What the fuck does any of this mean?

Can someone break these down one by one and explain this in simpler terms?

you are a machine made out of those parts, you should know how you work

Every single time someone makes a retarded ass thread, surely enough, the picrel is Reddit frog.
What's the scientific explanation behind this?

pepe the frog is 4chan culture. if you hate it, you better migrate to other social media

A nerve has neurons, neuron has dendrites, a dendrite has receptors, the receptors generate an action potential, the action potential becomes an electric signal.

I don't see any "retarded ass thread". OP asks a genuine question and wants to learn. Frog posters are honest on-topic posters.

Funny cells regulate the flow of ions through their membranes to create an incredibly complex Boolean system which, for some yet unknow reason, constitutes what you experience as consciousness and being.

Neuron is a long boi
Dendrites are frondies
Receptors are num-num-chemmy-pouches
Action potentials are zip zappers
Electric signals is THE JUICE
Nerves are your itty-bitty-feelerinos
