"Bird brain" nghĩa là gì?

Biết gì đây không? Photo courtesy: Carsten Osterwald

"Bird brain" = óc chim -> nghĩa là người nông cạn, đần độn; như kiểu "mũi thì to, óc bằng quả nho" đó các bạn ;)

Ví dụ
Maybe it’s too hard from my non-doctorate-earning little bird brain to understand, but what? That’s a number Ansorg and Do-Reynoso should absolutely, 100 percent be on the same page about. And it should also be accurate. So what gives, guys?

Full of bloopers (tình huống khó xử), bamboozle (lừa bịp), belligerence (thù hằn), and blackmail (tống tiền), the only thing new in the speech of the erstwhile (ngày xưa) ‘flannelled fool’ – the flannels are off, but the fool remains – was the stage, not the state of mind of an unabashed (không xấu hổ) Islamofascist who is deeply influenced by the mumbo-jumbo (ngôn từ khó hiểu) whispered in his bird-brain by his wife, ‘Pinky Peerni’, and the instructions dictated (đọc cho viết) to him by his handlers in the GHQ, Rawalpindi.

There are other design elements that aim to encourage people to play nice online. A “kindness” reminder pops up if you use abusive language in a post before it goes live and asks you to re-phrase it. Friar says this does a few things according to behavioural science: it slows people down, makes them read which brings them back to their cognitive brain instead of their angry "bird brain", and makes them feel they are being observed which can cause them to act better. Peanut, the social network for mums, has something similar, as does Instagram.
