For Those Of You Who Were Sniffing Glue 30 Years Ago…
By Mitch Berg
…I guess this is big news: Cheech and Chong decided to get the band together again:
Cheech Marin told AP Radio that he and Tommy Chong “looked at each other going, `If we’re ever going to do something it has to be now because you’re not getting any younger and neither am I.'”
They tossed around some ideas and figured a comedy tour would be “the most fun” and “the least hassle,” the 62-year-old Marin said.
Like, I suppose, man.
Marin and Chong, who broke up amid creative differences, have tried to reunite before, but have always fought too much.
scraaaaaaatch
“Creative Differences?”
“Like, I wanna do a joke about being stoned, maaaan”.
“Fuchicapesta, I wanna do a joke about being high, man!”
Marin said he thinks dope humor can be as funny today as it was back in the ’70s
Buy oregano stock. That’s all I have to say.

Dope humor can work. The diferrence is now we are laughing at them, not with them.
Man.

Laughing at them was the whole point. Unfortunately, I knew too many folks back in college who felt that should emulate them instead.
Still, they could get one of every man’s nightmares right sometimes.

“Marin said he thinks dope humor can be as funny today as it was back in the ’70s”
