Okay, so I study people's brains for a living. But there is something that I can not understand.
You know how sometimes in life there's one certain person and when you're in their vicinity you can't help the overflow of sexual feelings almost physically pulling you to that person? When you think about them, nothing. When you talk to them from a distance, nothing. But the second you know you're in the same place as they are is like earth shattering, something lower than your cerebral cortex. God I hate that shit, it makes so little sense. Thank God I only have to see him once a year.
Another thing, the fact that olfaction is the only sense that passes the thalamus on the way to the brain has seriously been screwing with me.
This guy is seriously amazing:

The STS9 collaboration video is my favorite. I listen to it after work to keep myself moving.
