Anytime stuff like this happens I try to reverse engineer the primal human benefit to the urge... but honestly I'm at a loss on this one

Some things just feel right. Like when I walk by the neighbour's house who has all the sunflowers out front, I have to touch the center of the sunflowers. I have to!

Curiosity + Dopamine

I don't think it's actually a primal human urge but something that a few humans did and it spread through meme culture
