I've smoked weed pretty much every day for around 25 years and I don't think it's "cool" whatsoever, and people who make it their identity and act like it's some counterculture act of rebellion are the most insufferable losers on the planet. It's federally legal in Canada now which has basically removed all the "coooool maaaan" shit from weed and just made it like having a beer, and it's the best thing to ever happen to it. Maher has always been a smarmy douche, but he didn't become a nasty boomer until recently. I used to be able to enjoy his show and the movie Religulous but now he's unwatchable.


ksaMarodeF

See example: Snoop Dogg, Willy Nelson Bill isn’t anything special.


profile-i-hide

I think both of them would not smoke if an addict asked them not to or if they know it was going to effect someone else's health or safty. I'm an alcoholic but it really hurt me when Stevo said bill wouldn't not smoke. I been smoking since I was 14 I'm 28 now and I couldn't imagine smoking knowing there was a baby or pregnant person in the same 100ft from me, let alone 2ft in a room. Such selfish egotistical thinking.


Admiral-Thrawn2

Yea steveo just said that one a clip on this sub. He went on Tyson’s hot box and he didn’t even smoke but bill refusedb


Sweaty_Man_Whore

Bill who?


RenegadeOfFucc

Bill Maher? The dude we are talking about lol


Sweaty_Man_Whore

Im so dumb. Mb


Inky505

100 ft lol that's like smoking on the front porch while a pregnant chick's in the backyard. Probably further. Give me a fucking break 🤣


Omar___Comin

Ive smokes every day for the past 130 years but if I heard there was a baby somewhere else in the continental US I wouldn't smoke it's just common courtesy


jdooley99

I've been smoking everyday since grade school but when I get the munchies I don't eat because I know there are starving children in Africa


ImmortalBeans

I smoked weed since I was in the womb, sold spliffs in my dads urethra. But one of my brothers said it made his nose itchy so I never smoked when he was within 6 feet.


[deleted]

Meanwhile some little shit was just born in South Carolina, god fucking damn it


profile-i-hide

I honestly was thinking 100ft was the size of a semi truck


Trent3343

Shitting on Bill Maher is hot AF right now, bro. All the cool kids are doing it.


3rdLion

It says more about Candace than it does Bill.


Femboi_Hooterz

I was 16 and dipped out of a smoke sesh because my buddy thought it would be cool to bring his 10 year old brother with us. Dude's such a self centered douche


TigerRaiders

He was trying to show us who he was for years and we finally figured it out; a giant douche bag


Leucopaxillus

I have several friends that moved to Colorado for weed, they became the weed. Utterly impossible to have conversations with them about anything besides dabs or bong smoking competitions


Lecanayin

Wait, there is bong compétition??


idk-about-all-that

Literally called “Bongathon” too, it’s been going since I think the 70s. I was invited as an artist for a couple years like a decade back


Leucopaxillus

Idk knows whats up


Hahafunniee

Fucking sign me the fuck up for a “bong smoking competition”


Leucopaxillus

Look up Bong a thon, some of associates are smoking competition groups, some local some across the US


[deleted]

Yep some people weed is their life.  So weird

I was like that when i was 13 and first discovered smoking. I'm almost 40 now though.


TheKinkyYolo

Yea I feel that, It went from "cooooollll mmmmaaaannnnnn" too I need a j before I can eat.


[deleted]

Yep.   I use cannabis frequently, but don't think it is some flex and would easily refrain from using it if a guest wanted me to.  We are literally talking about an hour 


Pinkumb

> I've smoked weed pretty much every day for around 25 years and I don't think it's "cool" whatsoever, and people who make it their identity and act like it's some counterculture act of rebellion are the most insufferable losers on the planet. This is the correct opinion on marijuana legalization.


joeitaliano24

Yes! I am a daily smoker and it’s not something I’m exactly proud of lol, I try to hide it from the world as best I can. I keep my love of the Jane to myself as best I am able


OhtomoJin

Why hide it? That's kinda odd makes it feel like shame is involved


Hahafunniee

People don’t like the smell


dsm1995gst

I’ve noticed that either the weed now smells much worse than it did in the late 90’s, or it just smells worse when you’re not actually the one smoking it. Not sure.


joeitaliano24

Because society shames it, even if it’s legal, there’s still many people who feel very strongly about it. I have a house now though so I no longer give as much of a damn. I still don’t want kids walking by to get a huge whiff of weed though


goochstein

if you hide it I've found the natural paranoia leads to social anxiety, just a heads up. It's not the same for everyone but it can happen


cygnusloops

It’s on her. Steve-O recently said he wouldn’t go on the podcast because not smoking was a deal breaker for Bill. Owens has the autonomy to say, “can’t go on if you’re smoking while I’m pregnant”.


electricDETH

I enjoyed the movie Religulous, but hated him. Lol. He's such a douche.


JurassicParkTrekWars

Man, when I visited Canada and hit the dispensaries I was absolutely shocked at how simple and easy it was. I live in a state with incredibly lax laws but I definitely prefer the Canadian method. Walk in, ask for weed, swipe your debit/credit card, get weed, leave. Some of them didn't even need to see my ID? I mean, I'm clearly in my 30s but it's highly illegal in OR not to check ID.


[deleted]

Haha they're definitely supposed to check but I feel like over time everyone has stopped caring so much. All the "sky is falling" scenarios didn't come true in 2018 and people eventually realized it wasn't a big deal at all. People are still respectful about it, they don't just start hitting bongs at a school bus stop to prove some kinda point.


ExtraViolinist5207

Steve-O asked him not to smoke out of respect of his 15 years of sobriety (at the time) and Maher refused, leading to Steve-O not coming on the show. Maher said it was a “deal breaker”.


SaabiMeister

Which is quite absurd... how did he manage on the TV show? He doesn't smoke there does he? Honestly, I really don't know if he does lately because I find him intolerable.


mocxed

Maybe Steveo just isnt interesting enough for him


PuroPincheGains

A legit new reason for legalization that I hadn't heard before, but so true. 


CplFry

I watch that shit on “The Ocho!”


merryman1

>Maher has always been a smarmy douche, but he didn't become a nasty boomer until recently. Someone posted that clip from Steve-O the other day talking about how Maher invited him onto his podcast but refused to accommodate for Steve-O's sobriety by not smoking in front of him, when even Mike fucking Tyson was happy to make that compromise for him. Really spoke volumes about what a self-entitled douche Maher is.


9for9

I mean I don't like Maher, but it's not like Steve-O was on his show and Maher was smoking in front of him. Steve-O requested Maher not smoke if he came on the show Maher declined not smoking and Steve-O declined appearing on the show. They were both right. Maher didn't want to interview him enough to honor the request. The whole thing is a nothing burger.


[deleted]

Yeah, when I'd just read the headline I assumed Bill sat there blowing it in Steve-O's face like "what are you gonna do about it". Still kinda lame that he couldn't take one hour off from his gimmick when all these other pods would, but nobody was done dirty here, they just agreed to disagree.


cannabis_vermont

Flap brim hat gang.


lol1231yahoocom

Smarmy douche. Best description.


Own_Assistant_2511

110% agree


TARPnSIPP

Sincerely, me.


ddust102

Well written and I completely agree!


Unfounddoor6584

It was unforgivable for him that people on the left criticize him or didnt see him has cool so now hes going to become another right wing hack.


tapirexpress

Your counterculture comment reminded when my nephew felt he was counterculture for living with his pregnant girlfriend and not getting married. Someone tease him to marry her would be counterculture so he did.


theresabeeonyourhat

Eh....I was a fan of "Politically Incorrect", and used to watch his HBO show on occasion, but his standup has always been fucking terrible. When my brother was in college, his roommate put a standup of his on, and as bad as Jay Leno's Bill Clinton jokes were by 2000, this mf'er's jokes about George Bush was worse. This dude has always at least kinda sucked


CiabanItReal

His bit about married men and comparing them to indoor cat's is pretty good.


LossforNos

He used to get really upset about old people fucking, like not comically, but actual visual disgust on his face. More than once on the old Politically Correct show.


NormanBatesPNW

it’s people like him or those people who walk around reeking of pot smell, that give people like us a bad reputation. i myself, have been smoking it everyday for over 10 years and yet, nobody seems to know because i know how to be normal, and not a jackass. it’s like people need to be told that nobody cares that you smoke weed.


000TheEntity000

Smug narcissist in action. No surprise here


Itscompanypolicyman

Steve-O declined Bill’s invitation to be on because he’s been sober for 16 years and Bill refused to put the blunt down for his taping.


Awful_McBad

It was actually Bill who declined, he said it was a "deal breaker"


MarionBerryBelly

Steve-O wasn’t going to risk his sobriety for Bill. Bill just declined first. It was pretty mutual imo.


Itscompanypolicyman

Ooooh. I must have misinterpreted Steve-O.


Kopitar4president

Well it was "Hey I don't want to be on your show unless you don't smoke" and "I'm not going to not smoke" so just mutually unable to agree on the terms.


Pennypacking

From that thread, yesterday, the general consensus was that it had worked itself out fine, it’s what Bill does on his show and that Steve-O just didn’t go on, not that big of a deal. I wonder why all of this sympathy for Candace Owens? Why would she go on this show while pregnant, it’s not his first episode, she knew what to expect.


tries4accuracy

That was posted just yesterday iirc


Drink_water_homie

bill is that one old dude that just discovered weed is legal and you can smoke it without getting in trouble


YolognaiSwagetti

that's just straight up nonsense, he's been smoking his entire life.


FocusDelicious183

She’s dead, wrapped in plastic


[deleted]

They don’t dabble in reality only ideology. Bill made fun of Biden this weekend. Thats why the hive is all up in arms with their pitchforks.


Brave_Example_8658

You are delusional lol


Numeno230n

Who the fuck actually cares about that? 1/2 of Biden voters this coming election don't even like the guy. Maher has always been a douchebag and honestly the "Hive" is mad at Bill because he was insensitive to Steve-O about his sobriety. Which, that's fair I would defend Steve-O before getting into an argument defending Biden.


theresabeeonyourhat

I doubt he could even get arrested in Singapore for weed. Being around him for more than a few minutes is torture


satanssweatycheeks

I mean I hate Bill for many reason but he has been smoking while you where in a ballsack. He was smoking weed back when it could legit ruin your life and put you in prison (which sadly some states are still doing that). So ironically you sound like one of the people in middle Tennessee who thinks it’s legalized because you saw a delta 8 CBD store. Bill sucks. For lots of reasons. But dude has always been a stoner. Still shitty of him to do this.


Far-Whereas-1999

More like he’s your typical rich geriatric narcissist who has become a slave to his impulses. Affluenza. It’s very uncomfortable for him to not be able to act on his substance impulses. Can’t manage it around an addict or pregnant lady.


turbodude69

Bill is one of the reasons weed is even legal. he's been a huge weed advocate for longer than most people in this sub have been alive. he's been on the [advisory board for NORML since the 90s.](https://norml.org/about-norml/norml-advisory-board/) i understand everyone loves to jump on the bandwagon when someone does something controversial, but you guys sound like a bunch of uninformed crybabies. i don't even like bill maher, i don't think he's funny, and he's always been a prick. but it's HIS podcast. steve-o and candace owens are guests. they can ask him to not smoke, but he doesn't have to say yes. but again, bill maher is a huge asshole. *he's always been that way*, that's his schtick. the fact that everyone here is shocked and outraged, says a lot about the "snowflake" culture this sub pretends to hate when it suits them.


[deleted]

He can obviously do whatever he wants on his show and people are allowed to call him out for poor behavior.  You can put the bong down for an hour. It isn't hard


lawngdawngphooey

> He can obviously do whatever he wants on his show and people are allowed to call him out for poor behavior. You can put the bong down for an hour. It isn't hard I don't think having clearly-defined boundaries is "poor behavior." It's cool that Steve-O is sober, but where a lot of recovering addicts get kinda narcissistic is expecting others to alter *their own* behavior whenever they're around. Nah, bruh, addiction is a *you* problem. If somebody ripping a bong is going to cause you to relapse, it might just behoove you to just not go places where people smoke weed (like Bill Maher's show).


[deleted]

What the fuck is with this Bill Maher shit here lately? I'm not interested in this egocentric manchild at all. Is it some sort of promo or what.


Drink_water_homie

steve o had mentionted him on his podcasts someone posted the clip here and now here we are, this is the 3rd post ive seen about maher this week


beerpancakes1923

Drink water homie has been drinking vodka instead

oof...man i WISH kids online were still only at that level of obnoxiousness.


WhiskeyDikembe

It is the perfect name for his podcast, it’s parallel to his tropey hack bullshit.


Background_Brick_898

who gives a shit jfc


Cosmicmonkeylizard

Nobody. I’m sure the same people criticizing bill have never once said a positive thing about Candace. It’s just a bunch of fake ass outrage. Probably because bill dared to criticize Biden recently. These far lefty’s get a hard on for anyone who doesn’t fall in line with them. Authoritarian liberalism is a new thing and it’s fucking bonkers. It’s kind of a paradox because you can’t really be liberal and authoritarian. Liberalism died years ago.


funcogo

Two narcissistic parasites who get way too much attention


Normal-Ordinary-4744

Yall keep posting about them, you guys drive up the attention


anothersaltlick

Do you people think Bill is surprising the guests with smoking weed in front of them? They are choosing to be on the show knowing Bill will be smoking weed


aidanpryde98

Holy fucking shit I can't believe it!! This is outrageous!! Who the fuck came in Candace Owens?!


2k1tj

She went to the sperm clinic by the ihop


Objective-Giraffe-27

I know plenty of hippie chicks who smoked throughout their pregnancy. I wouldn't personally like my wife doing the same, but honestly their kids turned out fine lol.


RolandmaddogDeschain

She knew what show she was coming on. He does this in every episode. If she doesn't like it that's her fault!


KYlaker233

Guarantee that won’t be the worst thing her kid is exposed to in its life.


fbastard

If you're going to smoke; it is only polite to not do it around those it bothers. Seriously, he couldn't wait 20 minutes to light up? People just aren't considerate any more.


red_assed_monkey

he could literally blaze up like 10 minutes before his guest shows up. 


[deleted]

she could not be on his show, its not a secret that this is what happens on it.

Bill Maher is a POS


Hutnerdu

So is Candace


BGenocide

Id argue she's the bigger piece of shit


letseditthesadparts

Why do I feel like I’m going to see more news of this than actually people carrying about pregnancy mortality. In the words of Lil duval “what we fake caring about today”

Come on guys, she's going to survive and so is the baby. She inhales more harmful toxins everyday just going outside than in this whole podcast.

NickChevotarevich_

This will have no impact on her baby. There is 0 reason to worry about this.


Dull-Presence-7244

Seriously people are so up in arms about this but she could have refused the interview if it bothered her. Being around someone smoking once isn’t going to do anything. It chronic exposure that can be detrimental.


DlphLndgrn

Literally. This and the Steve-O shit yesterday is nothing other than people love to hate on Bill Maher.


slugma_brawls

i mean, it's bill maher. it's easy to hate him. but while it's inconsiderate, it's not going to hurt the baby.


Someday_Later

She’s just giving birth now. She’s not mother Earth now.


UrVioletViolet

I love those gals!


BillNyeCreampieGuy

I like Real Time. And I appreciate how much Maher goes after both sides of the aisle. But holy shit is he a smarmy, pretentious cunt.


wonderwall999

Yeah. Disappointed that Bill has gotten so insufferable. I'm sure years/decades of being told that people love your point of view will make a person that way.


One-Joke8084

She knows that he is going to smoke herb while they talk-if she doesn’t want to be around it she could just reschedule. I think she’s a dumbass for going on his show while pregnant though…

I'm more intrigued by the thought that somebody actually wanted to stick their dick in Candace Owen.


MsMoreCowbell8

Lighting up next to a pregnant woman & an addict in recovery who asked for him to respectfully abstain for an hour or so, out of his life, is peak 'OK Boomer!' *"No one's making me change my wicked ways because I'm so cool! ;) ;) ;) Am I right!? Am I right!? I smoke weed like a teenager!"


shootymcghee

Poor kid


BackInThaDayz

😂. 1. She could’ve left or not shown up at all. 2. Second hand marijuana smoke does nothing to a pregnant woman or her unborn child. 3. She chose to do his show knowing he’s a smoker but instead of thinking about her child she chose clicks, views and a pay check was a better for her.


Federal-Childhood743

Second hand marijuana smoke does nothing to pregnant women or unborn children that we know about*. FTFY. Marijuana is still a schedule 1 drug so it is very hard to do studies on. Up until VERY recently we didn't think there was anything wrong with second hand cigarette smoke but that turned out to be entirely untrue. We do know that weed is bad for developing brains. All pot heads also know that second hand smoke can get you really fucking high. What's not to say that having it in the bloodstream would affect the unborn child? This is coming from a pot smoking ker who is very pro legalisation. I truly think that it is the least harmful mind altering substance on the planet. That being said I also don't dillude myself into thinking it is harmless. It is most certainly not harmless.


BackInThaDayz

😂 she sat next to him once while he was smoking. He never got boxed her 😂 Go wipe off your vagina. Might develop a yeast infection.


doctorDanBandageman

What? I’ve never gotten high off secondhand smoke. You’d have to sit in a small bathroom and hotbox the shit out of that to maybe get a contact high but you’re not going to get “really fucking high” by being next to someone smoking


MarcusSmartfor3

Boy will light it up in front of anyone at anytime lmfao


BrayoP

Not negotiable.


EFTisLife

I didn’t even know this man was a smoker until I started to see shorts about him smoking when Steve-O asked him not to to respect his 16 years sober, and now in front of a pregnant woman. I wouldn’t associate him with smoking when he’s is just being an addict in public. 


Final_Acanthisitta_7

Steve-O is mad.


Most_Present_6577

Candace ownens hopes she gives birth to a mentally incompetent child


Temporary_Salary_265

Has Maher tried kava? It’s gives good euphoria but without smoke.


dtqjr

With a mother like her, that child does not need any more possible hurdles to overcome.


New_Brother_1595

This is dangerous as the baby might ingest the devils lettuce and get into phish

There is nothing worse than privileged boomers who grew up wealthy. They somehow have this need to seem “ cool” and spew nonsense people would ignore if they weren’t famous/wealthy.

Gullible_Penalty_335

Isn’t Candice owens that girl who doesn’t care about other peoples 1st amendment right? I’m pretty sure she committed theft by stealing a protestors sign, and then a police officer had to recover it, WITHOUT CHARGING HER WITH A CRIME….


ActiveWeb2300

The most harmful part of this is the tobacco wrapper it's in. Women throughout time have smoked while carrying children and it's perfectly safe.


Muhammad_Is_Poop

There is essentially a 0% chance that this does anything hinder the development of Candace Owen’s child…..


hugsbosson

Tim heideckers parody of bill mahers really captures how big a douche he is.


slickbillyo

I believe he also gave Steve-O shit for asking him not to light up around him because of his sobriety and from what is seemed, Maher was a dick about it. Not that surprised, dude’s whole schtick is being an asshole.


fufairytoo

To be fair, I don't think a child of hers stands a chance anyway, so there's that...


SloppyTopTen

But he's a total pro-Genocide guy just like Shapiro. And he supported canceling the students who supported Palestine.

patmur46

Am I supposed to get mad at Maher about this? Sorry, but unless you can demonstrate his guest objected it's not deserving of commentary.


paulysoftware

He smokes on every show. I’m sure his producers made this clear when she accepted the booking. The choice to expose her child to second hand weed smoke was hers.


Any-Video4464

I like weed as much as anybody, but Bill always doing this during the show when he even admits himself he doesn't smoke much is funny. He's like a high school kid that thinks he's cool by smoking weed, but its become about as mainstream and normal as it gets. It's kind of dumb. Light one up if your guest wants some too...and share it! Otherwise, just wait a few minutes and enjoy it after the show. He just looks like an old dude trying to be hip.
