A neuron triggers other neurons, those in turn trigger more neurons, given each neuron connects to 1000s of other neurons then it's reasonable to think some of them connect to neurons that trigger the parent neurons. In programming this would be akin to cyclical dependency causing infinite loop.
So how come brain just doesn't completely lights up, with each neuron stuck infinite loop?

Why do you assume that they never do?
A friend of mine has severe OCD and OCPD, and his brain very much seems like it's stuck on a loop. I know some autistic people express the same thing.
