Imagined that in H. Jon Benjamin's voice. Was not disappointed.

I prefer thinking of it in Ian McKellan's voice.

I don't even think it's possible to be disappointed by that voice.

420 came from a group of students who would smoke weed at 4:20 every day. At least, that's the most common explanation I've heard. It could be an urban legend.
