What the, it's really not that hard to understand. I guess marijuana really does make you dumber FOR YOU GUYS! J/k
He's saying that at first you may become slightly "dumber" but after your body gets accustomed to the change, you start to function normally as if you were sober (well almost anyway).
I think it definitely makes you slower, but not dumber.

thank you for understanding, you to mike jones. I was started to think it was making me dumb

Cannabis can affect your short term memory. Maybe thats why some people fall under the myth that it makes you dumber.
Personal experience tells me that it makes you smarter.

Cannabis enhances your nervous system, increases blood flow to the brain. Studies on IQ show that doing something differently will make you smarter. Now...when youre high everything seems different. To me this indicates a good possibility that cannabis can be used as a tool to learn beyond the constricts of a sober mind.

I usually learn or study a lot better high ................... that is if i cant pay attention long enough or not fall asleep but that a problem even if im not high

Thats funny I'm just finding this out recently. It feels like every time i get high i just kinda learn a little more about functioning in the "high world" some of the stuff caries over from the sober world but you still have to figure stuff out again, like driving, when i was a beginner smoker i had to learn to drive high, it was pretty hard but now i can do it no problem also when i started my thought processes were more slow and cloudy now I'm pretty much as fast as I am in sober life. Except I'm more creative and it makes my fucking job so easy (im a telemarketer)


Anyways I'm high, so if that didn't make any sense then fuck you!
