I know many people who get smoked up regularly, some of them are normally very intelligent and well-spoken people, but without exception, after a bowl or two, become jabbering idiots who don't realize they've become ranting morons.
Are you sure your talking about MJ and not Alcohol? When you consume alcohol, you become stupid. You say stupid crap, and you become a jabbering idiot. Now bare in mind that this is the NORM I speak of, not the exception. With MJ, what you describe here is most definetely the exception. Most people become almost silent, and when they do speak, they may say something annoying or lose their train of thought and forget what their talking about, but thats not what you described here. Another thing that could be annoying is when you address someone after they've smoked, they may ignore you, or it takes more to get their attention off whatever their attention was on.
Out of all the people I've ever known, only a couple act like they do when their on alcohol, which is what you described, and those people only acted like that the first few times they smoked it. Perhaps you know more then a few like this? If so, your friends most definetely defy the odds. I think its more likely that these "friends" of yours are drinking and getting high, and you can't differentiate the effects. I just have a hard time believing what your saying, when this is BY FAR the exception. People respond differently though, so you should bare it in mind that these few people you know doesn't classify you as an expert.
