- That’s just thought association, classical (pavlovian) conditioning is about a conditioned stimulus creating a learned response, not a thought, eg if you were to be shudder every time you heard ‘Pavlov’ because you thought of dogs. - Way to ruin the fun, poindexter - Oh that’s just JackGreenEarth’s conditioned response 
 
 
- If I start to salivate in sympathetic parallel to the imagined hungry dogs, does that count? - Yes

- Not everyone thinks of dog, there’s a bit of a bell curve. - Pavlova.jpg 
- What else do there Pavlov? - I thought of the VR shooter Pavlov shack first. - I also thought of that one. - For anyone curious it’s Counter Strike in VR, basically. 
 
 
- That’s pretty normal. Like, less than sigma. 
- at which end of the curve resides the bellends? 
 
- So Pavlov was sitting in a bar, having a nice cold beer. As the next person came in, the door caused a bell to ring. Pavlov panics: “Oh no! I forgot to feed the dog!” - Pavlov is the Dr, not the dog. - What? Yeah, I know. A dog sitting at a bar having a beer would be a different joke. Read my joke again. - I know, I’m trying to make the Frankenstein joke - If you watch the movie, you’ll see that the real monster is Dr Frankenstein. - The real doctor is the monsters we met along the way. 
- And the creature is Adam Frankenstein - That’s FrankenSTEEN - SedaGIVE?!? 
 
 
- Intelligence is knowing that Frankenstein was the doctor, wisdom is understanding you don’t have to repeat it every time the subject is mentioned. 
 
- Actually Frankenstein was the incense scent 
 
 
 
 
 - Next you’ll be telling me that Schrödinger wasn’t a cat - How can you know if he was or if he wasn’t a cat? 
 
- Frankenstein is the monster? - Wait, the princess is Zelda?! 
 
 
- Removed by mod - There’s a dog?! 
 
- My daughter was watching Bluey the other day, and Bingo wanted some “Pavlova”. I immediately thought it was some reference to them all being dogs and Pavlov. - Nope. Turns out it’s actually a dessert named after a Russian ballerina that originated in either New Zealand or Australia in the early 20th century. - I think if any Australians see you you are in deep trouble! - Is Pavlova a national Australian treasure or something? Wikipedia seems unsure as to whether it originated in New Zealand or Australia. 
- I only knew of the Australian connection by reading the last continent 
 
 
- I’ve retrained on Pavlov’s cat 
- I always think of the VR game these days 
- I once read that reverse pavlovianism is the application of saliva to a dog’s mouth in the attempt to ring a bell. 
- That’s not what pavlovian conditioning is though?? - Sure it is, strong association through repetition. 
 
- I think of a VR-only shooter where all the kids try to climb on me because I’m usually the tallest motherfucker in the game. 
- That’s just how words work 
- Actually, Pavlov WAS the dog. Pavlov’s dogs were his friends, who accompanied him on his adventure to find a bell and drool on it. 
- I always add an ‘a’ to the end and wish I could buy pavlova in the USA. - Get some eggs and go crazy 
 
- Wife forget his name the other day… - ‘the Russian dude. Poblob. Polbob… Palbob… The dog guy.’ ‘oh pavlov’ ‘yeah whatever, close enough’ - Pob Loblaw’s Dog Blog
