For a minor school project.

foot cancer dude. I'm not about to say smoking anything doesn't have any harmful effects, but I'm pretty sure it won't give you foot cancer.

one of my favorite comedy lines of all time.

and bob marley died of melanoma which spread to his brain. im not sure, but i dont think smoking causes melanoma. can someone confirm that. besides, weed doesnt cause cancer anyway

he was kind of addicted to everything, but he had a speedball overdose (cocaine +heroin) and died the same way jimi hendrix did, but in reverse.  hendrix was faceup and choked on his vomit, farley was facedown and choked on it.

I wouldn't call that overdosing, because the part of the brain that controls respiratory function wasn't shut down from the drug itself (aka overdosing). He asphyxiated because he was too fucked up to roll over and puke, and drowned in his lunch.
