  1. I like the idea of Truth and Reality, where each individual person experiences truth in their own way. The sky is proven by science to be blue (or is it?!), but to a colour-blind person it may be green. The truth to them is that the sky is green, even if it is blue in reality. A good example is Moore's Puzzle. Copypastaed cos I'm lazy. Suppose you are sitting in a windowless room. It begins to rain outside. You have not heard a weather report, so you don’t know that it’s raining. So you don’t believe that it’s raining. Thus your friend McGillicuddy, who knows your situation, can say truly of you, “It’s raining, but MacIntosh doesn’t believe it is.” But if you, MacIntosh, were to say exactly the same thing to McGillicuddy—“It’s raining, but I don’t believe it is”—your friend would rightly think you’d lost your mind. Why, then, is the second sentence absurd? As G.E. Moore put it, “Why is it absurd for me to say something true about myself?” The problem Moore identified turned out to be profound. It helped to stimulate Wittgenstein’s later work on the nature of knowledge and certainty, and it even helped to give birth (in the 1950s) to a new field of philosophically inspired language study, pragmatics.
  2. I think that would be a power beer @Oversleep I thought caffeine would energise me and wake up as well. Not disappointed as everyone knows its the amount you drink that is important! *chugs a litre bottle. Still trying to find the optimal amount! @Erunion Personally I find Conspiracy Theories quite fun to read, if not very plausible. I love it when I come across people who genuinely believe some of the more ridiculous ones. https://twitter.com/hollyhaygood/status/862427130940063745/photo/1 I mean look at that xD Don't be quick to join them, there are plenty of things that debunk these claims as well, like science, logic and common sense.
