Interesting wiki on 420, having grown up in California, the original meaning that I remember for 420 was the time the group who originally made up the saying would meet to smoke marijuana. Seems like the saying would go, "4:20, not a minute late, still daytime, not quite night, hurry up and give me a light".
It is a much talked about saying out here. I remember someone once thought it was police code for marijuana, someone else thought there was 420 different ingredients in marijuana and so on and so forth. There used to be a site that listed all the myths around the number. The wiki is probably right in current times as I've noticed a lot of "rebellious" teens with shirts that say 4:20 on them, so I guess it has become part of culture over the years. Most of the schools out here, have banned the shirts since it gives the teachers/principals reason to wonder if the student is using marijuana at school.
I always liked Kayden, used to be a regular member on Suicide Girls in 2006-07.

You are correct in your assumption about the term exotics4me. However, the stated above term of cannibus culture is what the coined term has basically become. It's comparable to many terms that start at as one thing then become a consensus for a whole topic. I've seen 420 used for so many different things involving marijuana. One example: being from the Detroit Metro area, in Ann Arbor (University of Michigan's campus) they have a festival one day a year where marijuana is essentially allowed to be smoked around the city with demonstrations everywhere called 'Hash Bash'. And you guessed it, it falls every year on the date 4/20 :)

Interesting info on 420. Thanks for sharing. I confess I had never come across the term until I tried to find more about the model and the 420 Wikipedia article showed up in a Google search. I'm guessing it's widely used only in English speaking countries. I'm certainly not a weed expert so I mentioned it in my comment in case someone as clueless as me was intrigued by the site name.
Regarding Kayden, I browsed her MySpace blog and I got the impression she had somehow been "expelled" from Suicide Girls a couple years ago for reasons she didn't say or I didn't see.
