When you smell something, that thing is actually inside you. You can say you smell a flower, but what you’re really smelling is some volatile molecules from the flower, and when you smell them they’re already inside your nose.
Likewise, when you hear, the sound waves must have already entered your ear.
Even when you see, what you really perceive is light hitting your retina, which is inside your eye.
But when you touch something, that thing is still outside of you. Technically, can also be said of taste if you lick something, but then there’s a strong likelyhood of some molecules of the thing entering your mouth as a result.
Indeed Internet stranger, two things can never be true at the same time. /s
You’re saying that things can be both inside and outside at the same time? Topologists hate this one trick.
More than one perspective exists, I know it’s crazy.
No, I meant they hate you specifically. It’s completely unjustified, but topologists are jerks. They wouldn’t go into details, but they blame you for ‘The Incident’.
