Because you literally feel like that. It feels like you went up one level, and now everything tastes better and looks better and is funnier. You suddenly understand so much more, you are even smarter (if you weren’t so damn slow at the same time). No joke is too complex for you.

And you feel like everybody who is high at the same time is on the same level as you. At this moment, you are all one awesome group of people who advanced to a higher level for a while. You have all your inside jokes and mannerisms and you all understand each other in that state. Even hooking up is easier because you are all together in this. And when you come down, you literally feel like you come down one level of reality.

Man, I bet this is why all religions talk about paradise being heaven. All those religious dudes probably got stoned from various shit and then came up with the idea of paradise being on a higher plane of existence.

    Don’t fool yourself with this one:

    you are even smarter

    You’re interpreting the world through a different lens and seeing things in ways you otherwise wouldn’t, but weed does not make you smarter. I’ve seen way too many people fall for that trap and pick up some really bad habits

        Not even probably. Definitely. It makes you SO dumb, you THINK you’re smart.

        And, that’s probably not going to sound as smart tomorrow as it does right now. Oh well 🤷🏻‍♂️

      As an experiment, one can right down their deep thoughts, plans, and revelations… then read them sober… it can be quite entertaining.

        I have a couple notebooks my friends and I did write in full of “scripts” we wrote. They’re not funny at all to anyone but us but 10 years later we’re still quoting them. “Working Dogs Of Hollywood” was a masterpiece, though.

      but weed does not make you smarter.

      I’m definitely a lot better and creative at solving math problems when high. But I’m also a lot slower lol
