So I recently learned something about myself...

I can see the error too. My brain is just willing to go all Pepe Silvia until I have a solution that fills in the gap.

We all have things our brains do that annoy us. I wish I could lower my anxiety and get my brain to stop thinking of worst case scenarios/get it to shut up even if I'm trying to distract myself.

You might just have to come to terms with people without data based braining being in creative control of things you watch, and learn to cut them some slack then.
Just a quick bit, but I do cut them some slack on this particular instance for Made in Manehatten. I'm pretty sure most of my aggravation was coming from people trying to tell me it's 'just how it works' or 'It's not worth focusing on/bringging up' because those are NOT options I have.

My brain isn't going to accept either. I understand perfectly that the writers simply overlooked it. I understand perfectly (especially now) that they might not have even noticed it, and I understand perfectly to most people this minor little detail isn't going to be important to most watching it.

The thing is. None of that changes the fact that it doesn't make much logical or narrative sense. So... it's still going to get pointed out to me.

Then imagine you get people trying to tell you how minor a thing it is when your brain does this. I've often wanted to scream "How in the bleep am I supposed to DO that huh?"

Certainly confirms what must be happening when I dream. It's so ironic too. My brain can't properly mimic things like air pressure, or atmospheric sound. And yet BECAUSE of how it is, it points that out to itself and immediately concludes that I'm dreaming.

And yeah, that's probably the reason I mostly lucid dream.

No worries buddy, like Med mentioned, we've all got our little idiosyncratic personality ...uniquenesses. lol. I didn't want to re-litigate a decade old fim episode debate again so deeply, but it was the only example of your brainism I could really speak to. Point being, it is good to know that it has helped... after a fashion... at least. My brainism is mild dpd, and that tends to manifest with me trying to be who people need me to be... I just meet a lot of people who don't have an "oh its this asshole again" in their lives apparently. XD...

I genuinely wasn't trying to upset you. Just point out, that we on the outside are always going to be on the losing side of this fight with your brain... when it holds all the cards regarding what data it will accept... especially in cases where the data it does want... doesn't exist.
