The following is a list of things that f**k me up. Before I present the list, I want to make a huge disclaimer: I am not dumb, I understand the basic understanding of all of these things. It’s just that if I think too hard about them, it stresses me out. Enjoy.
- Cells. Everything in the universe is made up of the same things, yet don’t look alike. I’m essentially a car, but not really. And that banana thing! Ugh!
- What do animals think and why isn’t there technology to fix this?
- Color blindness. I might not see the same color as you do. A desk could be dark brown, but a different dark brown to you than to me. We’ll never all see the same colors and I just can’t.
- “There was a point in our lives when our parents put us down and never picked us back up.” Don’t like that at all.
- Speaking of our parents, we’ve known them our whole lives but they’ve only known us for a small amount of time in their lives. Noope. I like to believe that when I started existing, so did they.
- When it’s 12 am and someone says “We’ll do that tomorrow” and then someone else responds “It is tomorrow” but it really isn’t tomorrow it’s today and tomorrow is a whole other day and what you think is today is really yesterday and you see the vicious cycle, right?
- Space. Just no.
- CDs/records. I don’t get how the information is transferred. How does a small needle read the music and produce the sound? What is technology!
- Where the weight goes after you lose it. I understand the concept of weight loss. What I don’t understand is WHERE THE WEIGHT GOES. Does it come out with your sweat? I just don’t get it.
- What happens after death. Like, are you aware you’re dead? Or is it just darkness? Is there really an afterlife? What about reincarnation? If reincarnation is real, where do all of your past-life memories go? How can you just forget, if you do forget? What if we’re all reincarnations of our past lives right now? What if none of this is real?
- Languages. Why are there so many? How did all the various languages begin? Who created the first word? Who decided which words would mean what and how those words would describe other words? I DON’T WANNA THINK ABOUT IT.
- Black and white films. I’ll never know what the colors were.
- The fact that I can’t remember anything before the age of 5 years old. There are literally years of my life of which I have no memory.
- What happened to Amelia Earhart? On a related note, what the h-e-double-hockey-sticks is the Bermuda triangle?
- Rainbows. Like, I get it but not really.
- Nowhere in the whole rhyme does it say Humpty Dumpty is an egg. Who decided that?
- Sasquatch and the Loch Ness monster. I just want certifiable proof they exist. I’m not asking for much.
- TIME.
- Deep, deep below the surface we stand on there exists a large fiery ball. What’s its purpose? Why don't we feel the heat?
- Where did it all start? What was before the start of the universe? The aliens have the answers, I know it.
