Wanna hear my high thoughts?

Of course you do, cuz if you clicked this thread, you're probably high too.
I've been smoking this...idk what. It's chronic, but idk what strain. I'm gonna call it orange kush cuz its a kushy high and tastes like oranges.
Anyway, I was sitting outside smoking, just thinking about nothing and here's where it went:
Idk if this is scientifically accurate, but it seems to me that individuals of the younger generation are, on average, smaller (by no means do I mean thinner) than individuals of my generation and generations the preceded me. Could this be explained as genetic evolution is response to overpopulation and/or global warming in order for individuals to take up less space, or generate less body heat, respectively?
Probably not. But like I said, high thoughts. 
TL,DR; tell me your high thoughts. Deep, retarded, everything in between.

i believe that the human race was once such of giants, and we are getting shorter, and shorter as evolution progresses. there are some variables though...
then again i'm just high as fuck.

I've been led to believe the same. I distinctly remember a teacher telling me that a football team of Native Americans from ~300 yrs ago would be unstoppable due to their superior size, strength, and stamina.

I wish I could see what that is.
Envix: thanks for providing a source. That's what I get for taking a history/biology lesson from an 8th grade social studies teacher. There should be separate graphs for each race, because that definitely makes a difference.
My only basis for my theory in the OP is: I was remembering driving by my high school at the the end of the school day about a yr ago, and every single kid was little as fuck. I went to that school 5 yrs ago. We had some big fuckers, and I didn't really stand out as tall (I was 6'1"-6'2"). Now they all look like my middle school classes.

highschool kids look like midgets to me and i'm only 5'5. i think as you grow older, looking back at highschool kids from a new perspective they may seem much much younger and "smaller" to you now.
someone 5 years younger than me would look totally different to me now than if i were their same age, i think

I completely agree. I remember even 13 years ago and until I graduated HS 3 years later, every incoming freshmen class would seem to get smaller and further from puberty.
Now. I'm only 5'9 and have been the same height since I was 15 or so, but nowadays when I drive by a high school, the people just seem like tiny little kids. It's really weird, but as Envix said, I also think it's just a matter of perception.

I'm 23, 5'9, 125 lbs, and people think I'm 16, so going to the bars is hilarious.
If my theory is right and I'm just aging slower than usual then people looking younger and younger makes perfect sense. Humans have been living longer and longer for a while now and while medicine is the big kicker behind this, aging slower would be a desirable trait for a species.

Lol evolution doesn't happen that fast man. But yeah people are definitely getting taller, I'm 5'9, that's supposed to be average right? But sometimes I even feel pretty short.

You're right--evolution does not generally happen that fast. But, a species' response to a rapidly changing environment does, and is necessary for continued survival. Nutrition in the western world has become somewhat more abundant in the last 50-100 years. More recently this nutrition consists of high fat and high carb foods. Add to that the fact that antibiotics and hormones (synthetic and natural) are now in almost everything we eat. I think it is only natural that we are starting to see rapid changes in species. These are not likely genetic (evolution) but rather epigenetic (how our genes respond to the changing environment).

I'm still sticking with the idea that's just perception. There's no damn way that in the 10 years I've been out of high school, humans evolved in any way.
Girls on the other hand are a different story. I can't tell you how many times I've been drunk at the beach in the past few years and I flirted with a girl all day thinking she was in her 20's to find out she just turned 17. I don't know what the hell parents are feeding their little girls in the generation after mine, but it must be some type of super ass and titty growing hormone.
For those of you wondering.. ..I did not ever hook up with any 16 or 17 years old in my mid-late 20's. 18 year olds on the other hand, are a different story and awesome stories at that.
