Well, this is a little awkward. If you're here then that title may have gotten your attention a little bit I am sure. We're talking cannabis (or weed) friendly states in the U.S. Yes, there are some states that are pro-cannabis and all smoking both medically and recreationally. Those states are considered the "best" and most cannabis-friendly states. Well, we're down in the south so you know what that means.

In a recent report done by Happy Valley, South Carolina has been named one of the least cannabis-friendly states in the U.S. I am sure many of us are not shocked by that as we do have laws that still ban the use of marijuana. Many states across the country are legalizing the use of marijuana, but South Carolina is not yet one of those destinations. Did you know marijuana is the third most commonly used drug? Well, I can certainly believe that one. The laws regarding cannabis change almost daily. From states completely legalizing it to slight laws, it all depends on where you visit.

Can you guess some of the most cannabis-friendly states? Check out the full report here that breaks down every state and where they fall.

9 Films to Watch On 4/20

Every holiday usually has some sort of activity attached to it. While 4/20’s activity is obvious, a movie marathon should definitely be added to the agenda.

In honor of this literal high holiday, here are nine films you should binge.

Friday

A stoner classic that hasn’t aged a bit.

Half Baked

They’re not drug dealers; they’re fundraisers.

Pineapple Express

The entire cast is incredible, but Danny McBride steals the show.

Reefer Madness

Sure, it was meant as a cautionary tale when it was released in 1936, but it’s hard to watch this classic now without laughing hysterically.

Dazed and Confused

There are only three words to describe this iconic Richard Linklater film:  Alright, alright, alright.

Up In Smoke

If someone writes a list about stoner movies, and a Cheech and Chong film isn’t on the list, does the list even exist?  The answer is “no.”

Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle

Obviously, John Cho and Kal Penn deliver outstanding comedic performances, but is there a better actor playing himself in a cameo than Neil Patrick Harris as “Neil Patrick Harris?”

How High

Magic weed gets Method Man and Redman accepted to Harvard. Hilarity ensues and gives new meaning to the phrase “higher learning.”

The Big Lebowski

In addition to lighting up, fix yourself a White Russian (or two or four) as well.
