"Exotic smoking practices around the world, of great anthropological value!"

I bet if one of the local weed shops here in Portland would hire a pitchman to stand outside their business and yell shit like this, they'd make a killing! "Oh, really? Smoking this stuff will make me more worldly?!"
Although it's quite likely they'll get shut down by people angry about cultural appropriation. This city is all kinds of fucked up.
There's a pot shop up here called Electric Lettuce which is my favorite name for a pot shop. There's also a pot shop up here called Herb Stomper which is my least favorite name for a pot shop. You can't just decide, "Hey! 'Herb' rhymes with 'curb' that's a good pot pun!" I mean, you can but it doesn't make any sense. The initial phrase being punned on should have some kind of relation to weed. At least it should have some context other than complete and utter violence!
