Who thinks it would be cool if the standard suits from playing cards were changed to Pimp (spades) Bling (diamonds) Ghetto (clubs) and Homes (hearts)?

It's impossible to fight against the brilliant arguments of the pro-cannabis lobby. "Cummon... please."

We need someone who is against both. Hmm, you could pretend to be against legalizing cannabis - we would all totally trust ya.

As long as it maintained the symbolism, it would have little impact.

After a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the proposition, I have come to the simple conclusion that while it would have a certain amusement value, I really don't care either way.

Well we were thinking that Pimp would have a cup, Bling would probably keep the diamond, Ghetto would have a modified club or a gun, and Homes would have either a dillapidated building in silloette, or a little person.

Man, I couldn't survive if room tempurature was higher than my IQ, I'd die of heat exhaustion and that would not be fun.

You could fan yourself with your pimptastic playing cards.(or should that be pimptastic playa cards?)

Well, I was trying to think of a name for the cards in general, because calling them pimptastic would be biased toward that one suit, but the only thing I could think of would be to call them "money" because we hadn't used that word yet.

You should incorporate your idea into tarot cards as well

Hmm... I like this idea...

Also, it's fun to play games with Tarot decks, it's just like normal and it freaks the hell out of some people.
Its too far away

Gah never, if these cards were introduced into a game then I couldn't slip in normal cards, people would notice, then I might lose.
