A big mac? Well, I know it is 2 meats, 3 breads, and some other sauce stuff in it. Does it come with anything else? I don't really remember since I haven't had one in about a decade.
I do know that old TV commercials used to do close up spins of the top bun with the sesame seeds, but I can't really notion that outside of a quick flash. There is an
idea of animation, but I definitely can't hold onto anything long enough to "see" the food spinning.

One of my old roommates would comment how it looked like I was seeing the world for the first time when I woke up. "You wake up in the same place every morning. How are you looking so lost?"
I thought this was due to me moving so much when I was a kid. I'm not sure either way.
But yes, I am sort of surprised when I walk into my own place. It looks familiar but new at the same time.

Does this condition affect your game playing ability (specifically poker, obv)?
Variations in the human mind are really interesting.
The whole thread is pretty interesting.
I don't know if it affects my ability to play games. I was a winning player and played for a living for a short time. I never made a metric ton like many posters here.
I sometimes play video games with my roommates. They are pretty surprised at how fast I can pick them up and start to play competitively. Personally, I find video games boring to play.
I also played Magic before. Hated that game, but I'm not the proto-nerd who enjoys all things fantasy.
