Stoners need a makeover!
I've always said stoners are our own worst enemy when it comes to how the non-toking citizens perceive us. What is the first image that comes to mind when you hear the term stoner? Is it Jeff Spicoli? How about Cheech & Chong? Ok then there's a "Friday" in the title right? :D
While I wouldn't change a single thing about stoner movies the problem is many non-tokers don't get our humor. They don't 'get it', all they see is the stereotype stupid stoner and believe yep...that's it, that's how they all are. Naturally without the stereotypes the humor is not there to begin with and like all good stereotypes they are all based in truth. Also like all good stereotypes it's not the rule it's the exception.
