Have you ever thought of this

[SkatePopwar]

DUDE I THINK THE SAME WAY, but with colors, like right now im looking at black text, only what looks black to me may look red to you, but we both call it black coz you grew up your whole life hearing people use the word black for that specific color!!!!!!!

or like to you michael jackson may look white, but hes really black...... ummm wait..... not a good example...... but u get the point.......

ive thought the EXACT same thing!

[TheSmokingMonkey]

I almost forgot about that thought, but I used to think about that all the time when I was a kid.

Pretty weird.

theres no such thing as reality, only how the mind percieves it

[Black Water Park]

percieves what?

[Black Water Park]

Maybe explaining it like this.

What if you tell a chinese man to look at the cow. Him not understanding good english sees the horse but thinks of the word cow. From than on he will precieve the english word cow as what we see as a horse...

but regardless it is still a cow (whatever it is to be 'cow'), no matter what he thinks, i dunno... i guess "reality" is completely independent from us no matter what.
i really love disscusions like this

[rebgirl420]

haha MY GOD I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!! When i'm high I get into these debates about shit like this. Like how would you know if your dead if there IS an after life? (yes im atheist but still) or how would you know what a color is, I mean to me the green light looks a certain way but how do I know if you have a complete other view of the color green?! hahaha

[Abattoir Dream]

slightly off subject... rebgirl you look like someone i met before... i think her name started with C. - or maybe i was dreaming...? not sure...

[Cassiopiea]

Maybe everysingle thing we see, is completely another thing someone else sees but somehow the words are the same?. okay like this
preten i say "hey look at that tree" at what im looking at is the plant with a brown trunk and green leaves and is pretty. Obviously you know what im talking about, but whatever some people thought what we call a tree as something like..a trashcan. So when we say look at that tree, they say yeah its cool looking, but theyre really talking about a trash can.

its kind of liek being colorblind, but with words.
it can also apply to ideas,thoughts,anything. maybe everything one person looks at is never the same thing to another person.




i love pot.

My old philosophy teacher who is quite literally one of the smartest people in the world proved to us that this is a load of bollocks, I cant remember how or why because im a stoner, lol, but it just isnt.

Im not hating on you or calling you stuid because I used to beleive this exact same thing but trust me it isnt true, lol.





I love pot too.

No..I know its not true..well to the meanings of my example. Im sure everyone knows what a cow and horse is, or a tree. but what im talking about is deeper thoughts i cant explain, and used such simple terms for understanding.

i understand what you were saying, but i agree, it's hard to find the right words to describe it.

Mick Jagger walks out from a press conference, a reporter falls to the ground. immediately the reporters are on the phones, yelling out the headlines for their papers. one of them says "Rogue Reporter get's too close to Jagger!" another says "Jagger Fed Up With Press" and another says "Mick Jagger Attacked By Press".

eye of the beholder right?
