It’s been a friggin’ looooong winter at ye olde Jersey shore. My Mary Jane supply is practically nil. Sadly, I’m forced to roll teeny pinners that burn up in mere seconds upon lighting. I think I’m high, but it could just be the lighter fluid, I don’t know. Sad times indeed but like a bear living off of her fat during hibernation (is that what they do?), I’m forced to make the best of it.
Luckily I’ve found that watching copious amounts of Trailer Park Boys is practically the equivalent of getting high until some kind soul (hint, hint, Exit 63) visits me at the Jersey shore and replenishes my stash.
Okay back to the best show ever.
Now there are plenty of pot-friendly shows (Weeds, Workaholics, etc.), but then there’s Canada’s Trailer Park Boys who literally swim in the shit. (They make a driveway out of hash. Need I say more?)
The cast is adorable, the plot lines are insane and if you watch it long enough, you a. experience a second-hand high and b. almost get the sense that Sunnyvale really exists. (If it does, I’m moving there and hanging with Ricky, Julian and Bubbles.)
So stop what you’re doing and watch the clips below. (Because whatever you’re doing isn’t that important, I promise. Remember I can see you. It’s the Internet.)
Available on Netflix or YouTube.
