Chrissy didn't deserve Adriana.

[@prtk_m]

Its the exact opposite. The tragedy is that they both were inevitable for each other. Adrianna having roots in the mob and falling in love with a young hotshot mafioso. But by getting attached to that Mob life, you risk your life, which ended up being fatal for her.

It's hard constantly talking like Seinfeld when spending the majority of your life in Louisiana....Im convinced you guys are fans because he makes jokes we would all make with our friends...some would say hack

[@BrianMMIX]

My favorite scene is from the episode Boca... at the end... when Tony does the right thing... and has to get wasted to deal with not killing the coach... and when he stumbles home... and Carmella is taking care of him... and he tearfully rejoices... "I didnt hurt nobody" its a beautiful insight into the conflict of being a criminal but wanting to be a "good person"...

1:10:45 The government doesn’t regulate the weed. States governments set limits for purchase and such and the product has to be tested which is done by a 3rd party not the dispensary or the governmental agency. Plain and simple… weed has just gotten a lot better. Some people can’t handle their shit. C’est La Vie.

Also, the weed is grown to be of higher potency, THC wise, probably losing some other cannabinoids in the process, that could also be contributing. But yeah, don't smoke a blunt like you could in your hay day and everything's gonna be okay 😂
