“You don't remember what happened. What you remember becomes what happened.” John Green, An Abundance of Katherines
-
"We are all largely the products of the stories that we tell ourselves." That is an incredible line. Is that a famous quote, or did Hank come up with that? Either way, it's excellent.
-
Okay, is it just me oooor? I frequently mix up real memories and dreams. Like, I'll think a dream really happened or, more commonly, something that really happened was just a dream. I use to hid it because I thought it was embarrassing but know I just ask someone I know, like, "Okay, did this really happen?" So, yeah. Is it just me?

Forgot what you said about memory, had to re-watch the video
-
cramming for a psychology test.

This is one of the most helpful youtube channel ever
-
To quote Memento: "Memory can change the shape of a room; it can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts."
-
It is honestly mid blowing how far psychology and neuroscience has gotten in the last ten years.

"Who forgets cookies!?" Pauses video. Walks to kitchen Doesn't forget why I'm there Gets cookies Heads back to watch video Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom
-
This psychology course is great for self development. I personally think there should be a mandatory introduction to psychology course taught in all highschools.

"Who forgets cookies!?" ~Hank Green 2014.
-
omg, that has happened to me SO many times: ~gets up to do something~ Wait, why am I here? ~goes back, sees thing that I needed to do something for~ Oh, right. ~goes to do thing again~
-
It's so clever the way these videos are done: "Who forgets to buy cookies?! :O " Utilising exactly the same emotional-association idea that you discussed in the previous episode. For education! Man, I really love CrashCourse :)
-
Why is my name always used? Is this a sign? 😭
-
0:31 Nice detail by having a The Fault In Our Stars fan as a potential thief in the left side! LOL!!! ;D
-
Again with the Bernice!
-
I feel like I'm only passing pathology bc I watch these over and over! Thanks so much for having them, an excellent tool to go with my lecture notes.
-
I'm surprised how much I remembered from the video when he delineated all the topics at the end of the video. Doing that is always helpful for me, thanks John!

That's a lot of innocent people. I wonder how many innocent people died in prison or suffered debilitating injuries (including psychological problems) because of these memory mistakes? Why did the human brain evolve to have such a bad memory anyway?
