Rumor has it that the evil geniuses behind this amusing pastime grew tired of the possibility of being thrown in jail every time they hit Lake Shore Drive on the way to work with a trunk full of pot. So they put pen to paper and conjured up the idea of a \u201cWeed Pack,\u201d which the corporate hounds of humanity would then sell to the stoned masses and donate all of the proceeds to furthering the marijuana legalization movement in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Mmmmmwwwwahahahahahaha!<\/p>\n<p>The second the news of this highly spirited, new lease on marijuana advocacy crossed the desk of the Cannabis Now editorial department, we knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that our duty as journalists would not be fulfilled if we did not immediately order a deck and give it a proper review for all of our loyal readers to consider. It was to be a difficult assignment \u2014 of that we were fully aware \u2014 but with the assistance of <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/tag\/blue-dream\/\">a few grams of Blue Dream<\/a>, we would emerge to tell the tale of this novelty and, who knows, perhaps even bring an end to marijuana prohibition for the generations to come.<\/p>\n<p>We received a package in the mail a few days later labeled \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/existentialreviews.com\/tag\/hidden-compartment-pack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Exploding Kittens<\/a>,\u201d which, admittedly, caused our cards to get lost in the shuffle for a few weeks because the staff was convinced that the box actually contained the self-combusted remnants of once cuddly felines. It wasn\u2019t until I showed up to shake down one of the editors over a gambling debt that I happened to peek inside and notice that our cards had, in fact, arrived.<\/p>\n<p>Game night was on.<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t take long to determine that <a href=\"https:\/\/store.cardsagainsthumanity.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Cards Against Humanity Weed Pack<\/a> is just as amusing as the original. For starters, the game comes complete with five custom rolling papers, which, if you\u2019re playing correctly, should be twisted up with a high powered sativa \u2014 something chock-full of laughter \u2014 and passed around the room during each round.<\/p>\n<p>Once the game begins, you will notice, much like we did, that the phrase combinations are reminiscent of the days when <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/?s=cheech+%26+chong\">Cheech &amp; Chong<\/a> stereotypes reigned supreme \u2014 a time when blunts, Cheetos and conspiracy theories were an integral part of any group of dedicated weed fiends getting red-eyed and catatonic on a Saturday night\u2026 or on a Wednesday. This is perhaps the most refreshing element of the game, as it calls attention to the lost art of wasting time, allowing folks to just sit around with an arsenal of weed while showing off the slapstick habits of their burned out ways. Amen! Our only complaint: the game is a bit limited (only 30 cards to add to the 600 cards in the classic version).<\/p>\n<p>But you\u2019ll be too high to care.<\/p>\n<p><em>Originally published in Issue 29 of Cannabis Now.\u00a0<\/em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/print-digital-magazine\">LEARN MORE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>TELL US,<\/strong> have you played a cannabis-themed board game?<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/game-review-cards-against-humanitys-weed-pack\/\">Game Review: Cards Against Humanity\u2019s Weed Pack<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\">Cannabis Now<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nRead More: <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/game-review-cards-against-humanitys-weed-pack\/\" target=\"_blank\">Game Review: Cards Against Humanity\u2019s Weed Pack<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the summer, the Chicago-based company behind Cards Against Humanity released a specialty version of the popular party game dedicated to all of the \u201chorrible people\u201d out there with an affinity for marijuana.
