I broke the fourth wall a bit in this one. At the time, all the daily strips I knew were family friendly (newspaper strips, this was pre-internet), and so there wasn’t a lot of pot smoking.
But Randall is such in his own world, that he would be the one to step outside his own strip.
And I must’ve been on a roll, two major characters in one week.
It’s funny that I’ve never really been a stoner, nor really enjoyed the experience (I didn’t inhale, of course), but I appreciate it, and find Randall’s good natured stoned existence to be irresistible.
Marijuana never did much for me (not that IÂ :ahem:Â ever inhaled, mind you). But I certainly knew plenty of people who enjoyed it, and I often enjoyed their company and the silliness which ensued. To be fair, there were more than enough times when they bored or annoyed me as much.
