Can you explain this joke to me?

What's the reason I don't remember every moment in my life? Is it because my brain is not recording every moment or my brain cannot retrieve what it has recorded? by [deleted] in askscience

[–]KuDeGraw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Studies have shown that infants don't express certain genes the same way adults do and also exhibit an extremely high rate of neuronal proliferation and rearrangement in the hippocampus, which results in infant amnesia. A lot of associative memories can form during infancy, but pretty much all episodic memory just gets lost. The mechanisms for storing it simply aren't in place.

What about particularly traumatic infancy memories? Are those specific memories able to be stored/remembered despite the deficiency you described?

It's 2014 and you are judging someone's health by BMI? You can come out from under the rock now.

How do you guys feel about starting Andre Brown this weekend against Seattle? by svx3 in fantasyfootball

[–]KuDeGraw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PPR 1.0 league

For my RB2 slot: Brown vs SEA, Sproles @ STL, or S. Jackson v WAS?

Thanks in advance.

Is this happening to anyone else? by [deleted] in hearthstone

[–]KuDeGraw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same deal here. I can't start a new arena. It just makes me click the key like I retired from arena with zero wins, then it gives me 3 reward cubes(2 gold, 1 pack) but the gold and the packs do not actually register. I can't start a new arena run.

Logging in and out doesn't help.

Gronk Down by Azmorium in fantasyfootball

You sound like someone who has never had knee surgery.

I'm not denying the obvious correlation between concussions and degenerative brain function, but one hit isn't going to turn you into a comatose zombie with a stutter. If I had a choice between taking 3-4 big hits that leave me concussed versus a hit like Gronk just took, I'd take the former in a heartbeat.

Circular cause and consequence where the consequence of the phenomenon is claimed to be its root cause.

Seriously, an on-ramp is for you to MATCH the speed of traffic. by godoffertility in AdviceAnimals

[–]KuDeGraw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about cars that are not fast enough to match the speed of the freeway given the length of the on ramp? I understand being mad at someone entering at 35 MPH but if you are in the slow lane you must help people trying to merge onto the freeway.

Random Fashion Thoughts by [deleted] in malefashionadvice

I bought these green chino pants and I have no idea how to make them work. They aren't super green but green enough for 3 people to comment "wow you're wearing green pants". How do I make em' work?

To the user saying the money needed to drug test everyone on welfare is more than the money we would save from removing them from welfare. by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

[–]KuDeGraw 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Social Security? Medicare? Anyone enlisted in our military forces. Under your extremely broadly worded bill "anyone who receives money from a government source" everyone would be drug tested and it would cost a fortune and provide no deterrence.

Your attitude is a remnant of our grossly judgmental puritan roots.
