Want to know why it's so hard to accept a fact that's contrary to a belief you've held since childhood?
Seek no further than。 The Oatmeal。's excellent new comic which shows how something called "the backfire effect" can stop humans from accepting new facts, especially if they're contrary to their own strong beliefs. 。
The comic starts with some facts on George Washington's teeth, and then takes you through a smorgasbord of other hard-to-believe facts, some of which you'll have a harder time accepting than others. 。
Thanks for signing up!。

A comic may not sound like the best way to learn about the way your brain works, but this one appears well-researched and supported by multiple sources.。The Oatmeal。
, drawn and written by Matthew Inman, is known for its edgy comics which sometimes challenge beliefs that are commonly taken as facts. One example is its comic on Nikola Tesla, which praises Tesla -- not Thomas Edison -- as father of the electric age and, generally, a greater inventor of the two. The comic was followed by a fundraiser campaign to convert Wardenclyffe, Nikola Tesla's laboratory located in Shoreham, NY, into a museum. 。
