I went to Amsterdam once with a group of language students from all over the world. Long story short, we ended up in a coffee house and these two Japanese girls started scarfing down the brownies like no tomorrow. Somebody else starting rolling a joint and the Japanese girls were fascinated, asking what it was. They were shocked to learn that it was marijuana! I didn't keep track of what happened to them the rest of the night. Later, I talked with another student who was a lawyer from Istanbul and she swore she had no idea what was going on when we walked in there.
