For those who have AoK, the 'funny-words'
inherent attract attention be-cause they
constitute relatively-small instances of
TD E/I(up) that activate, first, the "inverting
reward mechanism" [Ap5] and then the
"True reward mechanism" as the 'nonsense
words' intended meanings are converged
upon via TD E/I-minimization.
It's a gentle form of the "nonsense sentence"
example of Ap6, and applies, in-General, to
=all= aspects of behavioral manifestation, not
only 'spilling'.
It's why light-'hearted' 'goofy' companions are
'fun' to have around - their behavioral 'goofiness'
constitutes relatively-small TD E/I(up) [relatively-
small 'instances' of novelty] that activate[s] the
inverting reward mechanisms as is discussed
in AoK, Ap5.
A correlated deeper thing is why such behavioral
'goofiness' doesn't communicate across cultural
boundaries. Differential experience, to the degree
of it, elevates TD E/I beyond the threshold for the
activation of inverting reward - so the generalized
TD E/I(up) 'swamps' the relatively-small TD E/I(up).
That's why it'd probably to begin Diplomatic
conferences with a showing of excerpts that are
funny from a collection of movies from a wide range
of cultures :-]
