Well missed the point by a mile, but anyhoo :p

It's a nice rant about...stuff...but ultimately useless as you should really consider adding why you think it's stupid(instead of just saying "stupid peope think that") and offer the appropriate way to look at it. Otherwise the whole post looks like you repeating "it's stupid, it's stupid, it's stupid" ;)

Oh do fuck off.

Edit: This was going to be a post about why it wasn't a rant and pointing out everything you said there had already been clearly answered in that post, with reasoning. But why bother with you?

Edit edit: Put "edit" in front of that before you accuse me of some sorta pissy meta-something as you're want to do...

O....k. So you can't explain it further then "whole 10% thing is stupid"?

(Note, Scouse edits came after this post)

Ah ok, it seems you're on shared period cycle with @caLLous . Nevermind then, won't be asking reasonable questions or taking any note of you for a few days *pats head and gives tub of icecream*

The questions you asked had already been answered.

Where exactly? Because it sure wasn't. You have nowhere said what the actual facts are regarding the whole "only use 10%" are.

Only thing you said in that post was "it's not true"(all be it in 10 different ways)

Just to be clear, before I enter into any sort of argument with you over this: Do you believe that humans only use 10% of their brains? Yes or No.

Yes/No. Not sure of the exact percentage. As far as my knowledge on the matter goes that misconception comes from "we use x percent at any given time". There's also no argument, i was asking...hmm...how to put this absolutely clear; what is the fact about peoples brain usage? That's what i found lacking in the post.

Nope. The misconception is that we only ever use 10% so imagine how much more amazing we'd be if we could harness the power of the remaining 90%. It's rubbish; we use most of our brains most of the time.

No it's not. "We only ever use 10% of our brains" and "we use 10% of our brains at any given time" are not the same statement. Note the use of phrases such as "only ever" and "at any given time".

You can do your silly little facepalm thing all you like but there's an important distinction between the two statements whether you like it or not...

I facepalmed you because i never said those are the same statements.

I never claimed the misconception is anything other then what Scouse said, i said the misconception comes from the fact we use x amount of our brains at any given time.

EDIT: Discussion with you always go the same way, i say "oranges have vitamin c" and you say "You're wrong, bananas have potassium".

I never said "we use 10% of our brain at any given time", but whatever makes you two lying sacks of sh*t happy. Luckily other people have enough brains to read and notice that.

You said you didn't know the exact percentage, meaning it could be like 10, 12, 15 or whatever, somewhere around 10. Ten percent to 90% is a bit of a leap don't you think?

And just because other people don't respond I'm quite sure it's more a case of them having more self-control and the ability to ignore your drivel, not because they agree with you.

No, it means "i don't know the exact percentage". As in "i don't know". As in "could be any number".

If i wanted to say "10,12, 15 or whatever somewhere around 10" i would've said "around 10%" or some such.

The fact is, we use all of our brains all of the time. Different areas have more activity in them at different times and during different uses but no area ever goes dead and every area has a purpose.

There is no "spare capacity".

See my comment very early on about people with stupidly poor levels of scientific education and add yourself to their ranks @old.Tohtori.

Never claimed that either. Only thing on the matter i didn't know is if we use 100% of our brain all the time. That's what i was originally asking and on everything else we've been on the same side all along.

That's it. But no, you two just had to twist and lie it into a big issue :p

You effectively did - when you admitted that you think humans use less than 100% of their brains at any given moment.

Might be true in your case tho...

I'd put him on it but for two reasons: 1) it makes FH disjointed because he can't help but post shite even if he knows you're ignoring him and 2) meh, the world is full of cunts, there's no real way of avoiding them :)
