It's not that unusual experiences improve cognitive flexibility that I was surprised by, so much as how readily it does it.

Though given the people out there, I have to wonder how so few people could have so few interesting experiences.

I guess that also reinforces my firm belief that everyone's a freak and the ones who seem normal are just better at hiding it.  :lulz:

I think that's pretty close to the truth.

the most significant part of this article is that it is apparently a breakfast delicacy in the Netherlands to have a butter and chocolate chip sandwich.
