The Simpsons predicted Legal Cannabis back in 2005

Hey would you like to puff on a Reeferino ? it’s Legal here....

The Simpsons.... Always predicting the Future eh !

In a 2005 episode called ‘Midnight RX’, the Simpson family travelled over the border from Springfield to Canada following an increase in the price of prescription drugs that made them too expensive in the US. In the story, Simpson’s neighbour Ned Flanders meeting his Great White North doppelgänger, who was similar to the goody-goody Christian Ned, is seemingly all ways but one: he smokes the “reeferino.” The Canadian Flanders offers Ned a joint, pointing out that “it’s legal” in Canada. Yes, 13 years ago, the showrunners predicted what the world only got to know on Wednesday (October 17).
