Pot-smoking, certified Olympian God proves that winners smoke weed too.

(Note: The author neither smokes weed nor condones its use.)

Kudos to Michael Phelps for being "stupid" enough to let a picture of himself toking a bong be taken. (Can you imagine the size of bong hits that guy can take with his swimmer's lungs!) To all those who say, "Smoking pot makes you a looser (sic)!" I say, "Michael Phelps smokes pot, and he won more Olympic gold than any other human being in the history of the Games.

That's really weird. As far as I know, the word "marijuana" did not appear anywhere on this site (prior to this post). "Singer" might be in there somewhere. "Peter" was probably not to be found here.
