When you think, you hear yourself, right?

No, no you do not. In order to hear something your eardrums must pick up sound waves, thinking does not give off audible sound waves.

[Akigagak]

I can hear electricity.

[Neruz]

Hmmm, if I concentrate hard enough, I swear I can hear music as if it was actually playing somewhere far off.

Technically your brain can just simulate sounds like it simulates sight with your eyes even though there is no light. (dreaming)

There's no such simulation. What you think you hear is your brain interpreting the electrical signals your eardrums send it when they vibrate. Since the brain also thinks with electrical signals, it is entirely possible for it to make shit up.

Dreams are an example of this. So are Hallucinations.

However, in such cases you are not actually hearing the sound in question. You merely think you are.

Hey Toony.

Your brain is vibrating.

Like, right now.

[MrWiggles]

I can hear it.

So if i shake my head why don't i hear stuff? [/annoyingmode]

[MrWiggles]

Mostly because the liquid inside the skull is of such small amount that sploshing isnt major, and the skull is rather dense, therefor dampening the sound.

If we shake your head enough, you'll pass out and probably suffer brain damage if done enough. Its colloquially known as punch drunk. A common fate for life long professional boxers.

Also, if you heard that fluid when it moved, you'd hear NOTHING else.

I actually hear stuff when I shake my head... not just my neck cracking in protest, either.  I think it's the air moving through my ears.

There is no air inside your skull, in order to hear sloshing you would need air. If you have air inside your skull then you sir, have serious issues, and are probably about to become very, very dead.

I just finished the first season of code Geass, and I'm very confused.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The situation with Euphie seems very contrived. I can see Lelouch losing control of his Geass, but right when he's making very uncharacteristic jokes? If it had been, for example "I have to convince my people that you're not trying the kill all the Japanese" that would have made a lot more sense. And what happened to the girl running around with the nuke?

Some answers:

For Euphie, he was letting her in on his geass. He said what he said as an attempt to tell how he can get anyone to do anything, using her committing genocide, which she would never do, as an example.
 
And for Nina, watch R2. It reveals what happens.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

That's a big part of what I don't get. As much as I can understand his need to unburden to someone who knew both sides of the mask, so to speak, I have a hard time buying him showing his hole card in that manner. With his need to maintain secrecy, I would have expected him to Geass her to write something (to make his point clear), along with making her keep it secret. He obviously never intended to use it on her otherwise, else he would have never brought her in on it in the first place. The other thing that's bugging me is why Kallen got so upset when the mask broke. She knew he wasn't Japanese, and Lelouch was acting very suspiciously.
