I was at the auto parts store the other day and this guy came in and got in line behind me. He smelled so repulsive of Mary jane I gagged and put down my things and left. I couldn't handle it. It was extremely disgusting.

Let's start a movement to tell these guys how bad they smell. Who's in?

You're in Colorado? I'm getting pretty used to it.

I have no problem with legalization but I do wish the stoners would just stay in their parents' basement.

FWIW, most normal cigarette smokers smell bad too.

LOL…"Parent's basement". Sad, but true. I have two friends with adult stoner children. One 30 and the other 28. They still live at home and have no interest in finding jobs. It's like they were frozen at 15 when they starting getting, and stayed, stoned.

I'm sick of the smell everywhere too. Yesterday at a british pub in Thousand Oaks four people lit up in the outdoor seating area right next to me. It was like eating with a skunk. It might as well be legal her to. Sell it and TAX IT!

Absolutely. Thank goodness the guy that sits next to me at work has been using the e-cigs or vaping for a year now. I hated when he'd come back after a smoke break.

Nobody smokes around here anymore. I go weeks without even seeing a cigarette. Although, Ventura Co is pretty much crunchy granola and organic vegetables…and Weed.

That's a fool's mission. I doesn't work for stinking cigarette smokers and it ain't gonna work for pot smokers.

And alcohol. Nothing worse than the drunk ass who is convinced your business is his.

I was working on plumbing yesterday, had to run to the hardware store a couple times for parts... I was probably pretty fragrant standing in line at the cash register... apologies if I offended anyone.

Also kinda funny the guy complaining about "those durn kids and their maryjahuna!" titled his post with a hashtag.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Just to add...

Two stroke motorcycles... one mans stink is another mans perfume.
I love the smell of new tires... a trip to the tire store give me a chubby... my wife after getting her tires rotated "ewwww, how can these guys stand to work here!?!"

Just like spending time in El Segundo. Refinery on one end, sewage treatment plant on the other. Good lord that place stunk when I was a kid.

Pedro has its own distinct aroma of industrial flatus.
