The Slots of the Brain

It has occured to me that people in general have two "slots" in their brain. These slots contain the two major things that seperate people from common vegetables. The first is the primary personality slot. This slot is what contains the "active mind." This slot is what people are using 90% of the time. Now this state is always what people are actively thinking about. Daydreams arrive here as well as active deduction and reasoning. Anything out of routine also goes in this place. The second slot houses the backup personality slot. The secondary mind is in progress here. This slot isn't formed until adolesence in most humans. This is only active when the Primary Slot is performing one action of prime importance, but the physical body must continue performing some remedial task. (a.k.a. mowing the lawn or driving a car, but thinking of something more nuts.) I mean, this is what keeps you from crashing your car while you really couldn't give a damn about the road. However when something does go wrong in front of the car, your primary slot is re-aligned to fit the situation. This slot is not connected in any way to the dynamic memory center. The secondary slot will perform simple tasks such as straightening a room, but the device isn't always smart about it and causes lost items at a later point. Most secondary slots can speak for you. They can answer simple questions, or in some have more complex conversations. During later conversations you may find your secondary slot has made an arrangement that you weren't aware of. If the body is not moving or doing anything, then upon primary slot disengagement, the secondary slot will not take hold and the body will "zone out."

Primary Slot disfunctional syndrome... Some people were born without a primary slot. This is extremely unfortunate as the secondary slot must run all actions. These people are incapable of doing two things at the same time, nor can they perform complex actions(juggling is right out). For example. If for one instant these degenerates stop concentrating on the road, the first curve will see them plummeting into the ditch. These people appear very slow, and must stop doing one routine thing to perform another. Should these people ever undergo secondary slot disengagement, they will "lock up" and require some form of stimulus to recover. This syndrome, however terrible, proves that the secondary slot is capable of so much more. Often these people will have "pre-programmed responses" for various things that could happen. Since their memory isn't dynamic, they must store simple response lists in their memory statically to insure communication is continued without process interruption. Should something not be found, they will hesitate for long periods of time until a new response is created, used, and added with the others.
