Holidaze

1) A term used as slang referring to April 20th. This day is recognized by the stoner subculture as a day on which you should consume copious amounts of marijuana. April 20th became this unofficial holiday because of its numerical representation, 4/20. This number coincides with the time of day widely recognized as an ideal time in the afternoon to consume marijuana, 4:20 pm. 2) The state of being in which people find themselves in soon before, on, or soon after a major holiday. It involves feelings of confusion, anxiety, depression, and rage.
