The two things stoners love the most are food and sleep. And as a stoner, you should be very familiar with that. Your stoner senses are very powerful. Trust your instincts! I personally think that this is the best way to tell if someone is a pothead. I love sitting in the park and lighting up a joint. Some people look with a peeved look on their faces. This is their psychic way of asking you to go over there and offer some of your joint. Weed smokers are so chill and nothing ever really phases them.
If the stoner look isn't enough for you to know if he's a smoking buddy, you can also ask your mystery person what kind of movies they are into or what their favorite movie is. Remember that stoners get over stoner-toilet-humor and sometimes like to get really intellectual.
You can see that through their movie collection or through the conversations that they have with you! Do they always wear tie-dyed clothing?
Are they a white person with dreadlocks? Are they playing hacky sack or juggling in the park? The realest way to tell if someone is a stoner is to ask them. You should use your common sense before asking.
But f eel free to ask the cute girl behind the bar. Always remember that most people will be more freaked out by you playing detective than simply just asking.

Also, the marijuana user may sleep excessively until late in the day. Bad sleep habits are another common sign of marijuana use. Possession of drug paraphernalia. Look for materials such as bongs, rolling papers, roach clips, pipes or other items used to smoke or store marijuana. Inappropriate laughter.
When an individual is intoxicated from smoking marijuana, they will sometimes laugh uncontrollably, even at inappropriate moments. Legal or financial problems. In a recent study , scientists used a combination of MRI-based brain scans to get one of the first comprehensive, three-dimensional pictures of the brains of adults who have smoked weed at least four times a week, often multiple times a day, for years.
Compared with people who don't use, long-term, heavy marijuana smokers tend to have a smaller orbitofrontal cortex OFC , a brain region critical for processing emotions and making decisions. But they also have more cross-brain connections that scientists think smokers may develop as a means of compensating for the difference in size. Unlike previous research, which has looked mainly at short-term smokers or simply at young or older users, this study is one of the first to look at pot's long-term effects on men and women between 20 and 40 years old who had smoked almost daily for between two and 30 years.
The researchers looked at the brains of people — 62 who didn't smoke and 48 who did — using three different types of MRI scans. In the smokers, these increased brain connections appeared to help them counteract the behavioral problems commonly associated with weed use, like trouble maintaining relationships or staying motivated enough to find or keep a job.
But while new connections blossom throughout the brain during the first few years of regular use, they eventually recede. Researchers saw a significant drop-off in new brain links after about six years of regular use.
So does smoking weed every day for a decade shrink your brain and make you dumber? Not quite. The regular smokers did have lower IQ scores overall when compared to the people who didn't smoke, but there's no way to know yet whether or how that might be linked to smaller orbitofrontal cortices or marijuana use in general.
