If for just one day, all human brains on Earth revert to being 6 year old brains, what do you think would happen?

Probably not a whole heck of a lot.

I’m really not so sure that the vast majority of the brains of the people of earth actually evolved beyond being 6 years old.

A lot of fires would be set; a lot of barbie dolls would be torn limb from limb; a lot of heads would be cracked; and there would be a run on peanut butter and jelly—especially so now, since peanuts are in short supply.

Revert? Some people never left! LMAO!

JLeslie's avatar

Fluther would have a very slow day.

Well, I’d be running around playing catchy kisses again for sure……. :-)
Chase me!!! Lol…..... just the girls.

blueiiznh's avatar

Not much difference to me. I would still invite others to play in the sandbox and take turns on the swings.

Show me yours and I’ll show you mine.

And there would be a lot of miserable people in the local vicinity around me.

SpatzieLover's avatar

My son is 6 now…

There’d be a rise in the usage of these words: Poop, pee, fart, bum-bum and chihuahua.

Non-sense would prevail and snack foods would be depleted.

CWOTUS's avatar

Wow. What a huge increase in brainpower that would be!

Neizvestnaya's avatar

You’d find most of those making a party with whatever they can get their hands on. A lot of eating sweeties, letting water run and squealing.

mazingerz88's avatar

Lots of water guns will be firing at Capitol Hill.

SpatzieLover's avatar

The number one movie in the country would be this direct for DVD Halloween flick, too
Damn those commercials

ucme's avatar

Lots & lots of car crashes.

SpatzieLover's avatar

@ucme Ooooh look at that balloon in the sky!

tranquilsea's avatar

An absolutely GIANT game of tag and hide and go seek.

ucme's avatar

@SpatzieLover Dat’s not a balloon, I betcha a lollipop it’s de moon! ;¬}

SpatzieLover's avatar

It has eyes & it’s smiling at me

ucme's avatar

…..& look, a big cow jumpin right over it, yay!

rebbel's avatar

Americans would invade Italy to oust Berlusconi of course not for their delicious ice cream ;-)

SuperMouse's avatar

A lot of paste would be eaten.

SpatzieLover's avatar

Life would be lived as if it were a musical…My son is now singing a song about our cat

There would be song, dance, and bum wiggling with occasional outbursts of look at me spanking my own buns

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

We would all be coloring, eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and picking our noses.

erichw1504's avatar

CANDY!!! FOR EVERYONE!!!

erichw1504's avatar

@WillWorkForChocolate So, basically what I do everyday.

thorninmud's avatar

The US Congress would be all like, “It’s their fault!”, “Huh-uh, it’s THEIR fault!!!”

Hibernate's avatar

Free candy !! That would happen.

CWOTUS's avatar

@thorninmud so… no difference, in other words?

geeky_mama's avatar

…my just turned 7 year old keeps saying things like: “Everything should be free.” and “Wouldn’t it be cool if riding in a limousine were free” and so on.

So, if the world were run by 6 yr. olds for a day we’d see lots of things just given away (but also squabbled over) ..but kids that live in the countryside would be at a unique disadvantage..because who would drive them in to enjoy the looting of all toy stores and snack stores?

mazingerz88's avatar

@geeky_mama Yes but won’t it be fun for them squeezing cow tits and spraying milk on each other? : )

YoBob's avatar

@geeky_mama

Re: “Everything should be free.”

OMG, just what I’ve always suspected. Liberals really do have the mind of a 6 year!

mazingerz88's avatar

@YoBob No no no no no! Nooooooo! Not evwything! Just domdoms!

mazingerz88's avatar

@marinelife My pooh tastes yuck…

ragingloli's avatar

Millions upon millions of dead people.
Just think about how many people are in the process of driving a car, flying a plane or being in potentially lethal situations in general at the very moment they become retarded.

redfeather's avatar

That’d be fun!

erichw1504's avatar

Every job would have the summer off.

Blueroses's avatar

@thorninmud I think Congress would go more like “You’re a stupid-head!” “Well you’re a poo-face!”

Stores would run out of balls, jump ropes, yo-yos and everybody would rediscover the many uses for a simple stick.

MRSHINYSHOES's avatar

Nothing much. At that age, what can a 6 year-old do? Lol.

Sunny2's avatar

Let’s see, we can read, can’t do arithmetic, want to play all the time. I think things would pretty much stop. We could all look at butterflies, make mud pies, build forts, use a sling shot. We’d probably have six-year-old’s war and peace problems.
Senators would hang “Kick me” signs on each others’ backs. There’s be no grown-ups to monitor disagreements, so probably a lot of fighting with the bigger six year olds beating the scrawnier ones.
Don’t we get to vote on this drastic change you’re suggesting?

filmfann's avatar

Isn’t that what we did on the day everyone changed their avatar to AstroChuck’s?

Pandora's avatar

Everyone would actually go outside and get exercise for a day and we will all be crying for out mommies when we get tired, cold or wet or hungry.
Planes will fall out of the sky.
Cars will collide.
People will die since there will be no rescue workers.
Buildings will catch fire.
Kids will fight.
Someone will get their eye poked out.
Dogs will bite their owners for being a bit too obnoxious and make them cry
Some will be lost because they wandered away from home
there will be lots of spilled milk on the carpets or sodas
Peanut butter and jelly will also be found on furniture and clothing as children will wipe their hands on it to clean their sticky fingers.
Plenty of naked people walking around

Worldwide between 85000 and 90000 airplanes would crash. Six-year-old brains can’t fly or land an airplane, nor can they act as air traffic controllers. Millions of cars would also crash. They might be able to stop all trains.

blueiiznh's avatar

@mattbrowne so its a total of 175,000 airplanes? Last I counted it was more like 373,496.
