purple_freak15 Recca It is a fallacy that humans use only 10% of the brain. The average human generally uses 100% of his or her brain. Not that this is the only thing wrong about that quote, but whatever. I didn't even read most of it. Too long, too psychotic. actually, humans really only do use about 10% of their brains. some people use less, others may use more. Einstine only ever used about 30-40% of his brain (I believe, the numbet may be a little different), and he was a genious. it's not a huge deal, it's just how we work.
I think it may be true that in the internet, some posters may only use 10% of their brains, but that's an opinion.
As for the reality, this is an often-debunked piece of fluff. Humans use 100%, just not usually all at the same time.
