In his Playboy interview, Top CelebStoner Seth Rogen reveals he was once arrested for marijuana in Los Angeles, Adam Sandler is his hero, Pineapple Express sidekick James Franco doesn't smoke weed and MTV is "nightmare" to deal with and "insanely stupid."
Here are the highlights:
The Pot Arrest
"When I first came to L.A. I got caught smoking weed on a beach in Malibu and had to go to court. It was the craziest thing ever. I was thinking, We’re in Los Angeles. There are probably 400 people getting murdered at this second, and these two cops are taking an hour to write up my court summons for smoking a joint on the beach. That just seemed so fucking ridiculous to me."
Adam Sandler
"He is just one of those comics every guy my age loved when we were growing up. Whenever one of his movies came out, we felt as if it belonged to us. We went to to see Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison, and we were like, Ah, this guy is making movies for us. We're his audience."
James Franco
"James Franco doesn't even smoke weed. I hope I haven't ruined it for anybody. Franco and I have never smoked weed together. We always marvel at that."
The MTV Movie Awards Controversy
"MTV is insanely stupid. They knew well in advance what we were going to do. We sent them a script a week earlier. When they cut away in the middle of our bit, it made it seem like it was a much bigger deal than it actually was, and it effectively ruined out joke... I'm not offended as a pot smoker; I'm offended as a comedian...
 "I think they were being hypocritical. The have shows like The Real World, which is all about drinking and fucking. If that's their idea of entertainment, then our goofy little joke about smoking a fake joint should be harmless. They're documenting the lives of promiscuous young people without any of the repercussions. Not that I care. I'm not saying they shouldn't be allowed to show that. I'm just saying if that's your idea of acceptable behavior, don't give us a hard time about one stupid joint...
"MTV has always fucked us. It was nightmare doing interviews with them for Pineapple Express. We were on TRL, which thank God is over. I never have to go on that fucking show again... It wasn't even live. It was all a big lie. It was painful because Franco and I went on to promote Pineapple Express and the producers told us, 'Okay, you can't mention weed at all.' That just stunned me. The movie's about weed!. How would we even describe it? Why are we here if we can't talk about weed? That's just so silly and absurd to me. It's like bringing on the cast of the Transformers and telling them, 'You can't talk about robots'."

The program will address the pleasures of getting high, and the pitfalls, which are almost universally getting caught in possession.
If you are tired of all the bullshit propaganda about drugs and want to help strike a blow against prohibition, then please tune in and help spread the word.
And if Seth Rogen or his publicist read this, I'd love to have Seth be my guest and do a live interview on the joys of getting high.
I feel like Jesus Hitler was in worst taste then it seemed when I typed it at 3am. Also, idk if that is a website. Lastly, this was not about idioms.
Interesting article, too.
