Do you use more energy when you're thinking really hard?

Answer 1

YOU so know it. Today I've had to pee a hundred times. I had no idea that trying to figure out why my computer won't download yahoo messenger would help me burn calories. I just pray it was in my gluteous maximus and not in my obdula loblongata.

Answer 2

Lately it just seems I can smell insulation burning on wire. Must be a short circuit north of my shoulders when thinking too much.
I actually have a job where thinking is frowned upon, so that saves me a lot of energy.

Yes. Many chess players report spending large amounts of energy during a game, and are often worn out afterwards.

Oh, Yeah. That's why I do my best thinking while sitting on the throne in the bathroom. The strain could cause an embarrassing accident if I was anywhere else.

Answer 5

Well if those gears start churning, they need to be kept well lubed and the harder you think the more they churn.

Seeing as I'm in Alberta, I switch to 5W30 over the winter.
