Opinion?

"Executive functions describe a wide variety of higher order cognitive processes allowing the modification of thought and behavior in response to changing contexts. Recent comprehensive quantitative and systematic meta-analyses on functional imaging studies in healthy subjects identified the inferior frontal junction (IFJ), located at the junction of the inferior frontal sulcus and the inferior precentral sulcus, as essential for executive functions. Lesion studies in patients are necessary for confirmation of this finding."

So how do we explain why people liked the show Honey Boo Boo? Would LOVE to see what part of the brain that comes from. o_O

Where do I sign up to smack people in the head and observe their resulting behavior?

For the same reason that people like watching Gordon Ramsey or The Jerry Springer show. People sometimes like to feel better about themselves by watching someone whose life is a total trainwreck or who are being berated and stressed out so they can think to themselves, "Hey, at least I'm not that person on TV".
