Brain Wave

When a genius idea strikes you in the middle of a huge dilemma, saving time, effort, money, you and friends from sobriety or ticketing/over-ticketing/arrest, etc...

Opposite of brain fart, cerebral blockage, bad idea, and so on.

Example #1
Fred: "I can't believe this store stops selling beer at 9 pm. What are we going to do?"
You: "Brain wave! The one down on Jeff Davis Hwy sells until 11! Get in the truck and let's roll!"
Fred: "You are a genius!"

Example #2
Bob: "My car stopped working, how are we going to get to the show?"
You (again!): Brain wave! My neighbor always leaves the keys in his ignition. Let's roll!"
Bob: "You are a genius!"

brain wave

A brain wave is a stupid thought that some kind of idiot gets after a sleepless night. This brain wave can become a brain Tsunami when this idiot is some kind of boss.
A brain farth is also some kind of idea.

Good examples of brain waves can be found in politic environments, for instance: "What about attacking Iran with nuclear bombs ?"

Brain waves

Yeah, see? It's a frequency. Your most extreme behavior and your most benign behavior creates an Overton Window within the bounds of which you fluctuate. Your "Personality" is the aggregate of the most common pattern fluctuations. Doesn't apply to Identity which would aggressive along a timeline over time.

Hym Iam "Yeah. Brain waves. So, like, some people are smart and create AI and some people are dumb and lie."
