But also good for seeing how abjectly stupid some people actually are.

I don't know. Most substances that induce that kind of stupid also tend to make you lay down and go to sleep. I suspect genetics.

Are we still talking about hot chick traits?

I'd say something about being horny, but then I'd probably have to shoot myself in the arm.
