Can we please be real here?
Duchess is our hostess and likes to smoke pot. Big deal, but we don't need to feel like sucking up to her for our answer.
You asked why pothead has a negative connotation?
IMO, while there are 'successful' potheads, meaning they're holding down a job, they're not super successful. If a person feels they have to smoke EVERY day (that's my personal definition), then, NO, I don't think they'll amount to much, that's GENERALLY speaking.
It's hard to have a family and need to smoke pot every day (as it would be with drinking), but the other part of it is: it's still illegal, whether you agree with it or not.
I think if you NEED to ingest some sort of chemical EVERY day, there's a problem.
