Study: Pot Smoking Damages Brain Function

[Wedgebuster]

From my observations it seems to debilitate the assholiness function of the brain immediately, and keeps it in check for an extended period of up to 24 hours.

Other effects are from much more subtile to unnoticable.


These are not undesireable effects.

Beer, wine, and sudafed are all processed. Only one of the items listed isn't.

The simplicity of pot isn't much of an arguement jelly.

Really? Because that's a big reason you can produce beer and wine at home... but, not hooch.

Bullshit.

So does a shock therapy.

Glad to hear that works for you, how often you go?

[89Hen]

Glad to hear that works for you, how often you go?

Every other Friday and holidays.

You're wrong, Hen, again. You're a pot smoker and we all know it. It's like masturbation, we say we don't do it, but........

Oh Hen used to smoke it. So did I.


Then we grew up.

No, you used to smoke, then you got captured by the Conk Machine and started goosestepping your azzes to the Corporate Mantra into lame Conkitude where you sh*t on everyone else, lie, and rake in the bucks.

Alright, you win.

[blueballs]

Meh... I smoked weed daily for 30 years- good shit too as some here can attest- and it didn't stop me from getting my degree, winning in softball, succeeding in business, marrying and staying married to a great wife, etc.

Weed is like catnip. It affects all of us differently, some more than others.

[Skjellyfetti]

OUTLAW CATNIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So....apparently I'm the only person on this board who hasn't smoked pot?

Good to know. At least I've never had to worry about failing a drug test

[Skjellyfetti]

We grew up.

No. Y'all had kids. Which made you crotchety, uptight old fucks.

No, you're not.

Not a controlled experiment. Therefore no cause and effect inference can legitimately be made. Doesn't matter if the researchers are "Harvard affliated" or not. Case closed.

And people really should stop even doing studies like this unless they are going to clearly state that, at best, the results should only be viewed as suggesting that a controlled experiment should be conducted. Instead, a very aggressive cause and effect statement is made.

As I've said many times before: I love science. Science is a wonderful process. But scient-TISTS are becoming more and more of a problem due to their absense of discipline.

I stopped smoking pot at 23. I didn't have my first kid until 32.

Try again.

[Grizo406]

My brain is just fine, and I'm still the best fly fisher-person that I know of, in this part of Western Montana!

The study didn't cover swine.

I have smoked plenty of pot in my day...and never had to worry about failing a drug test. Ever.

That's what I was thinking too. A high percentage of chronic users are self medicating for conditions like ADD so they are going to naturally test worse for mental function. Besides the list of sheer geniuses who smoked blows this study out of the water. Carl Sagan felt it helped his intellect.

And people who smoke cigarettes for 80 years and live to 100 doesn't mean cigarettes don't cause cancer.

Cancer is easier to study than intellect. If you still smoked you might be smart enough to understand.
