: Y’all ain’t gonna believe this. MediaTakeOut.com learned that there is some chick whose parents named her Marijuana Pepsi Jackson. Yes, you read that correctly.
How’d she get the name? Well here’s how the Milwalkee Journal-Sentinel is reporting things:
[Marijuana's] mother, Maggie Johnson, picked her name. Her father objected but lost the argument. To this day, a lot of family members and best buds call her Pepsi …Not sure we believe the “we were hippies” excuse. It sounds like her parents were just STRAIGHT UP GHETTO.The newborn's mother and father were products of the post-Woodstock era when reefer was rampant. "And they would cool off with a Pepsi," she said, which makes you think it's lucky for Sawyer that it wasn't Coke instead. "I thought it was crazy," her aunt said about the name, "but they were such fun-loving people that it suited them."
Well apparently Marijuana’s doing O.K. with her life. The 36 year old woman earned her master's degree from Georgia Southern University and is currently working as a substitute teacher at a variety of Beloit, Wisconsin schools.
I really don't think parents think about how a name can effect the child later in life, say when they are applying for jobs. In a world where you get discriminated against for having a Black sounding name, why would you want to go and name your child after a drug? That is even worse! People are funny.
Immediately I thought it was a joke, a prank or something that MTO has pulled out their azzes, but as I kept reading, the more I began to really truly take note as the truth! ..Wow!
Why didn't they just name her Mary Jane, Ganja, Joint or even Rolling Papers?! Still has that same effect.. Marijuana Pepsi-- FCUK OUTTA HERE, but I am glad to hear that she didn't let her name stand in the way of her studies. That's whats up!!
WHAT'S UP MARIJUANA?! ..ROTFLMAO
well thank goodness she is a nice looking woman~ SHE WOULD HAVE NEVER MADE IT~ and had she had any since she would have changed it. Her parents should have been beat. Just imagined how it sounded when she walked across the stage to recieve her masters* MARI= JU=ANA PEPSI JACKSON. I WOULD HAVE shook my head till it rolled off, had i heard it first hand.
@TexasGlamourChic~~ Yeah those ass/holes live right outside of Philly!! They were bying the little bastard a birthday cake and wanted the lady in the supermarket to put the little bastards name on the cake when she refused they low lifes made a big stink about it! Shortly after that the kids were taken from the home bc of the living conditions.
@nautysgirl~~
You said~ MY BLACK PEOPLE WE MUST DO BETTER....CAN YOU IMAGINE THE EMBARRASSMENT THIS CHILD IS GOING TO FACE THROUGHOUT THEIR SCHOOL YEARS LET ALONE AS A ADULT.... ************************************************
I said~ Got Damn seems like you've been dibbin and babbin in marijuana your damn self!! The Lady is 36 years old!! Graduated college!! What story were you reading Sweetie!! You got to do better ya damn self!! Practice what you preach!!
@WhiteManLove-LMAO and CONGRATS ON BABY #2!!!
@TOPIC-SHE IS TOO LATE MY COUSIN HOLDS THE TITLE TO THAT NAME MARIJUANA. HER NAME IS "MARIJUANA GADDIS" AND SHE HAS A BROTHER NAMED "COCAINE MOTHERSHED"!!!THEY ARE 3RD OR 4TH COUSINS.I DON'T KNOW WHY THEIR MOMS NAMED THEM THAT.I KNOW THE CLOWNING WILL START. BUT, IT'S OK THEY ARE USED TO IT. BUT, THEY HAVE GREAT JOBS, NICE HOME AND FINISHED COLLEGE.THEY ARE WELL EDUCATED REGARDLESS OF THEIR NAMES!!!
roll a blunt, put your pepsi in the freezer and smoke out! by the time you remember where you put the pepsi, it'll be nice and half frozen... mmmmm! tastes soooo goood! LOL
pepsi would so make a fortune if they do away with the cherry pepsi and make a marijuana flavored pepsi! omg! i'd freakin orgasm on a sip! LOL
Her parents should be ashamed of themselves. If I were her, I would have legally changed my name to something like "Mari" and dropped the Pepsi altogether.
Nice looking woman; I'm glad her name doesn't seem to be holding her back but it sounds like she's about to start job-hunting since she just got her masters. So now might be a good time to head to the courthouse...
@DQC = IN CASE YOU WEREN'T AWARE
Suitesuga304 = STORMZOE
SHE GOT SLOPPY LAST NIGHT AND REVEALED HER MASK. YOU'VE REALLY BROKEN THIS CRAZY BITCH (LMAO!!!) SHE'LL PROBABLY KEEP COMING AT YA WITH DIFFERENT MASKS BUT WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS ONE.
HEY SuiteStorm...I see you! Hanging out with the "Crabs in a barrell". LMFAO!!!
@TexasGlamourChic-Seriously, I am not ashamed or worried about what anyone has to say about their names.As far as them working twice as hard, they both say they have never been turned down for a job,but they both work very hard and not struggling or wanting for anything.So, both of them are doing WONDERFUL JOB maintaining a job with their F@cked up names!!!!
Thats the most nonsensical name i've ever heard. With all the Dateline documentary on how black people are being judged on their "black sounding" and ghetto names which is not resulting in job interviews, you'd think people will get the message. No wonder in some places you have to get permission from the government to give names to your children. If she reach far in her career with a name like that then god bless her.
At least
Mary Jane Coke RUMela VODKAsha L'SDelia Jackson made something of herself. And not to mention she is not bad looking, but I agree with whoever said it would be very hard for her to get a job. If looks are a first impression, then your name on the application is definitely a very first impression. I understand her keeping it b/c her parents gave it to her and they did not do it to be malicious.
Now if they would have named her Ima Hogg, like some girl's parents did then I would change it.
WOW
1. I bet she gets randomly drug tested every month
2. There is a girl in houston named Marijuana Bush who will argue you to the death if you call her Marijuana because her name is prounounced Mar-juana...ps[SPAM]h that takes the cake
3. My exes ex girlfriend is named Toshiba and she has a brother named Hitachi
4. I also heard of a girl named Titania
5. Marijuana Jacksons little brother's name is Cannabis Fanta Jackson.
6. Substitute teacher named Marijuana?? I mean I have substituted learning for Marijuana so this makes sense.
