If you like Lois in leather, check out the Family Guy porn ads on pornhub.

I don't surf porn. It's a good way to get viruses and other forms of nefarious code.

IT's safe to look at the ads through a window.

perception does not equal reality.

perception cannot be trusted.


therefore you cannot base your reality on it, as it is unreliable.

the only think that proves our existence at all is our thoughts.

however even though your thoughts can't be trusted either.

the very fact that you think proves you are there.

don't trust anything else.

as descartes said "cogito ergo sum"

Reality is perception ≠ "perception does not equal reality"

Our perception is all we have to go on as far as the outside world is concerned. Your thoughts can't be trusted any more than perception.

Your thoughts are distilled from perception, which is distilled from reality. They are connected, but cannot be interchanged.

i never said your thoughts can be trusted

but even if you are deceived in all of your perception and thought processes

you still think, that cannot be denied

therefore thinking is all you have

since you shall never be able to truly trust your perception an sometimes even your thoughts

how can you base "reality" off of such a thing?

small example

I was picking up my cousin from the airport last week

thought I saw her when it turns out it wasn't her

my perception was incorrect

when for a moment i was certain I was correct in my judgement

While I perceive the world

I would never base "reality" off of it

just as I would be hesitant to base it off of my thoughts, as I know how crazy they are

therefore just like descartes I can only base my "reality" on the very fact that I think

I think, therefore I am

simple really

lol

You got IT good, red man.
