Every time you pass by your plumbed in water cooler, and reach for a deliciously refreshing glass of cool, clear liquid, we bet we know what you’re thinking. It’ll be along the lines of, “Oooooh yeah. Deeeeelicious”. Or something. We also bet, however, that you’ve never really stopped to wonder what is going on in that brain of yours every time this magic moment occurs. Well, dear reader, we’re here to inform and entertain you with this knowledge, so read on, and discover the secrets of your noggin, and which bits are working when you come across your plumbed in water cooler…The Cerebellum: This little fellow is in charge of coordinating your movements, posture and balance. For example, the Cerebellum might instruct: “Bend over slightly. Reach for cup. Extract cup. Place under cold tap. Release tap. Bring delicious water to your lips”.
Broca’s area: Broca’s area, being the part of the Neocortex that controls speech and language recognition, is completely essential for idle water cooler chat, when one stops to refresh one’s self in the office.
The Parietal Lobe: Being involved in processing pain and touch sensation, it’s because of this Lobe that you’ll know pretty darn quick if you’re pouring hot water on yourself. Safety taps are available from us.
