At This Point, 4/21 Is Funnier

It's the truth

You know what 4/20 is. I'm not asking. I'm saying you are aware that 4/20 is a day designated for weed, marijuana, cannabis, la la, tree, keef, ganja, fatty boom blatty, kush, every word that means weed or is related to the leaf. You also know what YouTube is. You see many YouTube comments that reference 4/20 and smoking weed. Guess what? 4/20 was funny, but now 4/21 is just as funny, if not more so.

Think about it: For years we have been conditioned to anticipate a 4/20 reference when we see something weed-related. It's still a little funny because it's a lazy joke, but I can't believe I still see 4/20 mentioned so often. It feels like an obligation to post it now. There's no soul to it anymore. I propose we start using 4/21 instead. It's funnier because it's dry and not weed-related, with the exception that its use is totally derivative of 4/20, the day we smoke up our big fat kush blunts in our big fat Bugattis. So if you use 4/21, people will understand your new joke. Trust me.

I'm not saying we move 4/20 to 4/21. I would never say that. Why would you think that? Are you high? How would we get everyone on board with that? What I'm saying is we start typing 4/21 instead of 4/20 when we use the internet because it's more funny now. Calling it a curveball is very basic and detracts from the complexity of the humor. It's funny. I'm funny. 4/21 is funnier because it proves that as a collective conscious, we have agreed to regulate and modify an aspect of weed culture. It's a slight shift that shows the reader whoever typed this comment is aware that we've built up a tolerance to 4/20 and we need a new direction. Simply put, swag won't pay the bills, you need someone with class. See? That's not as potent as it used to be. You've read that too many times. Then again, maybe I didn't deliver it correctly. That's a fair point. I'll reconsider. Sorry.

We have the opportunity to start something great here. It will be turning over a new leaf. 4/21 will cause zero confusion. I'm telling you. Even if someone who doesn't understand gets upset and asks "don't you mean 4/20?", that person is either high or faded to be left behind. The joke has surpassed them. Therefore, 4/21 is arguably more funny because it will be at the expense of those who do not understand the shift has taken place.

I'm writing an article a week minimum and this is the best I could do on a Friday morning! It wasn't executed properly. I don't even smoke anything. I drink water. Right now I just want to go outside and look at nature, interact, lift things and listen to music. You can do whatever you want with 4/21. I hereby release all form of conceptual property to the public because I love you. My creative spark is gone. Nothing a little rolling papers can't mend. This article has a nasty tone to it that I can't avoid, but something's gotta go on the internet. I have some fine stuff on here. A little bit, there are like five or 10 I mess with. Just not in the mood lately. Sick of jokes. Just wanna be funny without the formula. In due time. I'm going outside, right after I figure out if this article should be tagged as "health and wellness/drugs/recreational" or "seasonal/holidays."

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
