Brain and "Brain"

Why do brains “brain?” 


That was a clever question. You used the word “brain” as both a noun and as verb. If you had asked HOW brains brain, I would have said that the brain has not seen fit to release those HOW SECRETS—yet. WHY do brains brain? That reminds me of a Kevin Hart commercial where he checks his mailbox, opens a letter, and then starts shouting the news to all his neighbors. One of them responds rather mildly, “I’m right here. Why are you shouting?” Kevin SHOUTS back, “’Cuz that’s what I do!” Brains brain, ‘cuz that’s what
they do. They were designed to brain. The brain creates the mind, apparently rather early in gestation. As it grows and matures, the mind can now impact and direct the brain that created it. Go figure.
