Your favorite term

[LIP]

I normally use weed or skunk on here [or the particular strain name] but when im out i normally call it Ganja or herb.

Herb is the healing of the nation

And i cant stand the word Marijuana, it's made up by a racist government for mexican workers, and has no place in the cannabis culture.

I love the word "ganja". Not only does it sound cool, it has an interesting history. The word "gāñjyā" was originally used in the ancient Sanskrit language of India for the hemp plant, and that word made its way into a lot of the modern languages of India and Southeast Asia. It was brought to Jamaica by Indian immigrants who spoke Hindi and the word caught on among the Jamaican locals. From there, it traveled to the rest of the English speaking world due to the influence of the Rastafari movement.

GotWake88, I agree with you on that. I like to say Cannabis or Marijuana, saying weed, dope, or grass seems to deface the thing that is Cannabis.

'Marijuana' is the government's slang. They succeeded in criminalizing it, partially because they called it by a colloquial term for 'lazy, jobless mexican'; and Mexican immigrants were looked down on at the time by many Americans.

'Weed' would be the most popular, but I used it so much when I was younger that it got boring to say.

Now, I always say something different. But, I usually say 'trees' or 'buda'.
