Just because you read it off the internet doesn't mean it's true. I've learned this from real potheads, not people who pretend to know what they're talking about.

Yes, 'real potheads' are certainly the best sources of news and information. HELLO! They are stoners! They have no clue! How long did it take you to become such a hopeless dumbass?

Re: My Last Ad Here!!! just wanna kick it - 23

No, the police use the call number 4:20 when there was a person smoking ganja. Then the stoners used 4:20 as a joke, by saying you should smoke at 4:20 or on April 20th. It's a now a slang term for when to smoke pot.

Now that is funny and gullible. Which police? Where? That's nonsense. The origins of the term are unknown and disputed, although the Snopes explanation Pastor Pistle posted above is the most authoritative and most widely accepted -- that it started amongst a group at San Rafeal High School.

It's the Los Angeles or New York police radio code for marijuana smoking in progress. It's not the police radio code for anything, let alone that.

See the Pastor's post above. As if the police anywhere would have a radio code for people smoking marijuana.

If you had been smart enough to read what I posted earlier, you would not have made a fool out of yourself AGAIN. But I suppose you cannot help it.

Re: looking for some goodtimes - 23

I checked Snopes.

Claim: '420' entered drug parlance as a term signifying the time to light up a joint. Status: True.

This isn't true. The true term was International Green Day (hence the band 'Green Day') on April 20th or 4-20. It a celebration for potheads.

An excellent point, Brother; there is clearly some Satanic significance in the term.

Sounds distinctly Kabbalistic to me. In Jew numbers, the 10 Sefirot multiplied by the 12 Protocols of the Elders of Zion minus the 613 commandments equals 420. I'd be very wary of this Satanist if I were you.

You lost me a 10 Brother T, but as we all know, men are always right.

to do with Satan. More to do with reefer

We've already covered that one. You're doomed to Hell Sinner.

Claim: '420' entered drug parlance as a term signifying the time to light up a joint. Status: True.
Origins: Odd
terms sneak into our language every now and then, and this is one of the oddest. Everyone who considers himself in the know about the drug subculture has heard that '420' has something to do with illegal drug use, but when you press them, they never seem to know why, or even what the term supposedly signifies.
It's both more and less than people make it out to be. '420' began its sub-rosa linguistic career in 1971 as a bit of slang casually used by a group of high school kids at San Rafael High School in California. '420' (always pronounced "four-twenty," never "four hundred and twenty") came to be an accepted part of the argot within that group of about a dozen pot smokers, beginning as a reminder of the time they planned to meet to light up, 4:20 p.m. Keep in mind this wasn't a general call to all dope smokers everywhere to toke up at twenty past four every day; it was twelve kids who'd made a date to meet near a certain statue. It's thus incorrect to deem that '420' originated as a national or international dope-smoking time, even though the term began as a reference to a particular time of day.
These days '420' is used as a generic way of declaring one likes to use marijuana or just as a term for the substance itself. Its earliest connotation of having to do with the time a certain group of students congregated to smoke wacky tobaccy is unknown to the overwhelming majority of those who now employ the term. Indeed, most instead believe one or more of the many spurious explanations that have since grown up about this much abused short form:

• 420 is the penal code section for marijuana use in California. Nope. Section 420 of the California penal code refers to obstructing entry on public land. The penal codes of other states list different entries for 420, but none of them matches anything having to do with marijuana.
  However, on 1 January 2004 the Governor of California signed that state's Senate Bill 420 which regulates marijuana used for medical purposes. This bill comes years after the term '420' was associated with marijuana and indeed its number likely was chosen because of the existing pop culture connection. This is the tail wagging the dog, not the other way around.
  
• It's the Los Angeles or New York police radio code for marijuana smoking in progress. It's not the police radio code for anything, let alone that.
  
• It's the number of chemical compounds in marijuana. The number of chemical compounds in marijuana is 315, according to the folks at High Times magazine.
  
• April 20 is the date that Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, or Janis Joplin died. Though these performers were strongly identified with drug use during their brief lifetimes and the emerging drug culture after their demises, none of them kicked the bucket on April 20. Morrison died on July 3, Hendrix on September 18, and Joplin on October 4.
  
• The 20th of April is the best time to plant marijuana. There's no one "best time" -- that answer would change from one part of the country to another, or even one country to another.
  
• Albert Hofmann took the first deliberate LSD trip at 4:20 on 19 April 1943. This was indeed the case — his lab notes back this up. But this wasn't the source of "420," just an oddball coincidence. (For the pedants out there, Hofmann's first LSD trip, which was accidental, took place on 16 April 1943.)
  
• It's the code you send to your drug dealer's pager. Yeah, right. All drug dealers recognize a '420' page as "Please be waiting on the corner with my baggie of wildwood weed."
  
• When the Grateful Dead toured, they always stayed in Room 420. Untrue, says Grateful Dead Productions spokesman Dennis McNally.
  

Spurious etymologies and uncertain definition aside, '420' has slipped into a position of semi-respectability within the English lexicon. Various free-wheeling cities annually celebrate "hemp fests" on April 20. There's a 4:20 record label in California, and a band called 4:20. Atlanta's Sweetwater Brewing Co. sells its 420 Pale Ale in supermarkets and opens its doors to the public at 4:20 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays. New York's 420 Tours sells low-cost travel packages to the Netherlands and Jamaica. Highway 420 Radio broadcasts "music for the chemically enhanced." And in 2001, the forReal.org web site of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Center for Substance Abuse Prevention put out a public service document titled, "It's 4:20 — Do You Know Where Your Teen Is?"
420s are routinely slipped into popular movies and television shows. In Fast Times at Ridgemont High the score of the football game was 42-0. Most of the clocks in Pulp Fiction are set to 4:20 (but not all — when the kid receives the watch it's set at 9:00). And there are many other instances, so keep your eyes peeled.
However, as amusing as it is to tie 420 to pot smoking and hunt for it in popular movies, the number has its dark side. Hitler was born on 20 April 1889, and the massacre of 13 victims at Columbine High School in Colorado took place on 20 April 1999.

Haha. I assure you, it has nothing to do with Satan. More to do with reefer. If you would like me to explain to you what 4:20 is, I will. But I don't do drugs. I just know this from the people I hang out with and watching 1980s slasher flicks.

Exactly what a Satanist would say. Get thee behind us, demoness.

Re: My Last Ad Here!!! just wanna kick it - 23

Sounds distinctly Kabbalistic to me. In Jew numbers, the 10 Sefirot multiplied by the 12 Protocols of the Elders of Zion minus the 613 commandments equals 420. I'd be very wary of this Satanist if I were you.

Re: looking for some goodtimes - 23

I asked you a few important questions, woman.
And I believe that Pastor Ezekiel did so too.
Answer our questions and then we'll see.



And as for you, hellion..
Whatever demon you *think* you might have contacted, expect it to lie.
Satan is the father of lies, but also, why would it tell you the truth?
It's very purpose in life is to lead you away from God and towards satan...
Not that you'd need much guidance to find satan in the first place..

Well, duh! Everybody lies. Including me. A matter of fact, I'm a compulsive liar. It's still fun to argue with them.

You are right Pastor. I consulted my Negra Driver who knows of such things.
Negras seem to know this stuff!!

You need to be careful with this one Pastor, I fear she may be some Drug Induced, man crazy, sex starved woman who would jump on your bones as soon as look at you.

Why would I? It's not a Biblical term. It's not the address of the church. It must be some hippie dope-related thing.
