Brain Rot is an informal term often used to describe a state of mental dullness or decline, usually caused by excessive exposure to something that is low-quality, mind-numbing, or addictive.
Excessive Media Consumption
Too much time spent watching dull TV shows, repetitive video games, or scrolling through social media, resulting in a feeling of mental fatigue or a lack of critical thinking.
Obsessive Interests
A fixation on a particular topic (such as fandom or meme culture) dominates thoughts and conversations, often in a humorous or exaggerated way.
Humorous Self-Deprecation
People may jokingly say that something has "caused their brain to go rotten" after spending time on trivial or absurd content.
Brain Rot is not a medical term, but rather a slang expression for mental exhaustion or a decline in intellectual activity.
