How stupid one acts typically isn't related to the quantity of cells that compose their brain but the general behavioral patterns and relatively little knowledge they've picked up. I think the reason some people act like retards while high is because they try so hard not to look like retards every day but when they're stoned they forget how to do that or just feel more comfortable being their true dumb selves. The fact of the matter is that the claim that cannabis decreases mental abilities is not upheld by any credible scientific research.

If you've been getting less sharp than you used to be, you shouldn't blame it on a plant. It's up to you how to manage your time, and if you spend more of it smoking and less of it reading that's what you can expect.
ermitonto Reviewed by ermitonto on . girlfriend hates weed...help! ok so we've been going out now for almost 2 years. i didn't really smoke weed when we first started going out. i had smoked but not regularly. now that i'm away at uni i've started smoking a lot more, just because i can and i have a lot of friends in residence that blaze with me. So my girlfriend says she hates it when i smoke because she hates to think i'm making myself stupider. I try and tell her that a lot of things kill brain cells and that smokin some weed isn't that bad but i can't Rating: 5
