What is the psychology of people who weave in and out of traffic at high speeds?

Is it just for fun, or are they pure assholes? Or is there another reason that I'm missing?

Is memory selective?

With my MIL I find that she actually remembers events from a day or two ago, but not things that we discussed in the past few minutes. I find it interesting that the brain chooses to remember certain events, but not others.

Delusions and stories?

Wondering if I should expect this to be a common occurrence. This is just one example... But my MIL with dementia claims that she takes out the garbage every night, and then complains to us that we never help her out. We know for a fact that she NEVER takes out the garbage.

Anyway, is this a common symptom? If so, how do you guys cope with it?

Please explain why IgG blood tests aren't helpful.

An integrative doctor pushed this on me a few years ago. But I've also read somewhere that they are inaccurate and do not measure food sensitivity. So what exactly do they measure then?

What is a better way to test for food sensitivity?

How should you feel when a store associate is assisting you and then another customer interrupts

This seems to be happening a lot to me lately. To me it's common sense for the employee to say, "hold on a minute, I'm with someone right now" .. but that rarely happens.

Should you tip at the register?

Every time I buy a cup of coffee these days, the screen always asks if I want to tip. Personally I feel a bit awkward pressing "no tip" when they're staring right at me. What does everyone else think?

When is lethal force justified in a road rage incident?

This is a hypothetical scenario for discussion only. Suppose someone follows you to your destination, and gets out of the car and walks towards you. There are no weapons in sight, but it is clear that he is pissed. What if you shoot the guy? How would that go in court?

What is it about reddit that doesn't encourage healthy discussions, but instead invites bullying and harassment?

Seriously, not everything has to be an argument. Sometimes people just want to ask genuine questions, and/or share another opinion on a subject. Why can't we be civil on this platform?

Why can't someone with dementia accept that they have it and just cooperate with treatment protocols?

Sorry, but I'm completely new at this, and it's been tough.

What happens when you eat close to bedtime?

I have heard that this is bad, but I would like to know more details on what happens inside. Does food stay in the stomach overnight?
