Why Pot Makes You Hungry

by Chris Hardwick on April 17, 2009

Hey Weed Warriors! Thanks to the upcoming 420 holiday, you’re probably going to have scientific questions. Anticipating your interrogative state, here’s a groovy video of me explaining the “whys” of the pot/hunger connection. Well…just the one “why,” really. Apparently this video was shot in the 70s, when I worked for the DHARMA Initiative.

Love the video. What is it about pot these days Chris? Everyone is talking about it. I made a legalize marijuana video and it became one of my more popular ones. Maybe it’s time to legalize it!

I think my two years of pot smoking in the early nineties is the reason I had a small spare tire around my waist. I was a skinny bean pole up until those months of constant pot smoking. It must have been all the Twinkies and Doritos after midnight that really helped me pack on the extra 15-20 pounds. I remember that faithful night that my friend and I stopped smoking weed. We looked around and realized that for the past 18 months we hadn’t done anything worth two shits except zoning out while watching “Billy Jack” on VHS.

I used to smoke Marlboro’s and lots of pot back in 1991-93. It was the thing to do while you were in a band constantly playing clubs in Minneapolis. On our off nights we would still smoke up and instead of actually playing AD&D, we would just make characters and talk about playing. It was a complete waste of time. No offense to all the pot smokers out there, but I think it’s one of the stupidest thing in the world to do to a persons life.

I don’t drink, smoke or do any sort of drug, hell I don’t even ingest caffeine any longer. I’m not a health nut, but I think those things only shorten your life and hell I want as long of a life as I can get.

Thanks for the memories though. I couldn’t agree with the video more. I would say, even though you were being funny, that everything you said was absolutely true. Thanks again.
