I'm proud of being a POT head.
Hey,
like most of the people on earth I smoke weed. But, unlike some I happen to just live in THE LAND WHERE THE BEST WEED IS. Yes, that place in British Columbia. We have the most potent Bud U can belive. Here we have the rule of "BBB". Beer, Bud, & Bitches. SO U! Yes U! have U seen the best place on earth? No, come up to BC. but be sure to come to Vancover. The place to B. So bring the family, just for the recode, i'm 18, Persian, and if U wana brake rules, BC is also the place to be. This is a FACT. [if U get busted by the cops 8 times for grand thift Auto, it's 6 months in jail. THAT IS A FUCKING JOKE. So once again, bring the family, see all our lovely sits, and have a good time, cuz when your in Canada your family. PEACE AND LOVE B WITH U. ( ^_^ )
