Dolphin brain is a metaphor for the mental connections/ train of thought made by a ND person in between conversation. It can be used to describe the thought process made mentally by a ND person in-between verbal conversation.
Imagine a dolphin jumping out of the water; that's the voiced thoughts/conversation. The dolphin then disappears in the water which is when the unvoiced thoughts happen, and the mental connections between a to z is made.
NT's only see the breach of the water which is just a faction of what is happening beneath the surface which is why confusion happen when a ND goes from talking about mango to orchids.

Get the Dolphin mug.As a comrade of potato, dauphinois is the feeling of being completely mashed and tired from a Not Not Massive Sunday. Your resources are depleted but the satisfaction of doing straight bits on a Sunday leaves you in a state of dauphinois.
