Title of the article is, why does your brain go blank?

0:20.9

The answer is, like you said, Steve, meetings. I'm telling you, man. Zoom. And honestly gone, I read through this article, and I'm like, this is why your mind goes blank in meetings. Yeah. It'll make sense. Not really does. Sometimes your brain seems like it's not working. That might actually be a sign that it's doing its job very well,

0:26.4

according to popular science. They say, according to a study, published by cognitive neuroscientists,

0:33.5

mind blanking, those strange moments where nothing's going on upstairs, might occur between 5% and 20% of the time.

0:44.3

These are those moments when you just zone out, don't remember what you're thinking, just stop paying attention. Think about it this way. When you walk into a room and go, why did I walk in here?

1:28.1

Oh, man. And then you stop for a minute and you take you about and then 20 seconds later. Maybe you have to walk out first. Then you'll figure out. One thing I read about that, that's a transitional something. And it's the idea that if the thing you need to do in the other room or the thing you need to grab any other room is not of paramount importance, your brain, just the way we operate, when you step from one place to another, even if you're just walking from your living room to the kitchen, for whatever reason, when you step into the kitchen, your brain kind of restarts again, right? So now you're in, but you forget why you went into the kitchen. All you know is that you need to be in the kitchen. Now you're in the kitchen, but you have no idea why the hell you're there. And they said, it's just a weird thing. Once you walk through a room, for whatever reason, that's why it happened. you happen to be sitting so close yeah sorry everybody look i assume i know why but it's just odd we're working on some stuff all right

1:35.2

mike said hey man to slide a little closer miles as we work on this stuff and i said man that that's fine

1:40.0

i thought you were just thinking i was sexy i thought he was looking at your computer but i'm like

1:44.0

he's talking he's finishing a thought i'm's one more thing I've got to do at the next break, too. One more thing I'm going to do the next break. Oh, my God. That's all I'm thinking. All right. It's all I'm thinking. Okay. If that's the resolution to this. Yeah, I can see why. Is it possible? I think this is perfect. Yeah. Anyway. We'll explain it later. As close as you are now, you can't be farting. That would be a soul. You're so close to Ohio. I wish I had to fart right now. To me, this is the place to do it. I know. I do it on the elevator room we're in there.

2:18.9

I walk in a meeting his office.

2:20.0

I'll blow it out.

2:20.5

Yesterday, I want to show him something on my computer, right? But I'm eating a cup of clam chowder. And he farts all the way around the desk and then gets as close as he can to me. And I've got my mouth open, like with a spoon in my mouth,

2:16.4

and I'm just basically eating his farts.

2:18.5

You're welcome.

2:19.1

2:35.1

You're welcome.

2:35.7
