    I thought maybe ‘parasympathetic nervous system’ was too obscure. I didn’t even know what it was until I went to the Mayo clinic.

    But also, I decided fuck it.

          Oh no, that’s just a misnomer. Common sense is not at all common. It should be, maybe, depending on the context, and maybe by a certain age it is. But it’s not common as in applies to most people.

          It’s like “everyone knows”.

          Yes this is 10,000.

          However, literally all of us have the Parasympathetic nervous system. You’d pretty much fail to be alive without it.
