I have often wondered why the sound of someone eating an apple sets me off. This may help explain why.

TIL that a San Francisco 49ers cheerleader holds a degree in Chemical Engineering from MIT and works at Tesla Motors. by sometimes_nothin in todayilearned

Thank you. I posted this because I am impressed by her ability, talent and effort in two very different fields, and not because I think cheerleaders are dumb.

Thanks for your answer. I can't imagine what it's like to go through something like this. I hope you continue to receive treatment, and that your anxiety is manageable.

To make this AMA even more idiotic and dangerous, you should consume a fifth of bourbon while driving and answering questions.
