"Ten weird signs that you are highly intelligent, according to science" 
- Intelligent people don’t necessarily do the most intelligent things – and large-scale studies have shown that more intelligent children are more likely to consume psychoactive drugs as adults.

  • Ummmmm.......I was a teenager in the 70's and that's ALL I'm going to say on this subject. :)

  • I can't agree more. I had a job at a concert venue where major rock bands appeared. Aerosmith, the Stones, Grateful Dead.

    It doesn't tell you to be still using such substances. Maybe the really intelligent ones dropped it. Hmm. I haven't seen the researches behind this one and cannot tell. ;-) I do not count myself into the one who have used these drugs, as I only have tried hash twice in my life, and it never did me anything good. Mhmm.

  • I'll just say my most recent use was of the sticky bud variety and all else was confined to last century.

    Hello SH:

    I take issue with the word "illegal"...  It's a fancy pants word that means whatever the user WANTS it to mean..  Drugs were legal BEFORE the drug war, and they'll be legal again..   Therefore, in terms of the Constitution, using drugs was NEVER illegal.

    Look..  We don't wonder whether murder should be legalized.  If we're gonna take someones liberty it better be for crime like that..  Taking their liberty for possessing a PLANT, is unconstitutional, wrong, stupid, HURTS our country, and WILL be made right..

    I take it, it will be according to current laws when researches were conducted. Don't take these questions for more than they are, and they certainly aren't about political related issues. If substances were legal, the definition would have to be changed. No biggie.

    Hello again, SH:

    The other questions in your list don't tend to be political..  But, this one surly is.

    It's all about perspective and how you look on the series of questions. I posted it in the light category not to make it heavy political or religious discussions, at least from my side. Feel free, should others have the desire to discuss this issue with you on a political level. :-)

  • I played with some in the late 60's but wasn't impressed at all. I've had a medical card for marijuana for years and now it's legal here, so I just smoke my grass. Really helps my Meniere's disease a lot.

    Guess the grass in the survey would be looked at as illegal. However, I'm not sure about the full definition used in the researches behind the claim as I have not been looking deeper into them. :-)
