Not necessarily. Who is to say they have changed to be something different from what you are thinking about? Why do you think it is necessary to talk to a person for them to exist? Do you not already have an impression of this person from talking to them in the first place? Is anyone really what you think of them? |

No, we are not anti-white. But we don't have time for the white man. The white man is on top already, the white man is the boss already... He has first-class citizenship already. So you are wasting your time talking to the white man. We are working on our own people. |

If I talk about Charles Dance I am talking about something else, something I operate and wind up and have to make an impression with and use to transmit someone else's screenplay. |

Paul Schofield said something like, 'If I'm not acting in a play, I don't really exist.' Those weren't the exact words, but he meant it's only when I'm acting in a play that I've got something to say about the world. And then why should I talk, when people can come to see it? |

Thinking of that movie 'The Artist'; if anyone ever needed to reach anyone, I'm just thinking they didn't have cell phones, they didn't have Internet, they didn't have email, so I always wonder how it was back then where you had to be home if you needed to get a phone call; otherwise, people couldn't get a hold of you. |

A lot of times, when people say hip-hop, they don't know what they're talking about. They just think of the rappers. When you talk about hip-hop, you're talking about the whole culture and movement. You have to take the whole culture for what it is. |

Everybody gets all worked up about trash talk but it is what it is - it's talk... You ask any player, honestly, if trash talk's gonna affect how hard they play, because if a little trash talk affects how hard they can play, it just lets us know that they were holding back or weren't playing harder or as hard as they could. |

The components of anxiety, stress, fear, and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the physical world, even though we talk about them as if they do. |

There are no problems that exist in the District that have been solved elsewhere in the country. Whatever problems exist in this city exist other places. |

My thought is me: that is why I cannot stop thinking. I exist because I think I cannot keep from thinking. |

Everyone is on the internet but they're not all talking with each other. There are groups upon groups out there, but they don't talk to one another. So while the internet brings everyone into a shared space, it does not necessarily bring them together. |

I had some weird dream about chicken nuggets that I can't really remember but I had a friend and she was eating chicken nuggets with me and her dog and then her dog learned how to talk and transformed into a person. There was another part of the dream where I had a friend that was in a play and I was talking to him about it and he was talking like he knew nothing about it. It was like he wasn't the same person that was in the play.

If you think too much about someone and you don't talk to them they aren't real anymore. They exist in your head but they're not the same person.

“A success story isn’t complete without the hard work and explanation of why we were successful. Did the success come easy, thanks to one’s talents, or was it attained through hard work? Both of these attributions can be part of successful self-promotion, but my research shows that emphasizing effort is more likely to garner a positive impression and people really want to know the story behind your success.
“For example, if you’re on a date and talking about a marathon that you recently ran, perhaps talk about all the training that helped you to cross the finish line. Or, if you’re in a job interview and are talking about a successful project that you led to completion, include a few details about the challenges along the way, and how you overcame them.”

But also, when a person does or says something without thinking it often seems more genuine than a conscious expression because you are seeing more directly who they are.

you might have adhd if you: procrastinate peeing bc you don't want to get up, then after finally getting up you walk past the kitchen, think about ravioli, forget what you were doing, so you make yourself a five-course meal, eat it, and you remember you need to pee, but when you stand up and forget again, and then you see you nintendo switch over on the comfy couch so you sit down and play 2 days of stardew valley, but the whole time you feel anxious and irritated for some reason and you think it's because someone's talking when YOU'RE TRYING TO FOCUS on fixing up your farm, and then the person you just yelled at realizes the reason you yelled at them is absurd, so the person asks "do you need to pee or something?" And then you're like THANK YOU YES, THAT'S WHAT I GOT UP TO DO AN HOUR AGO AND ACCIDENTALLY MADE A FIVE-COURSE MEAL!!!

I realizing how much the words of one person can bias the thoughts of another person. The random things that you say can affect a persons train of thought for an unknown amount of time in the future.

That is so cool. I don't know the answer to your question. If it exists independently of the person wouldn't it just be like a hologram or something? And if it exists relative to the person then everyone just has to have a device that messes with their perception.

Probably has to do with how you think about numbers. It's not easy for everyone to remember phone numbers. Phone numbers are grouped into parts. You have an area code, then three digits, then four digits. You might have an association in your head for area codes. I know when I think of a friend I think of where they grew up and then I remember the area code, then I just have to remember 7 digits. From what I read about memory techniques, it's easier to remember if you have an image or association. You could do something like, assign a person, place, and action to each digit. Then in three digit groupings, if you have a number like 517, you could say 5 is the person 'Santa', 1 is the location 'the zoo' and 7 is 'eating a cake' and then you'd remember that image and be able to get the number back from your mapping. There are lots of tricks like this for names, numbers, etc. I think people probably subconsciously develop some sort of less complicated representations and certain things ar...

I had a dream that I was a person that could fly and I viewed my entire life in 3rd person. I flew around and then found this raft near a large body of water. I stood on this raft thing and caught fish with my hands.

I've thought about this question outside of the context of a specific person who requires interaction. I think if you can acknowledge that someone is wrong and really know that they are wrong you can not let them bother you. If you think their actions are the product of some degree of misunderstanding you can try to talk to them and figure out why they're acting the way they are.
