We only use 11% of our brain... SOBER

[StonedWallKid]

I'm thinking when high it might be "opening" up parts of our brain that are normally not used.. It may or may not make us smarter.. but its using more brainpower...

And it makes sense... when we first start smoking its hard.. we cant really control ourselves. But after our brain has "wired" for it we get used to it

I also thought the same thing, that we still use the 11%, but u use kind of a diffrent parts.

[marqus139]

i've never thought about it like that. but i totally agree with you about being high makes us use more of our brain (creative side) and sometimes not in a positive way but we are using more. just thought i'd say that.
9 hrs and 7 minutes for me! woo hooo. peace.

Well, actually it's a myth that we only use 11% of our brain.

We use pretty much our entire brain, we would hardly be able to function with only 11% percent of our brain.

still i think we do use alot more of our brains when high since we can make a connection between basically and we see things in such a greater perspective i think they should test this either over in amsterdam or the netherlands or down at missipi state or wherever the government currently has there contract for a medical marijuana supply even if there is one but i remember seeing somewhere that most medical marijuana test go down there

[blackdahlia515]

dude. drop some acid and then tell me how much of our brains we use .

[Horus XCIII]

Umm . . . you use 100% of your brain. That's just a common urban legend.

someone with a brain viewing machine test this out

Yes the body use 100% of the brain, however, we only use a small portion of it for cognitive thinking. If we used it all for cognitive thinking we would be able to think things into existence.

[primetime21335]

We already do think things into existence... well some do (God).

I think we excercise different parts of our brain when we are high on weed than we do when we are sober.


I personally think there is a lot going on in our head that we don't even know about. I think our brain is capable of a lot more than learning complicated math problems and communicating effectively. I swear on anything I love when I'm high man... I just KNOW certain stuff that I would have never thought of/realized sober. It gives you a different perception on some things.


I also think that when you are high it puts you in a semi-hypnotized state where you are very vulnerable to be persuaded into believing things (not just by others, but by yourself).
Like, I'm having a really hard time putting it into words.... (COCK SCUKING MOTHER FUCKER WHY CAN'T I EVER FUCKING ARTICULATE WHAT IS GOING ON IN MY HEAD).

Fuck it.

WTF?

Have you never heard of the The Law of the Conservation of Energy?

[mushroomsatsuji]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_energy

Conservation of energy states that the total amount of energy in an isolated system remains constant, although it may change forms (for instance, friction turns kinetic energy into thermal energy). In thermodynamics, the first law of thermodynamics is a statement of the conservation of energy for thermodynamic systems.

Put simply, the law of conservation of energy states that energy can not be created or destroyed—it can only be changed from one form to another (such as electrical energy into heat energy).

The energy conservation law is a mathematical consequence of the shift symmetry of time; energy conservation is implied by the empirical fact that nothing depends on time itself (see Noether's theorem).

Thankyou.

I'm not a neurology researcher of any kind, but I can think of no mechanism which would allow humans to induce a large amount of bio-chemical energy into a material object.

That's because you're not using 100% of your brain for cognition. Duh.

i wouldnt rule it out though. conservation of mass got proved not to be 100% true, and energy and mass are so closley related in terms of everything... i just would put money on the energy conservation being proved wrong sometime when once we started understanding space more.
