<title>Slog - Comments on One Toke Over the Line</title>
<link>http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/11/one_toke_over_the_line</link>
<description>The White House drug-policy office, with less than three months before Obama replaces the drug czar, is launching one of Bush&apos;s last anti-pot campaigns. The announcement comes from the drug czar&apos;s blog, Pushing Back—which sounds like an instructional resource for bottoms. Strangely, it doesn&apos;t &quot;push back&quot; against the marijuana decriminalization law that just passed in Massachusetts, but it does announce that this is where your tax money is going: The ad warns, “Hey, not trying to be your mom, but there aren&apos;t many jobs out there for potheads.” Oh, snap. You see, if you smoke pot, you could end up...</description>

<description><![CDATA[<p><br />
Just because talented people smoke pot, doesn't mean that smoking pot makes you talented.</p>

<p>One thing the Potheads suppress:</p>

<p>The coming down off pot is worse than any other drug.   Watch out when someone had a "great time last night", because it means your in for an earful.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>What? You mean I wasn't supposed to be able to hold down any of those jobs I've worked for the last 30 years? Now you tell me...</p>

<p>Oh, and "pothead" is so 1970s.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@1:  No, but the claim by the government, was that pot makes you unable to hold a good job.  So examples of pot-smokers who hold good jobs are actually RELEVANT, unlike your blather.</p>

<p>Damn, but I'm in a mood today.  I need to smoke some fucking pot.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>One toke over the line sweet Jesus<br />
One toke over the line<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line</p>

<p>Awaitin' for the train that goes home, sweet Mary<br />
Hopin' that the train is on time<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line</p>

<p>Whoooo do you love, I hope it's me<br />
I've bin a changin', as you can plainly see<br />
I felt the joy and I learned about the pain<br />
that my momma said<br />
If I should choose to make a part of me,<br />
surely strike me dead<br />
Now I'm one toke over the line sweet Jesus<br />
One toke over the line<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line<br />
I'm waitin' for the train that goes home sweet Mary<br />
Hopin' that the train is on time<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line</p>

<p>I bin away a country mile,<br />
Now I'm returnin' showin' off a smile<br />
I met all the girls and loved myself a few<br />
Ended by surprise like everything else I've been through<br />
It opened up my eyes and now I'm<br />
One toke over the line sweet Jesus<br />
One toke over the line<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
Don't you just know I waitin'<br />
for the train that goes home sweet Mary<br />
Hopin' that the train is on time<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line</p>

<p>Don't you just know I waitin'<br />
for the train that goes home sweet Mary<br />
Hopin' that the train is on time<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line</p>

<p>I want to be <br />
One toke over the line sweet Jesus<br />
One toke over the line<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line<br />
Don't you just know I waitin'<br />
for the train that goes home sweet Mary<br />
Hopin' that the train is on time<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over the line<br />
Sittin' downtown in a railway station<br />
One toke over line<br />
One toke, one toke over the line <br />

<description><![CDATA[<p>"Bailo-think":</p>

<p>1. Idea no. 1:</p>

<p>"Just because talented people smoke pot, doesn't mean that smoking pot makes you talented" </p>

<p>Therefore ban pot and throw people in jail for it!</p>

<p>2. logically equivalent "idea" no. 2:</p>

<p>"Just because talented people drink milk,  doesn't mean that drinking milk makes you talented" .....</p>

<p>therefore ban milk and throw people in jail for drinking it!</p>

<p>3. Logically equivalent "idea" no. 3:</p>

<p>"Just because talented people have a cocktail now and then," etc. etc. </p>

<p>Note the subject also said "your" in place of "you're"....and capitalized "Pothead" when anyone knows it's not capitalized.</p>

<p>[suuuuuuuuucking sound of inhalation....]</p>

<p>Conclusion: the subject is unable to connect ideas or apply rules of grammar in a logical or coherent way.  The data shows the subject, my friend John Boy, is a "Pothead" himself or that someone gave him a "funny brownie" recently...</p>

<p>Uuuuuuuuuniiiiiiiiityyyyyyyyyyyy--man -- <br />

<description><![CDATA[<p>That ad is actually pretty funny.  It's like they don't even believe their own arguments any more.  They've descended  into self-parody.</p>

<p>And if they're going to throw people in prison for not having a job, they're going to need to build more prisons.</p>

<p>(Then the government can sponsor ad campaigns for "Get a lucrative job in the fast-growing field of prison construction!")</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This irritates me almost as much as the "viral" truth anti-smoking ads.</p>

<p>I liked it when the government was telling me that I was going to shoot my best friend with dad's revolver or run over a little girl on a tricycle in my car because of marijuana more than this "ironic" drivel.</p>

<p>Invariably, all anti-substance propaganda makes me want to consume that substance even more, out of spite.<br />

<description><![CDATA[<p>I think it's totally unfair of this ad that is trying not to be my mother to fail to mention the numerous other things that you could be a taster of after a nice smoke, and no shit this ad isn't my mother, 'cause she'd bake some tasty chocolate chip oatmeal cookies to cure munchies rather than nagging me to get a job... drug czar jerk... </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>I'm failing to see how this ad is a disincentive to smoking pot for their target audience, usually teenage boys. I'm not even a teenage boy and being a burrito taster doesn't sound half bad to me. Bring on the Montana meth ad version of anti-pot ads!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@22: No need to get all snarky up in my grill...yes, I know what vice presidents do. You saying it's not relevant that he has a history on that issue? What if he was a huge hawk on Iraq, or wanted to push creationism in the schools? Yes, it probably won't effect much, but I think it's worth noting.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Dan,</p>

<p>I know we are in liberalville here in the Emerald City, but come on!</p>

<p>Dude, you have KIDS!!! What the fuck are you doing with drugs in the house? Seriously man, that is some fucked up shit. </p>

<p>Someone ought to report your dumbass to CPS. </p>

<p>And spare me the bullshit about trying to teach him "responsible drug use". There is no such thing. All drug use is irresponsible. Not that there is anythin inherently wrong with irreponsibility from time to time, but when you have a child, your job is to BE FUCKING RESPONSIBLE!</p>

<p>You gonna tell me that someday your dream is to share a joint with your son, like other dads share a beer with theirs? I've heard it all.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Dude, please.  I'm fine with people smoking pot, but do not try and convince me that a large number of successful people regularly smoke weed.  Pot makes people lazy, end of story.</p>

<p>Obama, Gore and Clinton smoked weed in high school or college.  I doubt they still blaze up.  (Okay well, maybe Clinton!)</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Actually, I can think of 30,000 jobs available to potheads at just one Redmond based company. Some businesses couldn't give two shits about what you do on your own time as long as you show up and get your shit done.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@27<br />
My dad's drug talk:<br />
"Don't do drugs cause you're young and they'll screw you up. But if you do do something, do pot. It's not that bad as long as you don't do it every day."<br />
I knew where his stash was growing up and still never touched the stuff til I was 19. Toked up with him on his last visit to Seattle at 25. And I'm still holding down a job.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>"The coming down off pot is worse than any other drug. Watch out when someone had a "great time last night", because it means your in for an earful."</p>

<p>seriously? you.. you really believe that? snort a few lines of coke and the next day tell me which come down is worse.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Jennifer Aniston? Really?</p>

<p>Also, @ 2: I love the term "pothead." </p>

<p>Finally, @ 33: 1/2 the NBA? That is a very conservative estimate.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by serial catowner</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Wow, this ad gets the trifecta- stupid, racist, and dishonest.</p>

<p>So, if I smoke pot, I'll become a stupid fat lazy Mexican?</p>

<p>I don't think so.  That "pot munchies" thing is so 1969.  As is pot from Mexico, come to think of it.</p>

<p>And numerous studies have shown there is no difference between regular marijuana smokers and others when it comes to health or employment.</p>

<p>So we have a federal agency still standing proud with Elvis and Nixon to "fight drugs".  A brain-dead zombie from the past.</p>

<p>I guess if pot actually did make you too stupid to work, you could still always get a job- <i>fighting drugs</i>.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>I cant believe you let her off so easy Dan.  Disappointing.  So tired of the "ITS FOR THE KIDS!" panic people put forward. Do this to protect the kids, dont do this to protect the kids, donate money 'cuz its for the kids....there is such a thing as responsible use just as there is such a thing as paying attention to your own parenting skills before critizing others.<br />
Im sure her house has plenty of sugar and caffiene and other "drugs" herself and her children are subjected to in their own daily lives but since they're LEGAL those mind altering, body chemisty changing drugs are ok to abuse...er I mean use.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by uncle baggy</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This ad is a great reminder to me, as I haven't had a burrito in like 5 weeks... If only I could burn one down before walking across the street from my well-paid, steady job to have a nice, meaty burrito. Alas, there's work to be done, and there's a time of day for all activities.</p>

<p>That poster is completely awesome - I'm glad to see my tax dollars are now being spent on worthless comedy rather than worthless prosthetizing.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@27: ecce, you can't be serious, or you don't have teenage kids. </p>

<p>we've been open & honest about past & current weed use with our 2, and they're both on the dean's list @ UW, and drink/smoke out WHEN APPROPRIATE. as in, not before class, not when studying for a test, not before work, not in front of a cop unless obama just got elected.</p>

<p>the only reason you'd have to hide it, or lie to your YOUNG kids about it, is the propaganda they're subjected to in elementary school makes then likely to rat you out to the po. </p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by Will in Seattle</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Remember folks, don't drive or operate heavy machinery when you're inebriated, no matter what got you that way.</p>

<p>Pot, alcohol, 80 java shots, whatever.</p>

<p>Oh, and when you're really high and telling the funniest story ever, trust me, it's not that funny. No, really, it isn't.  Unless you just inhaled from a helium balloon before you said it ...</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by WTF</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I don't think the "Above the Influence" campaign is that bad. They have had a few ads I thought were okay. I think it is a better approach than the "in your face" pot will kill you 80's ads.</p>

<p>I don't smoke pot anymore, because it did make unmotivated. Plus it stopped doing much for me.</p>]]></description>
