Words.
A while back, I woke up and started to brush my teeth. As I'm thinking, one word just comes across my mind and it is a word but it sounded in my head so foreign. Can't remember the word now but it was something simple like "paper". I started to say the word over and over aloud "Paper, paper, paper, paper? Paper!" I was saying it like Iverson was saying "Practice". The word was not sounding like a real word to me, like it was just made up and had no meaning. I even began to spell it. Thought I was going crazy. I was like how is this a word? Who came up with this assortment of letters to make this word? I'm thinking of the letters to form that word and it just wasn't making sense to me and there are a million others words that can have that affect.
All spoken language just seemed so meaningless for a while.
Being the first person to ever do something come up with a way of doing things in human history.
I look at the recipe and procedure for baking and cooking. I'm like who thought of mixing flour and eggs together? I know some recipes were an accident but damn some of these others are mad technical. Was it all trial and error?
