They're about 30 years too late. I think the current college pothead market is saturated with Bob Marley gear.

I'm guessing the Wii Bong would use the nunchuck as a lighter.

I was unaware there was a need to further license his pictures. I thought I'd seen it on every conceivable piece of merchandise already. perhaps it's only the people I know?

So I'm sure you'll have no problem with me offering my new GoGoGo Horse Dildo for sale.

I don't think that's COOL at all.

Seriously.

Hell I may think that pot is for teenagers, but that's not my point. Why do people buy this shiat with someones face on it? The Che shirts, und so weiter. It is silly. It is something that young kids do and I (would like to) believe that Fark is mostly adults. Yet I still see people in their 20's - 30's with images of these clique leaders. Don't get me wrong, I am not a "lulz grow up!" type guy, I still am into and wear the same clothes I did when I was younger, I do not have an office job, usw. Though even I see nothing but silliness when I gaze upon this type of merchandise in adults houses. The worst bit (and this is most apparent in Che's case) is that most people can't for their lives actually say shiat that this person did.

It's horrible how people wear T-shirts bearing his likeness and have no understanding of how many people he killed.

That's funny, because I think booze is for people who don't know any better than to smoke weed. And I could likely drink you under the table, regardless.

Thank you. That got a laugh out of me today and i'm pretty sure i'm entering into clinical depression. (Not really, but sorta... maybe) So, good job.
