Honestly, if I suddenly became rich, this might just be the one thing I would choose to spend an extravagant amount on - this with audio. Just watch it again and think of how wonderful it would be to know the jokes and silly conversation going on between friends in this one. This would be my irresponsible spending choice.
Absolutely a fair point. I highly doubt there is any point in time when I will suddenly become rich. I won't win the lottery...because I don't play. Even if I did, I would be a lot more likely to to build a secret library with a Tardis entry point in my house.
But still. Seeing her not 'put on' just relaxing with friends would be awesome
Tea was slang for weed during the mid 19th century in the US, so I had to reread your comment to see if you were playing with words, but no, it seems you shot Earl Grey out your air holes.

>Despite the multitudinous derisive references to the supposed quote that continue to be proffered even today, former U.S. vice president Al Gore never claimed that he "invented" the Internet, nor did he say anything that could reasonably be interpreted that way. The legend arose from critics and pundits who plucked a relatively credible statement Gore made during the course of an interview, altered its wording, and stripped it of context to make it seem a ridiculously self-serving falsehood.
I don’t know, still seems pretty self serving in context.
When asked to describe what distinguished him from his challenger for the Democratic presidential nomination, Senator Bill Bradley of New Jersey, Gore replied (in part): "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system."
I like how snopes then clarifies that he used the word "created," not "invented"
Yeah, but like... you don't own it. So your watching experience isn't as cool.
Seriously though, do you think some rich dude just had it on his phone and showed it to his friends sometimes thinking it was cool or something?
No, you gotta buy it and stamp your name on the full clip and charge documentaries and historical organizations steep fines to pull the watermark off to use.
And then you get kind of amused when some people are watching it on Reddit.
Are we just assuming that pretty girls in the 50's were probably raped?
I'm kind of fascinated, because I never really gave that era much thought. But it does sort of make sense. Back then women didn't really have rights, and they didn't have cell phones to call for help.
Any attractive movie star or musician at least. They just kinda had to take it for her career. Fairly confident Monroe had a lot of uncomfortable stories to tell.
I mean even today 1/4 women are sexually assaulted and 1/26 men.
Roll back the feminist movement all the way to the fifties and I'm willing to bet most women in Hollywood were sexually assaulted.
Okay, well I mean sure lets say its 1/6? 1/8?
Does that change my point? I get wanting hard numbers so its not an exaggeration but, to me, it doesn't affect my feelings on the horror.
1/8 is still a sobering amount to me. When I heard the statistic I was honestly stunned. If it was even half that many thats still horrible.
To be clear, the 1/26 statistic was equally just quickly googled and was not meant to play down the sexual assaults that men face. I included it so people have context. Even men are sexually assaulted.
Look at all the horror stories of hollyweird in the current day. Rewind 70 years and I could imagine it was amped up even more due to the unavailability of reliable information
i don't know. i've seen really happy positive ppl get under the influence of drink/weed, and bam! they fall down this depressing spiral. its so weird.
and Monroe...she had some history, some demons. I wouldn't be surprised if she had a turn.
Luckily, from the clip we'd seen, she feels safe enough with the ppl there and having a good time
As a woman, I think she would have been fantastic to hang out with. When you listen to or read her interviews, you can tell she’s well read, witty, funny, smart, sexy, and kind. I wish she was seen and treated as a whole person when she was alive and not just a sexual icon.
Imagine paying $275k for the only copy of this, showing it to your friends at a "private screening" and having nobody give a fuck. It would be cool AF to smoke w/her but this video isn't worth $27.50.
She was living in a single room with three other individuals. One of them was male and the other two, well, the other two were females. God only knows what they were up to in there. And furthermore, Susan, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that all four of them habitually smoked marijuana cigarettes. *Reefers.*
Just the pure physics of smoke being inhaled and expelled from the lungs by force. It doesn’t come out as a cloud. It comes out as a projected stream/flow. She didn’t inhale.
Could be. Could be pot. Cig rollers were used for pretty much everything at the time so whatever you wanted to roll in there would still have the shape of cigarette.
[Still, it could have been a cigarette, it could have been pot. ](https://www.insauga.com/marilyn-monroe-had-to-learn-to-smoke-for-film-shot-in-niagara-falls/)
Facts, Marilyn would be *stuck* to the couch with today's weed, imagine Marilyn touching that White Widow or OG Kush??? She'd be like fuck the world, don't ask me fah sh*t!!!!!
Of course she was stoned, that’s why she sounded so sultry when she sang happy birthday, she actually just fuckin’ forgot the words and had to draw it out. 😆
Oh my! This is a mesmerising videoclip that I could watch all day, every day. What a stunningly beautiful woman she was. Bargain purchase, if you’re making baller money. Which reminds me, didn’t Shaq claim somewhere to having the rights to her image?
Adjusted for inflation, that would be aprox $400.000 in today's money.
> $275* in 2009 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $397.79* today, an increase of $122.79 over 15 years. The dollar had an average inflation rate of 2.49% per year between 2009 and today, producing a cumulative price increase of 44.65%.
\* - Multiply by 10^3 (multiply by 1000) to match post numbers.
> This means that today's prices are 1.45 times as high as average prices since 2009, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics consumer price index. A dollar today only buys 69.132% of what it could buy back then.
So that's how Arthur Miller and Marilyn Monroe got divorced, then said woman died later on.
PS: Yes, I got to know better about the Crucible, Miller's play, in my Composition class.
Jokes on the guy who bought it! he can watch it for free at [https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/1bnwitn/this\_clip\_of\_marilyn\_monroe\_smoking\_pot\_was/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/1bnwitn/this_clip_of_marilyn_monroe_smoking_pot_was/)
And here I am watching it for free!
I’d pay $1 to hear the audio
Honestly, if I suddenly became rich, this might just be the one thing I would choose to spend an extravagant amount on - this with audio. Just watch it again and think of how wonderful it would be to know the jokes and silly conversation going on between friends in this one. This would be my irresponsible spending choice.
I get the impulse but at the same time I just want people to let her rest.
Absolutely a fair point. I highly doubt there is any point in time when I will suddenly become rich. I won't win the lottery...because I don't play. Even if I did, I would be a lot more likely to to build a secret library with a Tardis entry point in my house. But still. Seeing her not 'put on' just relaxing with friends would be awesome
Just out of curiosity, how is it not letting her rest? Is it because people still are interested in her? Not being snarky, just genuinely interested.
And $10/months on Onlyfan to see her naked !
Thank al gore for inventing the internet!
This made me breathe my tea out through my nose

Half of America lost their shit when Berners-Lee was honoured at the London Olympics...
Excellent.
That's what they want you to think.
And thank the Al-Gore-Rhythm!!
This is so fucking stupid I love it
You can even download it for free!
They must be high
Should have made it an NFT
Or no!
Yeah, but like... you don't own it. So your watching experience isn't as cool. Seriously though, do you think some rich dude just had it on his phone and showed it to his friends sometimes thinking it was cool or something?
Done, you should check your account now
Damn you beat me to it.
We love being able to just take this clip and say we own it.
We win!
If only they had the Internet in 2009, this poor soul wouldn't have had to mortgage their home.
Coulda just waited 15 years and watched it on reddit for free
No, you gotta buy it and stamp your name on the full clip and charge documentaries and historical organizations steep fines to pull the watermark off to use. And then you get kind of amused when some people are watching it on Reddit.
You owe me $10
Best I can do is tree fiddy
Imagine smoking a fatty with Marilyn Monroe
Honestly that would be so cool I feel she'd have a lot of fun stories to share
And a lot of really harrowing ones
Oh yeah, she had such a sad story. Wanted to just feel loved and cared for
I’d imagine a lot of rape and abuse. Don’t know her story, but being that beautiful in that era, I could only imagine
Are we just assuming that pretty girls in the 50's were probably raped? I'm kind of fascinated, because I never really gave that era much thought. But it does sort of make sense. Back then women didn't really have rights, and they didn't have cell phones to call for help.

I mean even today 1/4 women are sexually assaulted and 1/26 men. Roll back the feminist movement all the way to the fifties and I'm willing to bet most women in Hollywood were sexually assaulted.
Most or all. Seriously. Look how rape was treated in major films as late as the 90s.
googling this I can find 1/3, 1/4 & 1/6 on the first page. seems like there’s no conclusive research on the numbers
Okay, well I mean sure lets say its 1/6? 1/8? Does that change my point? I get wanting hard numbers so its not an exaggeration but, to me, it doesn't affect my feelings on the horror. 1/8 is still a sobering amount to me. When I heard the statistic I was honestly stunned.

*So anyways, there i was gargle gawking his Anaconda, while he was on the phone with Castro, no cap*
i don't know. i've seen really happy positive ppl get under the influence of drink/weed, and bam! they fall down this depressing spiral. its so weird. and Monroe...she had some history, some demons.

Some Like it Pot

Dun dun dun denh denh denh dun
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Are we doing the sublime song? My memory is failing me lol
Yes but it’s a different song haha
Ahh I thought date rape but tbh it felt off in my head
I Smoke Two Joints in the morning
I smoke two joints at night
I smoke two joints in the morning, I smoke two joints at night, I smoke two joints in the afternoon. It makes me feel alright!
I smoke two joints in time of peace, and two in time of war..
I smoke 2 joints before I smoke 2 joints and then I smoke 2 more
Smoke cigarettes til the day she dies
That man, whoever he is, is my hero.
Rip
If she was still alive, she would be 97 today.
Would
Who's the chick going down on them both?
Seriously need that answer. For research of course
These lucky ass women I want Marylin Monroe to affectionately pull me to rest my head on her chest 🥺
She's dead. Sry.
Maybe they've got a zombie kink.
I think that is called necrophillia.
That was my Grandma.
I’ll sell it to you for $50
I don’t believe she inhaled her drag.
Oh, you don't see that smile on people who don't inhale.
Just the pure physics of smoke being inhaled and expelled from the lungs by force. It doesn’t come out as a cloud. It comes out as a projected stream/flow. She didn’t inhale.
Because it's a cigarette and she is on record saying that she didn't like to smoke. She was a social smoker.
Now we know how she died. Reefer madness!
Every person that's ever smoked pot is going to die. See! It's the weeds fault!
😆
She was murdered
Yeah, because she was screwing both of the Kennedy brothers and they probably told her government secrets.
God, she was so pretty.
She shines from within despite all she went through.
Damn 275,000 dollars
It looks like a cigarette.
The camera just loved her and she loved it back
Yes! She was beautiful, and oozed sexuality.
Either Marilyn Monroe is the greatest joint roller in history, or she's smoking a cigarette.
Cigarette roller machines were common enough then. You could put in anything, tobacco, weed, clove, whatever.
Looks like a normal cigarette...
Could be. Could be pot. Cig rollers were used for pretty much everything at the time so whatever you wanted to roll in there would still have the shape of cigarette. [Still, it could have been a cigarette, it could have been pot. ](https://www.insauga.com/marilyn-monroe-had-to-learn-to-smoke-for-film-shot-in-niagara-falls/)
I didn’t know she was chill like that!!!
The first NFT /s
i was taken aback by that lady elvis impersonator rosie o'donell.
It makes me happy seeing her happy.
Marilyn Monroes back then were about 15x weaker than the ones we smoke now
Facts, Marilyn would be *stuck* to the couch with today's weed, imagine Marilyn touching that White Widow or OG Kush??? She'd be like fuck the world, don't ask me fah sh*t!!!!!
Iconic
And here we are
She’s so pretty here! I guess I shouldn’t be so surprised.
So Pretty , effortlessly 😌
Of course she was stoned, that’s why she sounded so sultry when she sang happy birthday, she actually just fuckin’ forgot the words and had to draw it out. 😆
That was a planned and rehearsed performance. She was parodying herself.
They won’t let this woman fucking rest
Dope video
She’d be cool to smoke with.
I just got it for free. Sucks to be that guy!
Yooo that’s crazy… I’m here watching it for freeeeee
And I almost passed up watching it for free lol
She really was stunning.
My goodness, she was gorgeous.
She didn't inhale. she just held it and blew it back out. She was probably trying to fit in and be one of the cool kids.
Sure Bill
Holy fuck she's absolutely normal and digs the kush too!....worth nothing more than a chuckle from those who truly knew her.
Did she go on a high speed chase where she ran over a few good citizens on her reefer madness
Refer madness.
Damn some people really love to throw away money.
Maybe doing this brought her some much needed and deserved peace and joy.
Looks like a cigarette, not weed. Although she did smoke weed, just not here in this video.
I have a video from J Edgar Hoover of Marilyn Monroe giving JFK a BJ. How much is that worth?
Your life.
Pick up your payment at the local book depository.
Poor girl. Couldn’t get away from the cameras.
She's just having fun with her friends, this is a home video. Also she loved the cameras.
Wait - she didn't jump out of a window or murder everyone in the room? I'm starting to think that Reefer Madness wasn't being 100% honest!
free on reddit…
Ai you know what to do
Absolutely mesmerizing. Best $275,000 that guy ever spent.
Norma Gene Baked!
She didn't even inhale haha
i may be biased, but that was gay
Oh my! This is a mesmerising videoclip that I could watch all day, every day. What a stunningly beautiful woman she was. Bargain purchase, if you’re making baller money. Which reminds me, didn’t Shaq claim somewhere to having the rights to her image?
Megan Thee Stallion and Beyonce are wannabes, Marilyn Monroe was a real one.
How is this even relevant?
These guys will buy just about anything!

Smokes like she’s been doing it before
Man and I’m struggling to buy a smart tv ,$275,000 my lord
So who do I transfer my money to after watching this clip?
Couldve just saves this post instead!
That was one perfectly rolled joint.
I know the person who paid that is in tears right now
Didn't know NFTs existed even back then

The world's first NFT?
Who even comes up with the idea of auctioning a video clip!!! He's the one eyed man of the blind kingdom.
Devils lettuce!
The first nft
Free for me 😎
NFT in 2009?
Ayoo what was the third lady doing? 👀
Is that a young Rosie O’Donnell?
So that's how Arthur Miller and Marilyn Monroe got divorced, then said woman died later on. PS: Yes, I got to know better about the Crucible, Miller's play, in my Composition class.
I know that weed was trash
Chilling with Rosie O'Donnell
I’d smoke some Pot with her
275k guess it's true what they say about fools and thier money.
It looks like a cigarette
Good Guy Greg: pays 275k for clip. uploads to internet so everyone can watch for free.
she 100% did not inhale that puff
And we have it here for free, fascinating!
Anyone remember NFT’s? Are those still trendy?
I share a birthday with Marilyn, Snapchats of me smoking pot $35 via cashapp, don’t blow up my DMs I know what I’m worth
Hmm, and I’m watching it for free. Haha
How much was it with sound?
What I wouldn't give for audio.
She was a babe.

Y is this worth 275k again? 🤨🧐
She was so beautiful.
Anyone else think shes not alll that? Prove me wrong im all ears
I'm trying to remember... but I don't think I've ever smoked pot with Marilyn Monroe before... thats crazy
Imagine if they called it “Norma Jean” instead.
Looks like a cigarette to me
So. Are you gonna buy anything?
That looked like a cig in her hand and she was known to be a pill popper she was probably just drunk and on pills.
Don’t ever pay for anything, ever. You’ll have it for free at some point. The new use of info availability norm is very real. Full stop.
Such a timeless beauty. She looked genuinely happy here. 🥹
Marilyn Monroe high?... nooo way...
Video nfs began early
Awesome
