Marijuana Now A Schedule 3 Drug

[Beltway]

That's not the question. It's not a rebrand, the original name for the plant is cannabis. Marijuana was the invented name.

My point is about modern usage, not ancient etymology. Today "cannabis" is often used as a softer or more clinical term to avoid saying marijuana -- that's the rhetorical shift I'm referring to.

I use GROK also

Wow, you really are digging yourself into a hole.

Fine, then we'll talk about marijuana, Mr. Language Police.

Maybe Beltway needs to log off the forum for a bit and smoke a J.

I don't take dope.

Why do you think they call it dope?

Because it's dope AF obviously, bruh.

I'd imagine it would lessen the urge to complain about being the alleged victim on a road forum in the middle of the night.

Or at least smoke a C, drink a B, something to make random people on the internet stop living rent-free in his head.

Or play with the dog for a while, or talk a walk around the block.  Something.

I'm presently hanging out with my four dogs while my wife is watching a Christmas movie.  I'm throwing the ball down the hallway for two of the dogs.

Elf...which I think my wife has watched half a dozen times this month. 

I had to one of the boys away since my last reply for trying to instigate a fight with my oldest dog. 

[TheHighwayMan3561]

I've never seen Elf, but I swear it's the only Christmas movie anyone ever talks about or makes memes of as if it was the only holiday film ever.

[Max Rockatansky]

I don't dislike the movie, but any film gets old with so many repeat viewings in such a short period of time. 

Then again, Cocaine Bear is coming on soon.  That seems appropriate for this evening given the gist of this thread discussion.

I wonder what a copious amount of edibles would do to a bear...

I would put Elf in the same category as Shrek. Slightly overrated because of how memed to death it is, but still worth a watch.

Congratulations to Marijuana.

I guess

Bad Santa 2 has been on my rotation a few times as has Hateful Eight and Polar Express. I'm a little darker.

I've been to sneak in Silent Night Deadly Night 2 for the "garbage day" scene.

How would that work though? Isn't it dangerous?

Just dangerously campy:

The Peanuts Christmas Special.

If that gets to be too saccharin, then there's The Lion in Winter.

The English and Spanish languages were invented -- as were all the other ones.

The Key Bridge discussion was the victim.

Ok, so why does it matter if we use a word of Spanish origin rather than a word with Latin origin for the same plant?
