Katt Williams
Comedian Katt Williams has endeared himself to the stoner audience with his "Weed" standup routine. Here are a few highlights:
• “I like weed - I think it's fantastic”
• “It ain’t no drug, it’s just a plant… and if you happen to set it on fire there are some effects”
• “You ain’t never heard of a motherfucker overdose on marijuana”
• “Weed make you notice shit you ain’t supposed to notice”
• “If you got kids, you gonna have to cut down on your weed consumption – it’s not cool to get high and eat up all yo’ baby’s cereal”
He also has a funny vaporizer routine: “This is Star Trek: The Next Generation right here, this is a new frontier… It’s got knobs on it… You put it on a real temperature like 375 degrees, like Jiffy corn-muffin mix numbers. It ain’t got no fire or no smoke, it just all vapor. You have to be careful because you don’t know how many vapors you can safely take. I was four to five bags in when I realized I had made a terrible mistake. You might want to find out how high you can actually get…”
