Culture - Cannabis and the Ethiopian flag.

Ethiopian flag colors -> Bob Marley -> marijuananana

Zergling is high and very curious; in your experience, how often do paraphernalia with the colors green, yellow, and red [or Bob Marley images] accurately identify pot use? How confident would you be at assuming someone who is wearing those things is a pot user?

Strangers aside, zergling has never seen someone wearing that stuff who doesn't smoke pot. Have you?

Zergling thought of this after seeing those colors on a pair of earbuds made by Skullcandy, which were cleverly named "Smokin' Buds". Of course, the name confirms the reference, but how often would people associate the user of those earbuds with pot use? Does anyone only associate Ethiopian flag colors with Bob Marley, and not with weed?

the flag is actually represents things.
green- New Jerusalem's prosperity and fertility
gold- all the riches the country has
red- the messiah's blood, and to show faith
the colors are also used to represent the rastifarian religion, which of course means the SACRED use of weed. if someone's flying these colors, it's saying they smoke for religious purposes, which i doubt some middle class white kid cares about spiritual connections, which really pisses swim off.... and the whole association with Bobby, looked at very distorted. people make it seem like he founded rastifari, and was all about the weed.
