Terms like <i>4:20</i> or <i>tea</i> or <i>green</i>. "Euphemism" seemed to match the original intention. But then as people added to the list, it became more a list of synonyms mixed in with specific marijuana varieties and code words. And as Old Hippy says, we were just having a little fun. This isn't Wikipedia after all. It's just a bunch of stoners talking about weed. The goal was to create a list of terms people use when “marijuana” is unacceptable or inappropriate.

They are not euphemisms. Thats like saying an Acura a euphemism for a car. Also I don't think you know what a euphemism is. Weed, Dope, and Hairy Mexican Stink Balls doesn't sound more appealing than marijuana. Also some of these have got to be made up or codewords between friends. If someone said "lets go some some pasta", Id be inclined to think he is a tard. Pizza?! And if you gonna include doobie; where is cone, sweet, long-beach (blunt with the outer paper carefuly removed), baseball bat, pinner, jay, and hog-leg? Most of these are just types of weed.
