Toys on Dope

toys-on-dope-lead

We’re not quite sure why, but there’s something about toys doing drugs that makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. (You know, other than the actual drugs…) From Thor to Barbie, just put a joint in their mouths and some coke on their noses, and these dope-loaded playthings come to life in a way you’ve never before seen. In fact, they look so real, you almost want to have an intervention (or just join in!).

It Began As a Mistake: The Twisted Family History of Puma and Adidas

adidas-vs-puma-1.jpg

Before the War on Terror, Iraq, Afghanistan and the first Gulf War; before Vietnam, Korea and the long Cold War, the old world order was dominated by the tyranny of fear of Nazi Germany and the atrocities of catastrophic world war. But within the tumultuous years between WWI and WWII emerged two of today’s most dominant shoe companies: Puma and Adidas. And they each owe their existences to a mere family misunderstanding between broken brothers. (more…)

Super High: Best Weed Ever

Back in the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s, weed was nothing much more than some funky grass that made you feel chill, silly and hungry. But today, the US government’s Office of National Drug Control Policy has announced that the average percentage of THC, the psychoactive ingredient, in the currently available marijuana has risen to 9.6-percent, up from 1983’s report of just under 4-percent.

The study was done by the University of Mississippi’s Potency Monitoring Project (how do we join?), which tested 62,797 cannabis samples, 1,302 hashish samples, and 468 hash oil samples, confiscated by law enforcement. “The increases in marijuana potency are of concern since they increase the likelihood of acute toxicity, including mental impairment,” said Dr. Nora Volkow, Director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

Increased mental impairment a concern? Well, our only concern is getting our hands on some of that bud.
