When I was about five, our neighbors got busted for growing Marijuana. While we where watching the police take the guys away, I asked my mom what they'd done. She said that they’d been growing grass, meaning the slang term. I, not knowing anything about marijuana nor slang, was both scared and confused. I got scared thinking, "We're growing grass" and then confused when I thought "why are they arresting just these guys, almost everyone has grass!"
