  • Well, can't these cancer patients paint, play sports, or listen to music instead of doing drugs? That's what they taught us in health class.

  • The Court made the right decision. Once you legalize the medical use of marijuana, it's only a matter of time before you start seeing medical use of harder narcotics, like morphine.

  • Great. Now how am I supposed to treat my recurrent case of Doritos Aversion Syndrome?
