i've always seen both terms as just kind of the same thing. someone who would skip class to burn never do there shit on time and just generaly lazy.

To be honest i don't call myself a stoner or a pothead but i deffinently tell a lot people i smoke weed atleast once a day and to most its ussaly a big shock. I kind of like how everyone has this misunderstanding of weed smokers because i get to stick it in there face when i get good grades or anything the like and then i pull my joint right out in front of them.. damn good feeling
