A thought experiment

[Olofelefant]

You wake up in a bed, hungover. You look around you, and notice you do not recognise this room, or the bed you are sleeping in. You feel something wet on your arm. You look around, and to your horror you see a medulla oblongata residing there, beside you on the bed. How do you react?

 

[Woodsey]

I would probably be surprised with myself for suddenly knowing what the fuck that is, especially when I was hungover.

 

[kickassfrog]

I'm not a doctor, but I would check to see whether or not I was naked, and then check my skull to make sure it isn't mine. Then I would grab my stuff and leave.

P.S. I don't get hangovers.

 

[Rawne1980]

I'd wonder what the hell i'd been drinking and where I could find some more.

 

[gigastrike]

Ewww! *quickly retract arm* Uhh...why am I hung over, I don't drink. Where am I? (getting kinda creeped, looks around the room for cameras or windows.)

 

[Nathan Crumpler]

This is like a really depressing Cinderella story.

 

[Twilight_guy]

I'd probably vomit what with a piece of someone's brain sitting next to me and jump out of the bed. After that I'd try and figure out where I am and what happened. Probably first by searching the room, depending on how gross the brain is I might just run out, and then I'd look around elsewhere in the area.

 

[OmniscientOstrich]

'Wow, I actually fucked somebody's brains out.' I don't know, realistically I'd scream girlishly and start freaking out wondering how a part of someone's brain got on my arm.

 

[Cap'n Ninja]

Well it [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medulla_oblongata] isn't the most specific of body parts in appearance, so I probably wouldn't react to it much past if I found a lump of chicken on my arm. Go "ugh", throw it off, go and wash and try to figure out my surroundings.

 

[Jakub324]

I'd get off the bed, grab my stuff and get the hell out of there.

 

[TheIronRuler]

I'd probably just see apiece of some matter and not identify it as a part of a brain. The blood, on the other hand, isn't a good sign. Most probably - Thank Chuck Norris that there's no TV monitor in sight that might turn on and ask me to play with it.

 

[Vandy]

Ask it if it's up for sloppy morning after sex.
Get disappointed when it say's I need to go like, right now.

 

[Fbuh]

I would be very impressed that I recognized a specific piece of the brain after I had just awoken. We shall say that I am not the most...graceful...person upon waking. The word 'coherent' can't even enter the context without laughing.

 

[Hedonist]

I run towards my computer and google medulla oblongata.
Then I call an ambulance.

 

[Odinson426]

Where's the experiment part of this?

 

[Kapol]

I would look over and ask. "Was it as good for you as it was for me?" Then, after joking for a moment, precede to wonder why there was a bit of brain on me.

 

[Logiclul]

I don't view this as a thought experiment as there is no real line of which you could discern people from.

But I would be shocked at first, but would gather myself and learn more about what happened.
