Anyone else here used to be smart but became a brainlet?
I spent a couple of months washing dishes as a part time job, but I'm a lanklet and the kitchen sink were I worked was pretty low.

I think spending so much time bending over must have deprived my brain of too much oxygen and now I feel really stupid.

As much as it pains me to admit it...
Thinking lower makes the whole person go lower.
You gotta think high anon.

Y-Yes
I had brain surgery, resulting in my right amygdala & hippocampus being removed.
>surgery induced brainlet
I'm planning on going back to uni though, found a neuro-sci program. Thought I'd be a perfect fit.
But yeah. Went from my lowest grade being a B before surgery to my best grade being a B+ last semester after the surgery. It was humiliating.

I couldn't help it. I had a brain tumor. It was either keep an eye on it, wait for it to become cancerous and have tonnes of seizures, or remove the thing. Damn tumor just decided to make my amygdala and hippocampus its home.

It's true, called an amygdalohippocampectomy. It's actually one of the more common brain surgery procedures done out there.
>I didn't take pictures of the scar after
That was my first mistake after the surgery. But damn, it was neat.
