And finally, this sort of explains it all:

People love talking about themselves, brain scans show

Am I an anomaly, then? :) I absolutely, positively, loathe talking about myself, especially in the context of soul-destroying “how was your weekend?” smalltalk (the sheer inanity and banality of which makes me want to throw myself off a cliff)

On the other hand, the brain activity the researchers discuss does indeed occur for me when I get to talk about things I’m interested in.
