I'm Confused About The Difference Between Reality And Perception

[Sigmund]

Belief.

Well played!

Been watching an episode every night straight for the last month. About 3 episodes left to go. Don't think we get any closure on that guy.

Hey, what can ya do?

It's gonna suck when you've watched them all. I went through it again last year.

David Chase did us dirty with that ending. I guess it could've been the interior decorater...

I haven't seen that movie came out... I saw the previews and I was afraid it might have been ruined by the current culture.

Reality is a constant like time. If time exists then the reality that was formed due to the passage of time exists. Your perception isn't relevant to the intrinsic nature of reality.

Einstein explained the relativity of time. "The length of a minute depends on which side of the bathroom door you're on."

Reality is what actually takes place. Perception is what media outlets you follow.

“What Type of Adhesive to Use to Connect Perception to Reality?”

Currently I’m using Real McCoy 12 year old single cask rum.

You weren't supposed to give a serious answer right off the bat.

But since you've outlined it very well, I'll just wait for the Schizophrenics to chime in.

You wouldn't understand us anyway.

From family to nation, every human group is a society of island universes. Most island universes are sufficiently like one another to permit of inferential understanding or even of mutual empathy or 'feeling into'. [...] The mind is its own place, and the Places inhabited by the insane and the exceptionally gifted are so different from the places where ordinary men and women live, that there is little or no common ground of memory to serve as a basis for understanding or fellow feeling.

— Aldous Huxley

If this was a philosophy board rather than a pipe smoking forum, I'd ask you to provide proof of that claim.

Oh boy how I've seen philosophy misused on pipe forums. Probably about half think they are philosophers or are deeper than they are, when they're really just...

Adam Savage of Mythbusters said it best: “I reject your reality and substitute my own!"

Which explains a lot of what’s going on these days...

Yes it depends a lot on how one feels about things.

Perception: There must be a replacement for HH Burley Flake.

Reality: There isn't.

Time doesn't exist, only clocks—it's a scam perpetrated by big watch to sell more time pieces, and perpetrated by your boss to not pay you on your poop breaks.

I don’t believe you.

And I believe that you don't believe him.

And I believe in dinosaurs. And somewhere those dinosaurs must believe in me. So I believe in me. Then I bust out.

 

[FLDRD]

I don’t believe you.

Neither do I.
