Kirsten Dunst on Weed

April 10th, 2007 // 18 Comments

(Flynet)

Kirsten Dunst doesn’t get what the big deal is here in this country about smoking weed. Am I the only one still interested in rocking a D.A.R.E T-shirt and just saying no, in the hopes of making Nancy Reagan and McGruff the Crime Dog proud? It looks like it, goshdarnit.

Kirsten told Britain’s Live magazine: “I drink moderately, I’ve tried drugs. I do like weed. I have a different outlook on marijuana than America does.

“I’ve never been a major smoker, but I think America’s view on weed is ridiculous. I mean – are you kidding me? If everyone smoked weed, the world would be a better place.”

Um, whatever, Kirsten. It would be horrible because it would be a much fatter place. I like my starlets coked up, emaciated, on-edge and near death, thanks. She also went on to say…

“My best friend Sasha’s dad was Carl Sagan, the astronomer. He was the biggest pot smoker in the world and he was a genius.”

Oh Lord, if I had a dollar for ever time I heard the old “Carl Sagan-was-best-friends-with-my-dad” excuse…

    Why is she friends with Carl Sagan’s daughter? I mean, how did that happen? Does anyone know? Is she cute at least? I’m pictuing her dad with a wig and boobs…

  2. Finally Finally

    Wow, I knew Sasha Sagan in 7th grade, but she used to go by Alex back then. Anyway, she doesn’t look a thing like Carl, because she’s his step-daughter. Needless to say, she didn’t have his brains either; she was friggin stupid.

    If you disagree with what she is sayin bout weed and our country’s attitude toward it, you are a nerd that has probly never even blazed. A much fatter country? The fuck does that mean? Hahah loser. I don’t get the munchies at all from smoking, nor do most people who have done it a lot.

    Alex Sagan is a hot piece of ass. Dont be jealous. I went to high school with her too, and she’s the smartest chick I’ve ever met… I hope she calls me.

    oh big effin deal, I dont know ANYBODY who DOESN’T smoke the shit! If the government was smart they would legalize it and this country would be even more richer then it is now. They legalize alcohol which kills thousands everyday, you dont hear or see people dying from pot!!

    don’t worry lisa…you’re not alone. i don’t smoke, and i’m pretty sure the kids who posted in defense of it are around 20, working at Golden Chick and saving up to go to that Grateful Dead concert with their stoner buddies. and yes, i know that’s how it works, kids…i’ve dated potheads.

    Isn’t the whole point of the quote that no just hippies smoke weed? I mean you can’t get too much more straight-laced or accomplished than being a rocket scientist. I don’t smoke, but I bet a lot of successful people do that we never hear about because the police don’t bother professors and artists and writers who smoke in their own home. Just a thought.

  10. Carolina

    P.S. We were just talking about this story in my office and someone said Sasha Sagan works in tv or something, in case you care, I don’t really.

  11. kelli

    carolina: yes, people CAN be successful, productive members of society and still smoke. but in my experience, those people are few and far between. it just seems like their whole world gets wrapped up in making enough money, having enough time, etc, to smoke. although, really, i sort of agree with jamie ann…legalizing it might not be a bad thing. because while the smokers i know tend to be lazy, they’re not hurting anyone but themselves. and they’re very nice, laidback people.

    Whoever said Sasha was stupid clearly is lying about knowing her to seem cool. She is not only a hot piece of ass, she’s also some sort of genius or something. She schooled me at trivia just the other day.

  13. Juan

    PS—Carl Sagan is NOT Sasha’s stepdad, he’s her dad. More proof that whoever posted that doesn’t know what’s up.

    kelli,
    blame the losers you date for their laziness, not marijuana. almost everyone i know smokes, and almost everyone i know is well educated and bright, did well at top universities (where drug use is very common), and now works their tail off, thriving in various cities across the NE. i dont now anyone at golden chick or had ever heard of it. google told me its fast-food chicken in texas. that might be your problem, crusing the chicken joints for people to date. haha, dont blame the grass, blame the chicken!

    i know how this works, kid.

    Great point, Juan. In addition, I think most step-daughters have different last names than their step-fathers. I would assume they keep their real dad’s last name most of the time.

    Blogging is fun. Im glad can take a few seconds to do this on one of my fancy computers at work, and dont have to wait until i get home from Golden Chick to post stuff like Kelli. Weed is good.

    Bull…. when weed is used responsibly and in moderation, it isn’t harmful. (Like alcohol!) I know tons of responsible, normal people who like to indulge once in a while. Have you ever been to British Columbia? Everyone smokes weed, its the culture there. Its not just hippies, its EVERYONE. They’re doing all right. All the negative things about pot are just made so much worse because it is completely unregulated. When I was in high school, it was so much easier to get our hands on weed than it was to get alcohol. More regulation could keep pot out of the hands of kids.

    Our drug policy is so screwed up; only in America could marijuana be classified as a Grade A illegal substance.

    I’m so with Kirsten on this.

    The relative intelligence (or whatever qualifier you wish) of people who smoke weed will follow a normal distribution just like everything else. We can likely all come up with real live examples of the burger-flipping go-nowhere pothead and the rocket scientist/neurosurgeon pothead. This proves nothing. The question is how does usage affect the individual (which will vary widely), how does it affect society at large, and do draconian drug laws regarding it do even more damage than none at all.

    I *will* say that before you die, one thing you should do is get super high and have sex with your spouse/partner. (but not if you would endanger your health from pleasure overload)

    I’d do it with Kirsten if she asked, although she’s not on my list.
