Flavor staff offers some helpful tips for a drug-free 4/20

Christopher Schimmel

Every year my friends and I celebrate 4/20 in the most hardcore way. We save up money all year long and then buy our tickets to Amsterdam. When we get there we go on a week-long binge of wordy goodness at the Amsterdam Annual Spelling Bee.

Celebrate 4/20 the right way: with a big bag of grass.

Earth Day (April 22) is approaching, and nothing says “environmentally aware” like a plush, fertile green lawn. Your friends, especially the ones who wear excessive amounts of hemp and constantly reek of incense, will appreciate your love of landscaping and hatred of crab grass.

-It is national look-alike day, everyone wear Hollister and we can finally laugh when we wear the same thing.

-It is National Pineapple Upside-Down Cake day; celebrate and give thanks.

Why not try planting pot…s? Head into downtown DeKalb, grab some terra cotta pots and some planting soil, maybe a cute little watering can, and go to town. Plant flowers, vegetables, Matchbox cars, anything you want. It’s practically guaranteed to be a good time.

Make this April 20 a thoroughly

relaxing day. Chill out on the couch

and watch every Cheech and Chong

movie in existence. However, keep in mind that over-analyzing and attempting to make coherent sense out of them, while amusing, can cause the brain to hurt. If this occurs, light a stick of Nag Champa incense (if possible), put on Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” album, collapse into a bean bag chair (if available, otherwise, a bed will do just fine), close your
