okay not really... i walked into a trader joes today and they had been painting a border along the walls so there was a smell of paint in the store. the front and back doors were open (i'm guessing to allow oxygen in) and i was in the store for maybe 8 minutes. if it matters i drank a xxx vitamin water earlier (rich with anti-oxidants) and had drank caffeine before and after (reinforces the blood brain barrier)

do you think being in this store caused ANY brain cells to die?
 
Your brain cells die everyday, regardless of where you go and what you do. Besides, blood brain barrier does not protect you against gases that you smell. Those are small enough to simply diffuse through the barrier. But again, neurons die everyday, it's a normal thing.
