  1. The brain is such a weird organ, like compared to other organs we really don’t know a lot about what is going on in there and that’s doubly so for the French

  2. Yet another indisputable proof of French dominance. The lack of a brain can’t even stop us

  3. This is not indicative of beeing french, its indicative of beeing a civil servent.

  4. Now imagine what we could do with a whole brain.

    I bet we’d steal your wives in batches of three or four instead of one at a time.

  5. Well a french brain is like 4 british brains or 3 german brains .

    Not really surprising there

  6. So French used only 10% of the brain all this time ??? What if they used 100% of brain ??

    Can I convert to French?

  7. When you only have 10% of your brain and are still as smart as the average Pierre.

  8. This guy took the expression “avoir une case en moins” (to be missing a cell = being dumb) too seriously.

  9. Basically he has a condition that accumulates fluid in his head

    That fluid was drained when he was younger, but the drain was removed when he was 14

    Most likely he was of normal intelligence while young, and as his skull filled with fluid, his brain used its plasticity to shift its knowledge around to the “healthy parts”

    Note that his brain is compressed, not removed, so all the connections that used to be there may still exist but work slowly because of the compression

  10. 2 things:

    That IQ score does make you actually r-worded as not even the U.S. military could find any use for you (not even cannon fodder; they literally did a study on this in Vietnam)

    All this proves is you don’t need a functional brain to be a civil servant.
