25 People Share Things They Still Can't Wrap Their Heads Around - Even After Multiple Explanations
Don't let the haters fool you- you too, can be a rocket scientist! All it takes is hard work, motivation, and maybe a little luck.
Sure, some people seem to understand the more complicated things with ease, while others need help to get their heads around it, no matter how many times it's explained. You know the drill: you think you understand it, you can explain it to someone else - but you just can't seem to grasp how it all makes sense.
Even the smartest among us have moments when our brains fail us, and we can't make sense of something, no matter how hard we try. That's why Reddit users were so eager to share the things they just can't seem to understand, even after multiple explanations, when CodeBlackGoonit asked, "What's something you still don't understand even after many different people explain it to you?"
It's a reminder that we're all human, and sometimes our brains just don't compute. Fortunately, the 20th Century has taught us that everyone has their own unique strengths and weaknesses - and if we take the time to understand our individual capabilities, we can maximize our potential.
Well, at least that's what we believe.
1. Why?
Why women are letting men who claim they cannot control their urges make decisions concerning our bodies. Not their business. And if they have so little self control that a child can "tempt" them, why are they in charge?

2. The American Healthcare System
3. How we keep voting for the same duplicitous corrupt as*hats that rule our countries and somehow, magically, expect things to be different?
4. Antisemitism, I get that prejudice is always illogical but I don't even know where to begin understand it
5. How to properly fold a fitted sheet.
6. How soccer is any more interesting than watching paint dry
7. NFTs
8. Crypto currency
9. Crypto currency
10. Math. Just anything more than the basics and my brain turns to mash.
11. American Football
How American Football works and why it's entertaining. I get that the burgers/hot dogs and the sexy cheerleaders are entertaining but I don't get why the game itself is fun to watch.
12. People buying stupid things
People who don't make a lot who blow all of their money on stupid things that make it look like they have money, rather than actually getting themselves ahead.
13. Money only has value because we agree it does, so why can't we just make inflation not happen?
14. DVDs
How a dvd works. Or how a record player works, for that matter. Like how does it transfer the little grooves to make… sound and light? Black magic.
15. "The stock market"
16. "The Krebs Cycle"
17. "The 3 sea shells"
18. "How the state can tax our tax return. I will never understand this."

It was supposed to be an educational tool about how capitalism and private property ownership funnel wealth into the hands of a wealthy few, at the expense of the working class.
Then a corporation copied it, rebranded that as a good thing and sold it as entertainment.
20. "Fourth dimension"

Think about describing something's location. 3d world is X, Y, and Z. So you could say "my keys are on the table, 10 ft in from the front door, 5 ft to the left, and 3ft off the ground."
But you go look, and they're not there. So, add a 4th dimension to your description, when were they there? Things move about in space over a period of time; time is that fourth dimension.
21. "String theory"
22. "How a camera works. And not as in I’m too dumb to use one but as is how the device functions."
23. "Magnets. Black magic f**kery."
24. "Finance. Anything beyond my bank account balance vs what I owe goes over my head. Mention interest and percentage and I’m off to lala land."
25. "The Monty Hall Problem"
26. "Aquateen Hungerforce"
Why are the Aquateen Hungerforce all giant fast food items, and why do they have a superhero team name when they just hang around annoying the neighbors and stuff?
27. "The greater than/less than signs"
I can't read them and am always confused as to which is what. Honestly don't care anymore, I made it this far this long without understanding them so I don't want to know now. But a lot of people still try to explain it to me, the alligator mouth really confuses me even more

Studying hard concepts or theories isn't just about understanding them - it's about becoming an expert! Think of it as building an intellectual foundation of bricks - the more you lay down, the more rapidly you'll be able to diagnose even the most complicated cases.
Just like a doctor with years of experience can make an accurate diagnosis with ease, you'll be able to make sense of complex theories before you know it.
