Does anyone else find it ironic that when we can't understand something about the brain, it's our brain that isn't understanding itself... So meta
-
what if phinneas gage was just pissed that his eye was missing?
-
Psych exam in 3 hours, these videos are such a help.
-
Your brain is the most important organ...According to your brain.
-
I wonder just how much my life would be different if Hank and John were my science/literature teachers in high school.
-
"for now, if you payed attention, you have learned..." me realising i was in thoughts (about something) for the past 2min
-
I wonder if the doctor said ''Fascinating!'' after Gage coughed out brain.
-
I'm here cause I hate my psych textbook.

Every psych class I've ever taken always has the story of Phineas Gage in the beginning of the text book. I can't blame you for using him, since he's such a helpful case study, but my god if I hear the story of Phineas Gage that isn't in the form of a limerick ONE MORE TIME. Seriously, the man deserves a limerick with a name and story like that. Phineas Gage, on every texbook page. Working the railroad for a living wage. Took a spike to the head But he wasn't dead Just a little weird, with some meanness and rage.

I love this guy! He's so lively during his lessons.
-
Took an actual spike through his brain and literally just walked away from it? Damn. That's a whole new level of "like a boss"!

I am a sophomore who is very interested in going into psychology, and I just really think it's interesting in itself. It's amazing to have this free course because psychology courses aren't available until I am a junior and it'll be nice to have a headstart, and possibly learn things I won't learn or discuss when i do start it in school. And i really love the way things are explained here and having the animations make it more interesting and more likely to be remembered.
-
He makes sense of everything as if he was in a normal conversation. I could listen to him for hours without getting bored
-
Phineas Gage? More like Phineas Rage. ...I'll go now.
