Man Discovers Limits to the Human Mind

Seattle (NBp) - Today, Seattle resident James Edward Foobar discovered that he had reached the limits of his mental capacity. Foobar, who is a student at an unnamed local college, made the discovery during his calculus class.

Diagram presented to Foobar's TA illustrating the utilization of his brain. Though calculus has been allotted a sizeable portion of the brain, there is no further room for expansion.

"Yesterday, I was sitting there in class and everything was just fine," explained Foobar. "Today, it's like they're speaking a different language or something. That's when I knew that we had crossed the outer limits of my mind."

Researchers and philosophers have long thought that there was no limit to what humans could accomplish. Foobar insists that this is wrong and that the human brain's limited capacity will clearly restrict what people individually and as a whole can accomplish.

Jamie Qwerty, the teaching assistant for Foobar's calculus class, believes that Foobar is just trying to find an excuse for not attending the discussion section of the class.
