The "M" Word
I hate the word Marijuana.
On here i'll refer to it as cannabis, but i call it skunk most of the time.
In England cannabis only refers to the hash, or soap. The government and Tv and newpapers all call it herbal cannabis or skunk.LIP Reviewed by LIP on . The "M" Word The "M" word (marijuana) is a ploy used by early 20th century lawmakers to denounce the evils of Cannabis; Marijuana used as a slang term by the Mexicans was used in place of Cannabis, as it sounded 'evil' and 'immoral' and is still seen as an evil word by many against it. Cannabis sounds like a friendly Latin-ized plant Pot sounds like a casual street name Weed sounds like, well, it's a bothersome weed And Marijuana sounds like the government shying away from it.
