    Something people often forget about is how strictly speaking you can’t do stupid things without using your brain, but you CAN do stupid things without using your entire brain, particularly the prefrontal cortex of the frontal lobe. Which is the part that dictates logic, common sense, and conscious thought.

    • @Derinrin

      @webpombo7765 9 місяців тому +36

      Fun fact, part of the brain (probably the prefrontal cortex, or part of it) is basically disabled while dreaming, which is why you tend to just accept absurd scenarios as reality, and then wake up and realize everything made no sense.

      The farmer didn't hit very well... If he cut off all the chickens head nicely it would have bled to death in around 2 minutes or so. They can run around a bit and stuff like that but shooting blood out of the neck really puts a tight time constraint on the chickens life.

      @hexeddecimals 9 років тому +115

      Sam Page I have thought that before, but if we were truly our brain we would be a lot more busy. We would have to manually control every single thing from our heart beat to digestion to the immune system. Brains are also fooled by optical illusions because of evolution, they are "naive" to what is actually there. If we were our brains we wouldn't fall for such tricks. Because of that, we are something less than our brains. Our conscious. The conscious is like the pilot of the brain that pilots the organic mech suit, except the conscious uses auto pilot so t can do other things like create thoughts and rationalize.
