Who knew there were people who can't visualize (and some hear) things in their mind?

Which image do you see in your head?

This could potentially be true. People who can't see or hear things in their head can, for example, get over the death of a loved and move on very quickly. Not because they didn't care about the person, but rather because their image just doesn't pop into their head. I'm not saying this in highwhey's case, but if a person is constantly seeking pornography and refried beans, it's because the visual of those things easily pop into their heads.

Makes you wonder what's gong on in Axe's head.

I'm surprised you mentioned the ******. I was beginning to think that you were gay and like men's rear.

I was curious to see how fast you responded after I mentioned your name. Over or under 2 minutes.

But answer the poll question, what number do you see?

I close my eyes
Only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Blind Lars Jorgensen's mother knitted him 25 pairs of socks: 5 striped, 5 plaid, 5 spotted, 5 argyle, and 5 with owls playing the fiddle. Being a teenager, Lars failed to pair his socks and threw them randomly in his drawer. How many socks must Lars pull out before he can be absolutely certain he is holding at least one matching pair?

So far HylianNightmare (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/member.php?62422-HylianNightmare) voted for 5. There's a significant difference between number 5 on the horse and number 6. 2% of the population have this Aphantasia. (Annoying name). I wonder what percentage of people have 5, 4, etc.

So you're basically saying that you're 6. I kind of expected MrFonzworth to be a 1, because he seems better able to move on from things.

This bugged me out, years ago, when I read on Reddit that a very significant percentage of the population has such crippled imaginations or visualization/auditory internal monologue, where they couldn’t picture/hear/create entire fictional worlds, narrate them, etc in their minds.

If I would have known that as a kid, I would have been much more prejudice and experience pity/empathy far more often, for many more people lol

Can’t imagine being on the other side. Although once I read that post years ago, my mind naturally immediately scanned back thru every single ex or hookup/FB, and so many made sense lol

One particular super pretty Filipino girl who wore color contacts, and was extremely socially bubbly, friendly, outgoing, but had zero creative or imaginative or decision making ability herself, and it boggled me, until that realization.
