I Don't Get It

There are some things I'll just never get. Like stoner movies. I don't find doing drugs funny. And it's not that I'm severely judging them for doing it (as stupid as it is), I just honestly do not find the humor in it. Yeah, maybe the first time I saw someone high on tv I might've thought it was funny how weird they were acting (can't remember cause who knows when that was). But now, if the joke is based entirely on the hilarity of being high, it is genuinely not funny. Maybe it's a trope that has been overused or maybe it's the fact that I have never experienced it myself. Either way, it's just dumb. It seems like a cheap way to get a laugh.

I suspect if you did more drugs yourself, you would appreciate it more. But damaging one's facilities for the sake of theatrical enjoyment is decidedly stupid.

Who can remember the first time they saw someone high on television? And really, I have seen too many people high in real life to not find it funny, just sad. Although, I do love the scene in Hot Rod...
