Your Brain on RHP
Professor Gates of Columbia University defined the psychological issues of human behavior in terms of 'urges'. His work (which I came
across Sunday evening) was published in 1939, long before Maslow's Progressive Hierarchy of human needs. Chuckled over it, realizing
his list of thirteen 'urges' sheds light on our universal NEED TO POST. The list is verbatim. Format and parenthetical comments are mine.
Thirteen Universal Human Urges
* Relative to Social Needs
1. To be in a group of the same species (make friends).
2. To secure social approval (warm fuzzies)
3. To avoid social disapproval (cold shoulder).
* Relative to Personal Needs
4. To secure sympathy (frequently and it's spelled out).
5. To relieve suffering (often, though understated).
6. To be submissive (unclear about this one).
* Relative to Achievement Needs
7. To collect and horde (seconds, rec's, praise).
8. To excel and succeed (engage others in genuine conversation).
9. To beget children (launch durable threads, win converts).
10. To care for and protect children (defending others, mod alerts).
* Relative to Competitive/Combat Needs
11. To fight persistent interference (free speech issues, injustices).
12. To hunt and destroy (feuding among bad blood factions).
13. To fight for its own sake (guess you already know who you are).

I'd like to add that I have a serious need to post, and if cannot find a thread that suits my needs, I will just create one. I would recommend this, but I don't know how. 8D
Somebody please tell me how.

Thank you for posting that urges, but I think you talking about soul not brain. Don't you?
the other hand, the residence of the immaterial and immortal human soul happens to be the brain. 🙂
Originally posted by Grampy BobbyWhat a painfully embarrassing self-revelatory projection of your internal weaknesses onto other people. "If I'm suuuuuuuuuuper nice, no one will be mean to me. The mean baddies here will just whistle and walk on by." Say something interesting or be gone. Your drooling, blathering, nonsensical posts, with their syrupy man-hugs suck the life out of the forums. Buy a teddy bear instead and man up.
