    Neuroscientists have taken us all for FOOLS for too long and this is the last fucking straw…

    Hundreds of thousands of dollars put towards ‘residencies’ and ‘doctorates’ every year. Countless young adults conned into believing that they too can ‘unlock’ the ‘mysteries’ of the brain if only they pay Mr. John Hopkins or Duke $450,000 over the course of the next 18 years!

    nerd simpering neuroscientists: We’ve just published a new paper detailing laminar organization of neocortical activities during systemic anoxia! It changes EVERYTHING!

    very-smart normal ‘‘uneducated’’ people: and what does that mean exactly?

    nerd: It means that…when you’re dying because you’re having a stroke or not breathing or bleeding out or…your brain cells eventually die too…

    ??? GET REAL!
