  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Or does that fractional reaction cause the brain to shift forward more than it would if they had not reacted? Could that reaction lead to worse brain injuries? Makes me wonder.

You pull away from the object touching your hair, so I don't think it would lead to worse injuries. I suppose it could set someone up better using fents and jabs.
