Was Carl Sagan a stoner? Or do I just not know what "baked" means?

Sagan also wrote that pot enhanced his experience of food, particularly potatoes, as well as music and sex.

I believe the kids today call this "based AF."

basking in something, certainly

Po-ta-toes! Boil them, mash them, stick them in a stew. Lovely big golden chips with a nice piece of fried fish.

I would love to see Carl Sagan and Samwise Gamgee hanging out, smoking some of the Hobbit's leaf and snacking on some potatoes.

I think Rick Steves would fit in there, too.

With Gandalf having a chuckle at his theories on cosmology.

I too find that music and sex improve the experience of potatoes.

He was so baked, he called baked potatoes as potatoes

[-] i_love_FFT@lemmy.ml 8 points 11 months ago

He loved baked beans, maybe?

It isn't meant literally. It just means he comes off as mildly baked. I also have mildly baked syndrome and people occasionally ask me for drugs, even though I barely touch coffee.
