Remember kids, no chooming and no boofing or you’ll never amount to anyth… oh wait.
That group of teenagers from 1979 smoked pot?!? How is such a thing possible? [*clutches pearls*]
Reefer madness!
In 1979 my “Choom Gang” were in the USAF….Obama is 3 months older than me. It was 1979….🤷♂️
Being a weed smoking teen in the Midwest in the early 1980s, Hawaiian bud was the first “sinsemilla” I ever saw, and I only saw it once. Must have been nice living there.
Something something Cyberpunk
Not exactly …
Choom, sometimes also known as choomba or choombatta, is a “**Neo-Afro-American slang that means a ‘friend or a family’ member**,” according to the tabletop Cyberpunk 2020 game.
“Of course I inhaled. That was the point.”
Don’t ever sleep on Barry O
Yo David. What’s up choom.
wonder who all the other guys are and where they landed
Kickass president, he can smoke whatever he wants.
Shoulda legalized when he had the chance
He was Barry Obama back then.
Wonder if any of those people thought one day, one of them would be President.
What *wasn’t* slang for smoking marijuana in the ’70s?
1979 SWED – got it
Obama is more transparent about it while Clinton never inhaled. Easier owning your truth
OMG! Someone at university did drugs! 😮
I spy a trekkie.
>”Choom” was slang for smoking marijuana
No way. Are you sure?
It’s funny when I think Presidents are always much older than me, no matter what age I am. For reference, he’s only 5 years older…we in fact could’ve been at a school, at the same time! And what magnificent thing have I done…when I haven’t been stoned?!
I call bullshit on this, I’m Hawaiian and have never heard that term for smoking. I bet Trump made this shit up, a Choom is English for gentleman back in the day. And the tree in the middle of the cake is a Hala tree or screw pine not weed.
Barack Oganja
Some redneck zerobombed the thread , lol , what a loser
It was Hawaii, they were teenagers, it was normal. And it’s 2023, and I can’t believe we are talking about it…like it is a thing.
Got news for you. EVERYONE did that back then at college. Even in deep red states.
That’s fine, as long as he doesn’t wear a tan suit.
He was the “token” black guy.
MF was in edgerunners the whole time ?
Littering and…. Littering AND..???
So in the game cyberpunk 2077 the reason why they called each other choom what they were actually were calling each other was Bud
Dude throwing the Vulcan salute wrong. Thumb extends out.
I just want him to hand me a J, just so I can unironically say “thanks Obama”
Don’t sleep on Barry O!
If an immigrant ever admitted to using marijuana, they would forever be banned from immigrating to the US, yet many US presidents used marijuana.
He should of legalized it.
nothing cool about a politician who uses drugs, then imprisons others for doing the same thing.
fuck. that. guy.
Yeah so cool. Meanwhile, so many people were imprisoned for possession under his administration. Fuck Obama.
