, Lisa begs
that guilty party to come forward (to confess to stealing the money from the
church collection plate) and Skinner stands up and says, "I did it
! I smelled some marijuana smoke in vietnam!!!"

This is from "Homer's Barbershop Quartet", where Bart buys a bong at
the swap meet because he thinks it's a pencil holder.

well...

"Homerpalooza":


Bart: What's that smell?

Lisa: It smells like Otto's jacket

I forget which episode this is in, but I think it is the one where Krusty gets
cancelled. They are showing Krusty a graph of his ratings (i think that's what
it was) and they plummet right at 4:20 pm. For those of you who don't know 420
is like a code word sort of thing for pot, and stoners always like to try to
smoke at 4:20...

There's also an episode which shows Mayor Quimby watering a pot plant that he
has hidden in the closet of his office..I think its the one where Sideshow Bob
becomes mayor...

also the one where Lisa helps Mr. Burns start a recycling company. Mr. Burns
changes some cans in for many at a stand run by a middle aged hippy in a tie
dyed shirt and he says something like "Thanks to our Hemp smoking friend here>
Shine on you crazy diamond!" (a pink floyd reference, as well..)

that's all I can think of right now...

I can't believe no one mentioned the episode with Laddie (Bart's
wonder dog). At the end, Laddie leads the police to a blind man with
a bag of the stuff in his pocket. The credits close as we hear Wiggum
and the cops talking about "analyzing" the evidence, as Bob Marley's
"Jammin'" plays in the background. :-D

Unless I missed it, nobody mentioned the reference in "Camp
Krusty". When Homer and Marge were saying goodbye to Bart and
Lisa, Homer said something to the effect of, "remember...leaves
of three, let them be (poison ivy?), but leaves of four - eat
some more...".

Since in the Simpson universe, people only have four fingers on
each hand, it's assumable that pot only has four leaves...

I am ashamed! All this mention of the Hullabalooza episode
and no one states the most obvious....

A stage manager walks in with the London philharmonic and asks "Alright who
ordered the London philharmonic, possibly while high? Cypress hill i'm looking
in your general direction.." or something to that effect.

While we're on this subject, I suppose I can mention that Apu charges $4.20 for
gas at the beginning of "Homer and Apu," and that (in "Bart's Friend Falls in
Love"), Otto announces that his girlfriend is dancing topless at the airport
bar from 4:15 to 4:20.

In the B Sharps episode, Bart says he bought a pencil holder and Homer
says something about "I haven't seen a bong in years."

I don't think syndication cuts are aimed at drug references. I just think
that the little jokes, unrelated to the plot are sometimes dealing with
drugs. (No pun intended) I work at a Fox affiliate, and I really don't see
Fox as someone who would go out of their way to cut all the drug
references. Besides they leave more in than they take out.

For the male (legal when imported, used for hemp fibers). The female (7
leaves) has the THC in it. Proving again that you do use what you learn in

This recent thread made me think of other store signs in the Simpsons that were
gags or puns, especially the one featured in the "Lard of the Dance".

Donner Party Supplies (or something along those lines).

Donner Party being the settlers that were forced to canibalize their own party
when stranded crossing the rockies in winter.

Anyone want to add to this list.

Speaking of store signs,I was reminded of the ep. where Apu gets
married.Homer takes him out to spiffy him up and they go to "The Hairy
Shearer's" for a hair cut.And of course "The SLeEp eAZY Motel".There are
so many it is hard to remember them all.
