It says some fisherman see better in the dark because they smoke cannabis mixed with tobbaco

Skunk? Spliff? Cannabis, Pot, Marijuana, Mary Jane, Kif, ? How many names for this stuff are there? I realize, the Kif thing is for a combination of it and tobacco.

Mix a bit of shredded carrot in with it as well and it makes speed.

I read the thread topic as "Cannibal gives Night Vision"


Anyway, the combination probably just makes your eyes dialated; thus makes it easier to see in the dark. So smoking does have some benefits. Interesting.

"This just in! Fishermen too demotivated to fish after smoking cannabis to improve their nightvision!"

"Fisherman 1: Well, we can see for literally miles out here in the dark. Whooa, wow, look at my hands!"

"Fisherman 2: My hands are out of this world too man. Oooooh, fingers."

Not as bad as ADD medication... when you don't have it.

Edit - It being ADD

Night Vision Goggles give nightvision, as well.

A friend of mine stole someone's ritalin. After smoking dope. And taking a few Pro Plus (caffeinie pills) He had the largest pupils I have ever seen in my entire life.
I don't cane much but I've never felt particularly "night vision" when I do...

 

[Bad^Hat]

I didn't actually do it, but someone at a friends party tried his medication (wasn't ritalin, something just a tad less potent) and kept taking tons of it throughout the night. It got to the stage where he'd just sit there looking completely dead, you'd wave a hand past his face and he'd follow it a few seconds afterwards :S

 

[el Chi]

Very silly. But sounds funny at the same time. Did he see pink Christina Aguilera monsters too?

 

[CrazyHarij]

Meh, I'll just stick to eating shitloads of carrots.

I had a friend with ADD. It was like she was high all the freaking time. Scary.

ADD = attention deficit disorder. The person is hyperactive not high

hahahhhaha good one :thumbs:

I tried mixing marijuana and ADD meds a few times... my friends and I called it "FOCUS" because it made us incredibly focused on whatever we were doing. It was interesting, since you normally can't do that when you're high.

youre thinking of ADHD the H is for hyperactivity

 

[CptStern]

yes sorry for the mistake...you're right

My guess is its just the ADD meds countering the drugs. unless you can prove it was 'more focused' than just ADD meds :-P
