Unexplained drop in brain activity

BabyRider · Post by **BabyRider** » Fri Apr 15, 2005 7:55 pm

Have you ever experienced this phenomenon? Your man's brain, for no apparent reason, without warning, suddenly ceases to function.

I don't know if it's a tripped circuit, a hiccup in the wiring, a short in his hard drive, or what. We're talking about a generally normal-functioning male brain here. Still under warranty, has all the correct input, occasional odd output, but nothing to be alarmed at, had all the tune-ups and even rotated the tires. Then out of the blue....WHAMMO!!!! A severe, distinct drop in functioning grey matter. Is it the proximity to power lines? A nutritional thing? Is there an "off" switch that gets bumped? Am I alone in having experienced this? I'd sure like to hear from anyone who has seen this themselves.

The male brain is a complex and wondorus organ. It operates in an extremely sophisticated manner, and of such high order that it's brilliance often is mistaken for malfunction. The only known problem occurs when the testosterone level gets low. You may want to provide some service in this area. :sneaky:

Could you be more specific?

You're not talking normal, male idiocy here, a disorder we all suffer from, are you?

Is this a polite way of saying men think with the wrong head? :yh_rotfl

An ex and I were having a heated discussion, the subject long forgotten, when I exclaimed "Yes, Virginia. There is a male menopause. We act like idiots."

To which she replied, "And how does that differ from the rest of your life?"

Had to admit, she had me.

The male body, and that includes the brain, is nothing more that a life support system for there YOU KNOW WHAT.. They know it, and continue to try and fool us with there charm, wit, and humor..

We had a disagreement about what certain people consider acceptable behavior, and what I am comfortable with. (Keeping in mind, we're talking biker activities, here.) Someone acted inappropriately, in my book, and I wanted to call her on it. Not only do I not get to call her on it, her actions were defended by Bullet. So I have to suck up a troll's behavior, and listen to my own man say it's ok.

And to be honest, the whole thing pales in comparison now that I have some perspective about what other people in my life are going through. It just ain't such a big deal today. But thanks for the laughs, guys!!! I can always count on you!

Act like she did and then see how well Bullet likes it.

BabyRider · Post by **BabyRider** » Sat Apr 16, 2005 5:38 pm

Peg, have you been told lately that you're brilliant? :yh_bigsmi

Peg · Post by **Peg** » Sat Apr 16, 2005 5:39 pm

I'm pretty sure Bullet would not agree with that opinion LOL.

Ladies, again you fail to grasp the wisdom, the accumulated philosophic and scientific learning that is inherant in only the male of the specis. I'm sure ol Bullet pondered carefully, and with the wisdom of the ancients, put the subject in context before making his determination. Surely you don't think that our sweet and precious Baby Rider should behave like a troll, or worse, subject her dainty little self to possible bad language, or bitch slapping by a troll. Twould be a travesty to risk damage to that lovely little behind.

I've noticed that. When I am drinking beer and I reach the 8th one, not the 7th, but only the 8th, suddenly for no apparent reason, I seem to have difficulty thinking.
