Is Synesthesia Really a Thing?

by Carlo Carrubba

Synesthesia- or the ability to “connect” two or more of your senses has long been looked upon as a mental illness, or a made-up condition. Today, I will be uncovering whether this condition is a hoax or the real deal.

The first piece of evidence that is in support of synesthesia is certain studies done on the brain in relation to sound. These tests showed that when a sound was played for the person with synesthesia, not only did the “sound part” of the brain activate but so did the visual cortex.

The same thing was done with letters or numbers, and the visual cortex or some other part of the brain also came alive when another was stimulated. The region of the brain that plays a role in synesthetic experiences is called the parietal lobe.

The parietal lobe is the area of the brain that is able to connect two or more senses. This process is called perceptual binding. In order to have a synesthetic experience, the perceptual binding must occur.

Another very interesting fact is that people with synesthesia are not found to have any psychotic illness such as schizophrenia or a psychopathic diagnostic. This is what proves that synesthesia is its “own thing” if really a thing at all.

Some oppose these arguments by saying that everyone experiences synesthesia. To counter that, a famous study on synesthetes showed that people that weren’t synesthetes seldom associated the same color with the same object twice. The ones with synesthesia were those that kept constant.

Right now, only 4% of the world has come forward with this condition. Scientists are expecting the numbers of those who will come forward to go up because as this topic builds momentum upon itself, more people will be willing to talk about it.

Since there is little evidence to counter the existence of synesthesia and much to support it, I stand by the fact that synesthesia is a real condition. Proven by brain scans, and studies upon studies, this condition seems more existent than ever. I believe it with all of my senses.

Peace out.

Is the Movie “Split” Really a Thing?

by Carlo Carrubba

Obviously, we know that movies contain a LOT of fiction. But how realistic can they get? I will be analyzing the movie “Split” and how closely it mirrors the symptoms of Dissociative personality disorder. DID (previously known as Split Personality Disorder) is a mental illness where a person who has undergone great suffering or trauma “dissociates” their identity into different personalities. It is not to be confused with schizophrenia, as the people with DID aren’t imagining their alters. We know for sure that this disorder is real because the alters a person has have no memories of the person’s life or actions. So, let’s get right into the article! Beware, spoilers lie ahead (although if you still haven’t seen the movie to this day, maybe you should go see it?). 

Let’s start with the number of personalities Kevin encompasses. He has 23 of them, not including the Beast. This is actually not that much of an outlier in the community of DID because the average personality number gauged in a person with this disorder is 16. The way James McAvoy’s performance is so versatile to fit the demands of his “personalities” is impressive. 

We don’t see every single one of Kevin’s personalities in the movie but we do know the key ones: Patricia, Dennis, Hedwig, Barry, and Kevin. This fact brings us to another question regarding Split: Can people undergo physiological changes due to their personality shifts? The answer is maybe. A person’s brain may shift their personality as well as shift the hormone production in a person. For example, a personality similar to the Beast may have more adrenaline production because of its great strength. Even a personality like Patricia could take place by increasing the levels of estrogen in the body of a person. Although changes like these could very well take place, the disorder would have to be very extreme in the person (and sudden changes in things like muscle mass could not happen).

One more very strange thing that happens during the movie Split is that by calling Kevin’s full name out, you “summon him”. This is unlikely to work in a random situation, as the main personality would be the “original person”, and not some other one like Barry. So calling the personality’s name would not summon them, but remind the dominant one about a certain personality. Another thing that is not true about DID is that one can’t switch out personalities at will, and it can’t be identified by a casual observer because the personalities usually are not very different to the untrained eye.

There is no question about whether DID is real, but Split does not mirror it fully. Of course, it must be acknowledged that Split is a movie, and DID is something occurring in real life. The symptoms of this troubling disorder are still being discussed and researched. So, my conclusion to this article is that Split has some degree of reality, but could be more realistic.

Is Complete Unconsciousness Really a Thing?

by Carlo Carrubba

You lay down in your soft bed, you turn off the light on your bedside, wish your mom and dad goodnight, and as they walk out of the room, boom, you go out like a lightbulb.

So, are you unconscious?

Many people would respond yes to this question. But you may be interested in learning that sleep is not unconsciousness. When one is asleep, he or she may be aroused if the stimuli are strong enough, like your alarm clock ringing, or your dog barking. On the other hand, if one is unconscious, the brain is unable to respond to the stimuli around it.

But, unconsciousness does not work by “switching off the brain”. It occurs when the processes in the brain are in some way isolated, or in other words, parts of the brain that usually talk to each other get out of sync when the brain is unconscious. For example, when someone is sedated for surgery, anesthesia works to isolate the processes in the brain that keep you awake, like pain, or vision, so that you “fall unconscious”. In the early stages of sedation, it is shown that information and communication in the brain is massively slowed. Another interesting thing that happens is that areas of the brain tighten amongst themselves, almost “closing the gates to information”. This tightening impairs connectedness with distant areas of the brain.

Another interesting fact is that, even if someone is unresponsive based on behavior, they may be fully conscious.

This was shown in a study where 15 people were sedated and put in a “vegetative state” and 15 people were kept minimally conscious. It was recorded that minimally conscious patients do register pain more actively than those in a “vegetative state”.

The study mentioned above leads me to conclude that even if you are in a completely vegetative state, your brain still registers pain, just at a reduced pace.

This means that full unconsciousness is not really a thing.

Interviews With Ryaan Bhuiyan

Interview #1

by Ali Sediqe

Intro: Ryaan Bhuiyan has been the topic of mass controversy recently. I decided to interview him to see what his thoughts were.

Ali: What are your thoughts on how the fall festival went?

Ryaan: Well, I don’t know, it’s gotten less fun over the years, I don’t know if its because I’ve gotten older or because they’ve gotten rid of mini-golf.

Ali: Is it true that you are going to publish an article talking about the fall festival and how it went more in depth?

Ryaan: No, it is not true.

Ali: Anything else to say about this?

Ryaan: No.

Ali: What are your opinions on the new iPhone?

Ryaan: Why does the max cost $1,100?

Ali: I don’t know, I’m asking you the questions.

Ryaan: I’m an android user so I really don’t care.

Ali: Do you own Galaxy Buds?

Ryaan: No, I’m broke.

Ali: Back to the iPhones and Fall Festivals, do you think there was any correlation between how the Fall Festival went and the new iPhones coming out?

Ryaan: Yes, there was a clear correlation. You see, at the time the iPhone 6 came out, the Fall Festival was at max fun, but when the 7 and future iPhones came out (which were all worse then than the 6), it got worse. Don’t get me wrong, the Fall Festival is still good, it just hasn’t lived up to its past greatness.

Ali: Did you hear about how the Galaxy Buds have been reported as very uncomfortable?

Ryaan: No, they’re not uncomfortable.

Ali: How would you know, you don’t own them, you’re broke as you previously said.

Ryaan: I just guessed, I don’t really know.

Ali: Do you think people being uncomfortable wearing Galaxy Buds had a correlation to the Fall Festival?

Ryaan: No, everyone here wears Airpods or fake ones. Don’t insult my ONN wireless headphones. I got these bad boys at Office Depot for $9.88 (including tax).

(These are the ONN wireless headphones Ryaan owns)

After this, Ryaan stormed out blaring the Moana soundtrack on is ONN wireless headphones, but the sound quality was so bad, I could hear it through the broken wires. He told us he was going to cry in his room while eating Otter Pops and playing Just Dance 2013 on his used Wii with a broken nunchuck.

Interview #2

by Nash Malczewski

Nash: How are you, Ryaan?

Ryaan: I’m doing great, thanks for asking.

Nash: Are you ready for Halloween?

Ryaan: Thanks for reminding me about it. It’s probably too late to get a costume, but I’ll try anyway. I’m always ready for Halloween though. What are you being?

Nash: I’m gonna ignore your question. What do you think is the most difficult class?

Ryaan: History with Mr. Bobak isn’t hard, but there is quite a bit of homework. So far, my lowest grade is in English, but I don’t think it’s the hardest class. I think that all of them have their separate aspects that make them challenging in their own ways. Why am I being interviewed?

Nash: I’ll be asking the questions here. What’s your opinion on the current political climate?

Ryaan: I’m not gonna answer that, because I don’t think I’m allowed to.

Nash: I heard that you don’t like answering personal questions about yourself. Is that true?

Ryaan: Yeah.

Nash: What is your favorite videogame?

Ryaan: My favorite video game has to be a toss-up between Diego’s Great Dinosaur Adventure for the DS, or Just Dance 2013. In all seriousness though, I really like Breath of the Wild, Pokémon Black and White 2, and Mario Kart DS.

Nash: If you had 3 wishes, what would they be?

Ryaan: I want 17 more wishes.

I want a subscription to Hulu without ads. Maybe Spotify Premium

I want to delete the number of wishes I get by an amount of 12.

I want Mr. Feuerstein to admit that I am in fact the Student Chief/King of MAKWA.

I wish that I used my phone less.

I wish that there was world peace, and climate change was gone too. That would be nice.

Nash: How do you feel about the current year for BearPause?

Ryaan: I think it’s going pretty good. This is my first year for BearPause, and my articles so far have been pretty good. I actually have 3 this month, this one, my (joke) interview with Ali, and a review. I think that we should have more articles though.

Inside Bill’s Brain

by Ryaan Bhuiyan

Bill Gates. Business magnate. Entrepreneur. Philanthropist. Almost everyone has heard of Bill Gates, because of two main reasons; he was the co-founder of Microsoft, and because he’s really rich. Even though everyone’s heard of him, it seems like people don’t really know who he is. Director and producer Davis Guggenheim, most notably known for directing An Inconvenient Truth, decided to make a documentary about him, saying that he would give an inside look on his life and what goes on in that fascinating brain of his.

Over the span of 157 minutes, Guggenheim talks about Gates’s past. He does it well but he also shows some things that Bill is doing in the present, such as trying to fix the sewer systems in India and also trying to fix our climate, even if it means having to deal with political problems.

He also talks about stuff that happened in his past, whether it was personal, business, or even political. They talk about his relationship with his mother, and his relationship with Paul Allen. In the series, Melinda and Bill both talk about how they met each other, and their relationship ever since. It gets emotional sometimes as they talk about how he felt when the United States Federal Government sued him in an antitrust law case. People saw him as a monster, and he describes how it was the only time he “actively sought distraction.”

I wish that Davis Guggenheim had gone more in-depth about trying to understand the thought process behind some decisions Bill made, and how it changed his life because it doesn’t get addressed as much as you would like it to. The point of the documentary is to replicate his thought process, but sometimes it can get really confusing. Adding to my point, in the documentary, Melinda Gates states that her husband’s brain is just as cluttered as the apartment building he shared with Paul Allen when they were younger.

Another problem I have with this documentary is the way it is made. It’s frustrating how Bill can be talking about something, and just as they create suspense for a certain topic, Guggenheim decides to hop back onto another subject. Sometimes they are talking about a really interesting subject, and then they cut to something else, and then after a while, they come back to the subject, but all of my interest in that subject is now gone and it’s been moved to the one they just moved to. This strategy for documentaries works, but in this specific documentary, I wish that they would elaborate a little more on subjects before moving around.

Episodes 2 and 3 are great because they show him trying to fix a substantial difficulty while also talking about his childhood, and trying to do some of the “decoding” that the show is actually about. Episode 1, in my opinion, is not that great. Instead of talking about Bill, it’s talking more about the sewer problem in India, and why Bill’s idea for fixing it is so great. Don’t get me wrong, I’m fine with hearing about his plan, but the episode risks losing many viewers as it doesn’t stay true to what the show is supposed to be about.

This series shows Bill’s valiant efforts to fix problems in today’s world, but something always goes wrong. He tried to fix the sewage system in India, and they came up with a great model, but it’s too expensive. He tried to fix polio outbreaks in Africa, and numbers were going down substantially with his help. Billions of dollars were poured into it, but cases this year are still going up. Most importantly, his plan for TerraPower.

He had a deal with China, that could essentially fix our climate drastically. The deal blew up due to a trade war between the U.S. and China. He was sued by the U.S. government themselves, and he ended up being vindicated on all counts. And yet, he doesn’t give up. He just keeps on going. When asked, “Do you ever think that it might be time to quit?”, Bill responds “Well, sometimes you do have to say ‘I quit’, but sometimes you have to say ‘I need to work harder.’” I think it’s inspirational how he keeps on trying his best on everything he does, regardless of the struggles and hardships he faces.

All in all, I think that this is an outstanding show. I don’t enjoy the way that it’s made and the way that it’s put together that much, but all of that is forgettable when you see what the show is really about. It shows the way how Bill Gates is a man who wants to change the world and a man who won’t quit. This show was a masterpiece, even if it didn’t reach its full potential. The show ends with a quote from Mary Gates, Bill’s mother, that stuck with me long after I watched the show, even today.

“Each one of us has to start out with developing his or her own definition of success. And when we have these specific expectations of ourselves, we’re more likely to live up to them. Ultimately, it’s not what you get or even what you give…

It’s what you become. ”

Is Cuteness Really a Thing?

by Carlo Carrubba

Is cuteness an opinion or is it real? What factors in to make something cute? Why do you think your baby pet is cute? These are the questions I will be answering.

Many studies have found that the reason that we find things cute, or adorable, is pure instinct. Another reason is because human babies have all characteristics of something we think is cute. For example, a puppy.

It has short limbs, a small nose, and relatively big eyes. It can be kind of plump with baby fat, and is friendly and non-aggressive. The description I have just provided can be swapped out for a human baby.

Although you may think human babies are cute because they have evolved, it is the other way around. We have evolved to think that human babies are cute. This has programmed our brains to respond to anything that has the traits of a human baby protectively. Our response is triggered by dopamine, which is also known as the “happy chemical”.

As you may observe, humans get less and less cute as they age. By the time they are old enough to fend for themselves, they have exited the “cuteness stage”.

Cuteness is also why we are ok with eating some animals and not others.

So, even though cuteness does trigger dopamine releases in the brain, it is a tool used to bend our will forcefully into the small beings we can’t say no to. Some dogs even have muscles in the back of their eyes. They trigger these muscles making their eyes bigger, and cuter. It is sometimes impossible to fight their will.

All that I have just described is part of the kinderschema. This is a set of principles established by a researcher that was trying to figure out what makes things cute. This scheme is found in human babies, and it “spills over” into other species. Anything can be made cute by using the set of principles I have stated above. Disney animators have all made cute characters, and (even Mickey Mouse, an oversized mouse can be made cute). that means our bar for cuteness is set pretty low.

So, I have concluded that since we cannot control what we think is cute, cuteness is most definitely not an opinion, and it is a real thing. What surprises me is that even the most innocent looking creature has the power to instantly subdue you using nothing but its traits. Even a baby can get what it wants from you using the most powerful tool called cuteness.

Cuteness is a thing. Undoubtedly.

Peace out.

Are Psychics Really A Thing?

by Carlo Carrubba

We’ve seen them in T.V. shows, sometimes at festivals, and also lurking in dark alleys of the streets… Psychics. The question everyone is asking is “are they legit?” As we embark on this perilous (web)quest, we will uncover the truth about their “Magic”. Finally, for the question that no one wants to answer, have you been played by these “swindlers?”

An example of a very ancient Psychic can be found in the Aeneid. Although this person is not real, it shows how, from the beginning of time, humans have felt the need to obtain responses on the future. Since the beginning of time, Psychics have taken advantage of those who fall into their grasp. The example I am talking about is the Cumean Sybil. This ancient (fake) Psychics story, as written in the Aeneid, was of the like: Apollo asked for this beautiful woman’s love. She denied (so savage). She did ask for one thing though… she asked to see as many birthdays, as the grains of sand in her hand. (that she had picked up). She also forgot to ask for one thing: eternal youth. So, she retired to a chamber, in a cave, where she sat patiently decaying, foretelling what would happen to the people who asked for her help. However, she did know one thing…

The Cumean Sybil was a master of deception.

When warriors asked her whether they would return from war, she gave everyone the same answer:”Ibis redibis, non morieris in bello.” Which means, “you will come back, not die in war”. But what she knew that others did not, was that by changing the position of one comma, she changed the meaning of the phrase entirely. Her knowledge proved to be a lifesaver. If a warrior came back, she was successful. If a warrior died, when relatives came to her, asking for her explanation of what she had foretold, she would manipulate what she had earlier said, by moving the comma one word to the right. That would change what the sentence said, and the oracle would come out as “ibis redibis non, morieris in bello.” Which means “come back you will not, you will die in battle.” That is how one of the first Psychic took advantage of its “followers.”

To test whether Psychics are legitimate, I decided to look at whether Psychics foretold the truth, or by using tricks to subliminally persuade you into believing their predictions. What I found did not surprise me.

They use mind tricks. And lots of them.

The first of these is to predict a general version of everybody, as to try to widen their chances of predicting what you feel about yourself, or what you want to happen in the future.

That leads us to our second trick. These Psychics generally tell you what you want to hear, or what you believe to be true. These two “tricks” are combined into one, and they are called the Forer Effect. This phenomenon is not magic. It is merely the fruit of a vague description of an average person. Yet another swindle a Psychic or Medium may put on one of his/her clients is to let them do most of the work themselves. They start out by being very vague, and once they have developed a skima on their client, they get more and more precise in their inferences, and

Cont. on page 8

finally can make an educated guess, on what turn your life will take in the foreseeable future.

Apart from having the methods to be as vague, and accurate as possible at the same time, Psychics also have the tools to save themselves if they mess up. For example, if they say something very vague that does not apply to your client, they could branch off of what was just said, and make your statement even more vague.

Unfortunately, I could not find any information on the internet that said that Psychics are proven to have powers, and should be trusted 100%. Therefore, what I have concluded from my research is that there are no real Psychics. Merely talented actors shining through in

this kind of career.

I shall now answer the question I was doomed to answer since the beginning of this article… have you been played by these masters of deception?

To make a long conclusion short: yes. If you have ever gone to a Psychic, sorry to break to you, but, you have been taken advantage of. I wish you the best of luck in the future.

Peace out.

Are Empathy Canines Really A Thing?

by Carlo Carrubba

The way your dog looks at you with those “puppy eyes”, and even more so, the way your puppy nuzzles against your legs when they are requesting attention is unmistakably love. It has already been proven that dogs feel love (to a certain extent). The question that stems from this observation is whether they can feel what you are feeling, which is known as empathy. And for the question that no one wants to answer (or ask for that matter): is your dog simply incapable of empathizing with you, or does it react solely on instinct based on what it intakes from its surroundings (emotional contagion)…

One source that said dogs feel empathy was called “Your Dog Really Does Care If You Feel Unhappy”, by Stanley Coren. Quite an extensive title, I know (that explains exactly what the article is about). What this article conveyed was that pets do in fact feel empathy. The way this article presented its purpose was by citing past-conducted studies that were in its opinion’s favor.

One study conducted that I very much liked was one that not only proved the fact that pets (namely dogs) do feel empathy, but disproved all other possibilities. The way this study was conducted was very clever. Many random dog owning people were selected for this test. The dogs were put in a room with their owners, and their owners faked crying in a very realistic way. When the humans that owned the dogs fake cried, the dogs were curious and licked their owners, rested their heads in their owners’ lap and showed other signs of wanting to comfort their owners.

As earlier mentioned, this could very well be something known as emotional contagion. Emotional contagion is when a living organism with a brain complex enough to absorb emotions do so, and react in coordination with these emotions. This may be mistaken as empathy, but is actually is not. Infants (usually under two years old) often undergo emotional contagion. If multiple infants are put in a room together, and one starts to cry, the others are very likely to start crying. The infants do not at all have a reason to cry, but they cry anyway because of the emotional contagion phenomenon.

If this was the case, then the canine test subjects shouldn’t also approach the stranger who had no previous emotional connection with the dog. The surprising outcome of this test was that dogs did indeed approach the stranger that hummed in a peculiar way, as to fake crying. This outcome rules out all other possibilities but empathy. Research done to display results clearer than this cannot be done. I have done some surfing on the internet, and come across many websites, unfortunately for me, but fortunately for you, they all said the same thing. Dogs feel empathy.

This research I have done is hopefully as useful to you as it has been comforting to me. Your dog would do anything for you, anything to save you from unprecedented danger. They would take bullets, pain, unpleasantness, and even death for you to be happy, healthy, and living.

I am sure you would do the same. (canine empathy is really a thing… if you didn’t catch that)

Peace out.

Is Peaking Really A Thing?

by Carlo Carrubba

Is peaking really a thing? I have always wondered whether tweaking speed and technique at the last second really works to provide an extra boost at my championship meet, or at the final football game. The question I will answer in this piece is whether physically peaking as a result of your training method “is real” or if it is all psychological. This inquiry leads us to another question, are your adversaries better tapered, or are they mentally tougher than you?

 

In my own experience as a swimmer, I have noticed that when I was tapered and rested, I dropped massive amounts of time on my races. Tapering is also known as the process of gradually reducing something, in sports, this induces a feeling of rest, of wanting to run, or in my case, swim fast. To further deepen my point, the reverse happened when I went to meets not tapered or rested. I still had a desire to swim fast but did not always succeed. In some races, even though I had been tapered and rested, I was not able to surpass my times, coming very close by a fraction of a second. I have now read a few articles on tapering and realized that the strategies mentioned in these articles are exactly what my coach does in the weeks preceding the Regional Championships, as well as State Championships.

 

Needless to say, there must be a psychological component in tapering for race day, such as knowing that tapering automatically boosts your performance on race day. Having said this, does tapering work because of a psychological element introduced by routine? An article that answered my question on this was named “Physiological and Psychological adaptations during taper for competitive swimmers”; it said, “We hypothesized that psychological and physiological measurements would change during the taper phase and that these changes would be associated with improved competition performance.” This hypothesis proved to be 100% true, as the heart rate in swimmers was changing significantly to show improvement (decreased fatigue) while tapering. Mood and recovery improved as well. Mood was assessed by using the Brunel-mood scale, and recovery or stress was assessed using a questionnaire. This article not only proves tapering to have extremely significant effects on the body but on the mind as well.

 

The research I have done so far indicates that tapering is, in fact, psychological, and physiological at the same time. So, for the two questions I provided at the start of this article, peaking is not, in fact, all psychological but has many physiological traits, such as fatigue(heart, and breath rate, muscle tension etc.) However, swimming is a “mentally grinding” sport, in that, if one believes in all the work he/she has put forth in improving, then he/she will indeed improve. It may very well be that your rivals are mentally tougher as well as better tapered. Nonetheless, remember… no one is unbeatable. In conclusion: working towards peaking is not only a work of one component (body, or mind) but of both at the same time! So, as my coach says, one mind, one body, one beast.

 

Peace out.

Is Food Addiction Really a Thing?

By Carlo Carrubba

This may be the first topic to which I have the answer right off the bat. Yes, Food Addiction is really a thing.

There is another question, which I will provide the answer to: do you fall into the category of the addicted?

The first source I used was one that contrasted my idea. This was an article by Ashley Seruya. It brought up some very good points. First of all, Eating addiction, rather than Food Addiction is the term to be used when describing addictive eating behavior patterns.

Secondly, like many other quotidian human things, food triggers the reward system in the brain, for a very good reason: food keeps you alive.

Its third point was also a very significant one. Since we live in a world accustomed to dieting, many people are deprived of things like sugar, carbohydrates, and other. Deprivation triggers a more aggressive response to food, wanting more and more of it (hunger). This makes sense, we should indeed stop eating when we feel full, in other words, when all the chemicals in our body are brought back to the range which we require for our survival.

This is not what we see in real life for many people. Why is that?

This is what my second source explained. This article did not have an author available, but used sources like Yale University websites, and diet and nutrition sites.  Serotonin is a chemical associated with compulsive eating. This provokes many symptoms that could very easily lead to binge eating. Some of these are depression, insomnia, and other of the sort. Depression and insomnia are both very uncomfortable feelings, and binge eating “cures” them temporarily (for a few hours). Compulsive Eating Behavior is a stimulant for dopamine.  Since low levels of this chemical trigger an empty feeling, and dopamine is a chemical that can boost levels of happiness, binge eating may be used as a substitute for low serotonin: addictive binge eating floods the brain with dopamine, and many people use it to inadequately “cure sadness”.This source worked at understanding what the addicted feel. Once they have fallen into the addictive behavior of Compulsive Eating/binge eating, they may as well try to stop it, but they will not succeed without professional help. As for what they feel while they are eating: the rush of dopamine immediately follows their snacking. They need more food every day to have the “feel good chemical” in their brain.

Now, for the question few want to answer, do you fall into the category of the addicted to eating? If the above paragraphs did not answer your question, here is something that might: being addicted has some very precise symptoms. Some of these are very similar to symptoms which are related to drug addiction. The first is an empty resolution. Another one that makes eating addiction obvious is obesity. The last symptom that may help you to diagnose yourself right now is if you are making excuses as to why you feel like what I just described, but don’t think you are an addict.

I really do hope this was useful, and it all goes back to what I said in my Fortnite article. Something your mother has said to you many, many times. Moderation, Moderation, Moderation.         

Peace out.
