Drugs "Weed's a bit too Twentieth-Century for me."

Posted by Jason Baxter on Mon, Jul 18, 2011 at 1:34 PM

I just remembered that this was a thing that existed and had to rummage through my circa-2000 comic book collection so I could scan it. So much gold here, I don't even know where to begin. "No thanks, I might get kicked off the math team?" And what's up with #42? That is not an acceptable retort. Also: "What does this look like? Woodstock?"

"Not tonight, I have a headache"

"No, I only smoke sausage."

Jesus, why not just blow a rape whistle in the face of anyone that lights up?

I rolled with some serious stoners throughout Jr High and High School, and rarely ever smoked. It's not that hard to say "I'm good, thanks" politely before you're friends realize it's not really your thing and life goes on.

Of course if coming off like a judgmental, sanctimonious, unbalanced prick that lacks even basic party courtesy is more your thing kids, then memorize this list.

#27: "No, I only smoke sausage." Really, now they're just screwing with us.

whoever designed that poster musta been blazed outta their minds. also, i would change the poster title to '77 ways to say no to weed and ask for blow instead and still be cool'

"No, it'll violate my parole."

If you're on parole you either already smoke or don't need a cheesemos poster to tell you how to say no.

77 ways to say no to weed and still be an asshole douchenozzle.

A simple "No thanks, not my thing, but please enjoy yourself" will do.

My stoner friends know I don't smoke weed and still offer everytime to be polite, now at least I have some funny shit to say!

I'd rather eat my mother's mystery casserole? Is that a euphemism?

hahahaha omfg I have this! When I was probably 14 I ripped this page out of my Seventeen magazine and highlighted 13 of them that I liked and taped it to my wall. Needless to say I was uber goody-goody. I just found my copy in my scrapbook, with my pink and blue highlighting, so crazy. Unfortunately these anti-drug ads didn't do me any good, since college corrupted me ;)

No, I might get kicked off the math team. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

#46: I'm on my way to the mall.

I wouldn't set foot in a mall without smoking a pile of weed first.....

"My parents did and look at them now" is dark

Posted by Jason Baxter on July 18, 2011 at 4:27 PM

These kind of retorts aren't cool? (my favorite was "I'm not going to commit a felony, thanks!")

Now I know why people hated me when I was a teenager.

Jesus, it's like reading an American sitcom.

Posted by Fistique on July 18, 2011 at 6:17 PM

I can't believe, "Sorry, but weed totally harshes my meth buzz" didn't make the list.

I loved # 2 about being a hippie, while I think pot should be legal shouldnt we try to not get kids to do it like we do with beer and ciggerattes?

Posted by Democrat1234 on July 18, 2011 at 9:38 PM

I just go with, "no thanks, it makes me psychotic." and then show them the commitment papers if they continue to pressure me.

Posted by stilettov on July 18, 2011 at 10:49 PM

I liked #42 better when I thought it was just "Poof!"

"Would you like some pot?"
"Poof!"
"What?"
"Poof!"

Then, I realized it was terrible terrible layout, and 42 was "Poof! Be gone!"

Posted by TheMisanthrope on July 18, 2011 at 11:26 PM

I sort of chuckle when people say no mostly because I just feel bad.

Posted by anal smith on July 19, 2011 at 12:17 AM

really, was peer pressure a "thing" for anyone? did anyone get a hard time for saying " no thanks"? i sure didn't. i smoked very little pot until this past year. after my 23rd birthday i turned in to a pothead and i haven't turned back. i've wasted entirely too much of my life not getting high before terrible social situations.
