Answers & Breakdown

1. ✅ HIGH – Believe it or not, there really is a strain named Gary Busey. It’s chaotic, intense, and reportedly unpredictable—just like the man himself.

2. ❌ LIE – The tongue has taste receptors, but there’s no special endocannabinoid one just for high flavor detection. (Would be cool though.)

3. ✅ HIGH – This exists. California continues to be the Florida of weed. The machine was part of a novelty campaign in LA.

4. ✅ HIGH – A guy really did marry a bag of edibles during a cannabis expo. It was weird, legal, and widely documented. Love is love, man.

5. ❌ LIE – “Couchlock” is a slang term, not a scientific one. It shows up in user reviews and stoner conversations, not formal studies.
