Reply to comment by thegoldengoober in Researchers develop an artificial neuron closely mimicking the characteristics of a biological neuron by MichaelTen
Memories are tiny globs of slime that cling to our neurons. Those tiny globs slide up and down your neurons like trains on a track. When you remember something they slide into an area of the brain called "Salitzar's Pit" which spreads the glob across a cluster of cells that 'read' the memory.
These artificial neurons can transmit memories - a capability that eluded scientists until now. Meaning we can take all the globs of a person's memories and put them in an artificial brain and I'm making all of this nonsense up.

I knew it was bs from the getgo and I still wanted to read and understand whatever lore you were concocting.

This was the funniest thing I've read in a while.

Memories are stored in connections between neurons.

Memories are stored in the balls

That's why it hurts when you get kicked there. All those memories feeling the pain together

Ever thought of writing… fan fiction?

You just made it into my Salitzar's Pit of slime.

First time I heard something like this described.
Could you link me something on the subject?
I tried googling it but it keeps thinking I must be mispelling Salazar's Pit and shows me D&D articles.

It's a made up lie (a joke). Not real. Hoping that was obvious from... well, the post.
If you knew that and were playing along with it, then disregard.

I never get an counter argument if I plainly call people out.
You need to show genuine interest to even get a grain of effort from their side.
After they horked over the link, you slap them around using arguments you pulled from their source.

It's a joke though, not meant to be believed. It even says its fake right in the post. If someone reads that and actually believes it, let's say it'll be tough to educate them.

Never heard of it before.
I'll remember it next time.

That's because it sounds like they're full of shit.

Damn idk why this is funny, is it funny because it tricks the ignorant? If someone doesn't know about neurons this is plausible sounding enough for them to just take it at face value.

It's plausible sounding that memories are globs of slime that travel to something called 'Salitzar's Pit' to be remembered?
Anybody who takes that at face value should probably not be on the internet
