| 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 :-]
'course, having NDT's understanding in-hand
allows the 'lesson' in such a hypothetical cross-
cultural funny-'movie' to be grasped.
Without it, the viewing might descend into the
trading of insults, or worse.
