Really?
Yeah, definitely. I didn't know people didn't have to think about it for a second.
This is wild and I genuinely can't wrap my head around it.
So say, if you were blindfolded and run, if I give you command a la those rally drivers you will have a noticeable lag to my cue ? Like not instant ?
I mean, it's a split second, but yeah, I gotta think about it. I don't think there would be noticeable lag, but it's definitely a conscious thought. I just thought everyone had to have the thought go through their head, it's not just like an instinct or anything.
I guess the brain is just weird like that. This is also news to me, I thought "doesn't know left from right" is just a figure of speech.
And now I'm down into the rabbit hole.
