I bought a bag of Easter grass at the department store. You know, those little brightly-colored strips of plastic that you put underneath the candy in an Easter basket?
On the bag in huge print -- bigger than the brand name -- was written, "Warning: For decorative purposes only". I thought, Well duh. What other possible use could you make out of strips of brightly-colored plastic? What else could you use this stuff for?
And then I started to wonder, Am I being naive? Are there people who smoke this stuff to get high or something?
