Okay, so here's the deal.


The brain is absurdly complicated. It's not just neurons firing and thoughts happening. There's a lot more to it than that. The brain is a supercomputer divided into a bunch of parts that carry out a bunch of different processes. Some of those are logical, others are emotional. But it's all one machine, so to speak. So the logical and the emotional is all up there, floating around in a sense, as those neurons fire.

And because it's a computer, everything is stored in the language of the computer, and that's not a language that we speak. It's a really complicated language. Even simple thoughts, like the concept of the number one (the example Carl Sagan used in his description of this whole thing) is contained in a lengthy series of arguments, theorems, corollaries, and other such things that if we were to write it out would probably encompass a work of a novel's length.

So what ends up happening is that all of these thoughts, logical, rational, and emotional, are being simultaneously transferred across their respective brain regions in their complicated language, and then we have to synthesize it and act on it all. There's a lot of room for things to get screwed up, confused, and lost in translation. I think that's why things end up being so complicated. Because we're the ones making them happen, and everything we do requires a complicated series of happenings.

I don't know if this is why relationships are complicated, but it's the best I could do for a scientific explanation.

Pops said to check out music from "Full Metal Jacket." Sure enough. Leave it to Stanley Kubrick to always find the best music.
