Funny Taiwan: Marijuana on Handbags and T Shirts

It’s been happening in Taiwan for years now. Pot leaves are showing up in the damnedest places, and now they can be found on purses too.

  2. people just think its cool.
    they take some random thing they see in teh western culture and just think its’ cool. So they put it on t-shirts and stuff. Once people (specailly young people) see is in night markets and all over the palce, they’d just think it’s a new trend or some latest fasion stuff….

    Shat store is great! Totally reminds me of happy pizza in Cambodia. I assume there were no “Happy” foods or drinks being sold at the Marihuana store in Taiwan.

    Do you think Taiwanese youth think Marijuana is bad and should be illegal?
