I read varios posts and see the term "420". What does this mean? I am sorry if this sounds uneducated and naive. But I never heard this term until moving to the Norfolk / VAB area.

Thanks

Perhaps if you showed or quoted what posts / threads you refering to it would be easier for people to help you.

420 is the universal sign for smoking marijuana

See, I thought it was the number of times the anteater has bent over for the domidong so far.

You should see his arse. It's so loose by now it's like a furry train tunnel.

Oh, Mr Floofy-first LaT and now my mum-you keep wanking to the thought of women who would never touch you-maybe going blind will finally ease your sorrow and pain.

I thank you for the information. I guess since I don't do drugs such as Marijuna I haven't run into the 420 reference before. Perhaps too old or just stayed with alcohol and porn and such.

Thank you again. I am always open to hearing from potential friends and acquaintences, dominants who want to use me and others.

Um, nope.

According to my kids, it is in reference to 4:20 in the afternoon. The time when kids all over America are out of school, and can light up a joint. Presumably this is also the "in" time to do it on weekends, holidays, and in summertime, etc.

I don't know how or when this particular time of day came to be known as a special time to get high (as opposed to say, 4:10, 4:15, or 4:30, etc.) but my best guess is that it goes back at least ten years, based on how long ago I asked them about it.

Urban legend holds that it began as a California police radio code for persons smoking marijuana, and was embraced by the counter culture.

Wikipedia (great and highly reliable source that it is) is on dd's side-it even lists the specific high school the term came from. I don't have the energy to assess its sources though.
