For pot smokers, Wednesday, April 20, more famously known as 4/20 or an international day to smoke pot, is one of the most anticipated days of the year. Hundreds of thousands of wacky tobacky enthusiasts will gather in San Francisco near the famed Haight-Ashbury District on “Hippie Hill,” head to Boulder, Colorado to indulge in weed smoking or just kick back for a pot-hazed celebration that transcends Christmas, Fourth of July and Halloween. For those who aren’t familiar with marijuana culture, this quick guide will give you a look into the fads, must-have items and stoners in popular culture that you need to familiarize yourself with in order to understand the ins and outs of the holiday and the subculture. You might be a pothead if…

  • Terms like “dank,” “chill” or “far out” are part of your everyday vocabulary. We know you think it’s dope to talk like that when you’re smacked, and I’m sure that stash is fire, but “irregardless” will never become a real word. Sorry, midnight tokers.
  • You own the “Planet Earth” box set.
  • You frequently dream of someday settling down in Amsterdam, even though you’ve never been there.
  • You can make a bong out of just about anything. Alright, you crafty bastards, you think you’ve mastered the art, but here’s one you’ve probably never tried: You’re going to need a PVC pipe, some vaseline and a housecat. preferably one you won’t miss.
  • You often tell people to “smell this nug.”
  • You’re paranoid by just about anything. Have you ever swallowed a lit joint because you thought you heard someone knocking? Was that Bob Marley poster looking at you funny? Ever thought smoking out of an aluminum can was going to give you cancer? We thought so.
  • You carry on unsolicited conversations about time travel for hours at a time.
  • “Smoke Two Joints” by Sublime is your ringtone.
  • Your go-to summer outfit consists of a sublime shirt, a drug rug, board shorts and hemp sandals.
