You can read into this what you want, but the simple fact of the matter is that following legalization, cannabis loses a few of its cool points. Why exactly? Well, quite simply because the moment you see your parents, your aunt, your grandparents or your teacher smoking a joint, you find yourself with little to no choice but to re-evaluate what cool really means. Worse still, there’s always the potential horror of being invited to smoke a few joints with your parents – something that has the potential to be awesome or awful in equal measure. Cannabis culture ceases to be something reserved for those with good taste and instead just becomes an everyday product. And of course, you’ll have to deal with thousands of newbies who really don’t have a clue what they’re doing or what they’re talking about.
