Are you joking? I have known a lot of potheads but am confused by most aspects of this shit
It's kinda joking, kinda not lol.
The potheads I've known over the years, the ones that aren't just smoking and enjoying it, but the ones that make smoking weed their identity, there's a degree of realism to the generated image.
That kind of pothead tends to reject the idea of dressing to conform to societal expectations, and just wear what's comfortable. They'll tend to keep snack foods around, and that will be the majority of their intake. They'll have perennially bloodshot eyes and goofy grins on their face more often than not.
And, when possible, they will buy giant bags of weed. Perhaps not as giant in proportions as the image has, but I've known people that buy by the pound rather than waste time with small quantities.
The image is definitely exaggerated, particularly the face of the figurine, but I've known a few dudes that look enough like that to make it even funnier. That kind of shit-eating grin and the impression that they're looking at another world while they're right in front of you.
Even the stringy, greasy looking hair is something you'll see on the lifestyle potheads sometimes because they lose track of time.
But the image in its entirety is a bit exaggerated. It's a cartoon version of a lifestyle pothead, kinda like the Cheech & Chong movies lol.
The text on the package is all very confusing, most of it nonsense, the face of the guy looks like a deranged serial killer and nothing like a harmless Cheech and Chong type .. wtf is the weird alien finger thing, and what are the two long items on the left? The potheads I've known don't have super dirty homeless clothes and also what the hell are the multiple bouncy ball things? One of them looks like a bowl but what about the other two? I don't see what you see here. this to me looks like what someone might dream up if they thought Reefer Madness were a documentary.
We're talking about different things, partially.
I'm talking about the overall "vibe" being close enough. You're talking about the quality of the image itself.
As far as the "homeless" clothes, I'm not sure what that means. But jeans with holes in the knees are not at all rare, among potheads or the general population. And shirts that look dirty aren't unusual either, I mean did you ever see Adam Levine back when he was on the voice? Dude's shirts looked like he'd intentionally dragged them through a landfill.
As far as the guy's face, that's interpretation. You see a serial killer, I see someone so greened out they're seeing an alternate universe. Also, Jim Breuer, as another comment shows.
I think you mean quality of the AI? The content of the image is what I'm mentioning. And yeah only the most stereotypical parts of it add up to me, at all.
His shirt has dirty spots all over it. Something I don't see except on homeless people. I never watch reality TV, so no I'm not familiar with your reference.
And I don't know what to tell you about the face. It looks incredibly deranged to me. I've been stoned and around a TON of really stoned people. None of them hit me like this. It's actually disturbing to look at. I feel like it's on purpose (as in, the original source material this came from being something trying to portray weed as evil because it will cause you to enter a violent psychosis).
Yeah, quality of the AI.
As far as the homeless/dirty thing though, I guess it depends on your life. I'm out here in the mountains (sorta, not really deep , but pretty close). The potheads I know run heavy to manual labor; farmers, mechanics, construction work. The kind of jobs where when you get home and smoke a bowl, you're still in your work clothes. A lot of people in jobs like that don't have casual clothes that aren't stained from work, so if they aren't going somewhere fancy, they just wear what they have.
Same with some of the skater potheads I've known too. They'll be out skating, sweating and messing around and not change until they're home and bathed. So they'll be dirty when I run into them.
Maybe in bigger towns or cities there's more people that will change as soon as they get home, maybe? I can't really recall from my time living in a bigger city, and the people I was around most were going to the bars I bounced at, so that's not a useful thing for this.
The face thing is perception, I guess. I just see it as comically exaggerated, it doesn't register as disturbing, even when I try to see it that way.
Kinda cool though, how the same image can work so different :)
