just because someone is a stoner doesnt make them an idiot .. look at when Mr Hand comes to Spicoli's house.. Spicoli learns and understands everything Mr Hand teaches him .. he's not stupid .. he just doesnt care about the things he cant change or affect and cares about living simply .. like he said "choice waves and a cool buzz" he would be just as happy living in a mansion or in a RV van parked on the beach ... seriously bro realizes that mo money mo problems .. so he lives simply and is happy with that and not playing the rat race game of keeping up with everyone else .. he is the smartest character in the entire movie ... *edit* i am on drugs while wrote this .. smoking weed and on some valiums ... so the fact that i am "stoned" and have more insight into the character known as Spicoli than you shows that ... just because you are a stoner doesnt mean you are an idiot..

Camron Crowe did a fantastic job researching this with real-life students in a California high school for his book, Fast Times At Ridgemont High, which was made into the movie. The characters in the book were based on actual students that Crowe met at Clairemont High School in San Diego. He talked to the Principal to get permission for his adventure and went undercover for a year. Crowe was an adult at the time but he looked much younger and was able to pass as a student. On a personal note, this was exactly how it was for me at my high school all the way across the country in the small town of Owensboro, KY. My brother was caught smoking pot at school, I was Jennifer Jason Leigh's character, experimenting with the adult world. No, we didn't have an ocean close by but we had skateboards, and bicycles as transportation until we got a car. Kids have it harder in school now than they did back then. Good Times, fast times!
