“It’s not my fault, my brain is just too big…”

May 17, 2011

I swear that sometimes I have mild form of ADD. I get distracted way too easily (and Twitter sure ain’t helping matters). But now I’d like to think it’s because I’ve just got too much brain:

Researchers at University College London have found that people who are distracted easily have more grey matter in their left superior parietal lobe.

So next time the boss lady catches you not paying attention in a meeting, tell her your brain is just too big for you to handle. Try it–I’m sure she’ll just love that.
