Smoking pot causes sarcasm
The UK Guardian looks at an old study that proves pot could be the answer to peace in the Middle East. Thirty years ago, researchers at Harvard Medical School conducted experiments with a group of young men between the ages of 21-30, testing their levels of aggression after smoking marijuana.
Unsurprisingly, the results showed that their aggressive impulses diminished greatly while non-smokers reacted more aggressively to frustration. More surprising was the finding that marijuana actually caused a small increase in "sarcastic communications." Might explain my dry wit.
Anyway, if we lock the Middle Eastern leaders in a room with a bag of pot, perhaps we really could make some progress for peace.
