    “ Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move
    as fast as the slowest buffalo, and when the herd is hunted, it is the
    slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and
    health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the
    weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate
    as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we
    know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and
    weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer
    eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more
    efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers. ”
