The duality of opinion It is either small and large, depending on which of the other fingers serves as the ground of comparison. “Large” and “small” are definite features of appearance, and yet they depend on their context, on what is proximate to them. Another favorite example of Plato’s is the one and the two: each of a pair is a one, but within the pair it is a half. Each one only brings oneness to the table, yet when combined with another one, there are emergent properties of two-ness and half-ness. Usually, what appears true *seems* to be a property of the focal thing, but the property shifts when the thing is placed in different contexts. These thought experiments of Socrates demonstrate that something else is going on, that seeming depends on context. Could it be that we are just adroit at repressing aspects that disturb our comfortable self-assessment? Our usual dealings with the world hide duality behind a veil of taken for granted belief. Thinking begins by summoning into focal presence the otherwise tacit aspects of opinion. The duality that haunts opinion and is avoided in belief (pistis) becomes thematic in thinking (dianoia). Perhaps Socrates has so much interest in sophists because they are expert in exploring this duality and relativity present in all opinion. (The Euthydemus is a particularly good dialogue to take as an example.) Skilled sophists are able to manipulate the seeming-true of opinion by creating the contextual conditions for their preferred seeming-true to gain force. The mob doesn't think. If it did, it wouldn't be a mob. “Partiality” is when we privilege one aspect of this duality to the exclusion of the other. For instance, in giving reasons for a favored political policy, a partisan concentrates on the benefits of the policy to the exclusion of the costs. (Just listen to any partisan debate: one side will speak only of benefit, the other only of cost.) In evaluating our own virtue, our seeming-virtuous will be quite favorable if we contrast ourselves with the morally challenged. This is partiality. We tend to pay excessive attention to villainy, attention mirrored by the scandalizing obsessions of the press, in order to seem good to ourselves and others. Albert Camus wrote that “Each of us, in order to justify himself, relies on the other’s crimes.” There is also a bias called a “halo effect” in which a single fact or characteristic of a person or circumstance colors one’s opinion about the matter as a whole. Politicians who “look the part” have a leg up on the the one who doesn’t, even if the latter has superior political acumen. (We might also call this the Warren G. Harding effect.) Clearly, there are enormous political and moral implications at work here. We can easily see the biases of others; we are much more blind to our own. This asymmetry creates the common-sense illusion that seeming-true is sufficient evidence for being-true. Thinking requires that we confront this bias, not just in others, but most importantly in ourselves. In order to have any possibility of overcoming the deficiencies of the seeming-true, we must account for our own self-deceptive tendencies. Transcendence of one’s opinion in favor of knowledge requires knowledge of our own biases. P.S.-not from me, from a philosophy blog. That was beautiful These were my favorite parts I kept above. Thank you so much for sharing!

I'm pretty sure we are not being punk'd. I've known people like this in college, but not to this extent.
I'm going with some kind of mental illness component. And I have a mental illness, so I don't use the word lightly. If your brain is getting in the way of your personal and professional life, then there is something going on.
OP, can you not see how the inability to have linear thought is impeding your life? It is all about situational appropriateness. On your own time you can flow through thoughts and words and ponder the heck out of them and make up meanings. But when trying to find a way to support yourself or to interact appropriately with other human beings you need to be able to turn that off and get straight from point A to point B.
It is really fascinating to read your theories but I do worry this is eventually going to cost you your relationship with your partner, and without a means to support yourself you will be screwed.

Well one thing is clear. The OP loves to think about, and talk about, herself. I'd argue that she likes to be the focus of attention without every actually talking about her real mundane just-like-the-rest-of-us self. Out of all the thousand of words she has written in this thread, the only words that were actually about herself was when she relayed the everyday story of she and her boyfriend getting the mother lode of Monopoly game pieces and the conversation with her mom and her mom's friend, in which her mom forgot to include an important piece of information (just like almost everyone's mother has done or does on a regular basis). Everything else seems like a big-time defensive wall to prevent anyone seeing how just like everyone else she is. She makes a hobby out of talking about everything but herself on here. Like 1000 words about woo-woo stuff that has nothing to do with her for every 1 word actually about herself.

I just had a thought. Might take a bit of explanation so hang with me. *snipped to save space* I think I have heard of that before. So let me explore that: I don't taste, smell or hear colors. Because when I think of how red would taste, it instantly brings me to a red food like ketchup, or smell brings me to a red rose, or hearing red brings me to something that's red making sounds like a siren on a police car. I can feel colors. But I think everyone can do that, whether it's consciously or subconsciously. I don't sense sounds either ( other than hearing of course ) but I feel sounds. ( again I think that's an everyone thing ) I can smell words though, if they are about a word that does have a smell to it. Like for instance: someone just mentioned in detail about a jigsaw puzzle. And I took in what she was describing, and now I can literally smell that aroma of wood of a jigsaw puzzle. ( the ones that little kids fit in the shaped holes with the correct pieces.) But I don't think that has to do with association. And even though I know I'm not physically smelling a puzzle because one is not around me to smell, I still enjoy the experience. ( it brings me back to childhood ) And I don't know if this is known as a Synesthesia experience but I remember ever since I was a kid I would often explore associating one thing I was experiencing to another thing I was experiencing. For example: in 3rd grade when we had our science books open to a salamander and our teacher was reading about it to us, I was associating her voice to the picture of the salamander. Or if I was sitting in the car listening to a song and looking at some building, I would associate the song to the building. But these associations can't be explained in words. I guess it's more of a feeling association and a unification of sound and sight. And it's only in the moment. I don't keep the same association with the salamander to my teacher's voice or remember the song I was hearing when I look at that same building. I do stick to the association when I look at something that brings a song up in my head. I think it's been a while since that has been experienced. I sometimes associate people's name to sounds. I think my mom actually does the same thing. There's a certain way she says her cat's name to her cat all the time. And she's not calling her when she does it. I think she's doing it without even being aware she is or that she's not intentionally doing it. When I see letters or numbers I do feel that they resonate a specific color. I don't know if I automatically do it though. When I looked up this Synesthesia, there was a test about number and color association. But it sounded like anyone can do these associations if they focus on it. So maybe the not as common is the automatic association? The test said to put what colors you associate with numbers on day 1, then a week or something later to do it again, and then later do it again to see if they all match up. If they do then you passed the test. If they didn't then you didn't pass with experiencing Synesthesia. On something I read it said the majority of those who experience Synesthesia ( and yes I'm using the word experience all the time for a reason ) see "A" as red. I do too, but that's the first color of the rainbow, so maybe that has something to do with it. I see "B" in orange and "C" in yellow and so on. I see "G" in green ( G starts with Green though ) "H" I see as orange... Maybe I am associating it to fire ( H for hot ) "I" is blue ( Indigo ) J is green ( Jungle green ) K is a cooler color like a purple or blue. ( maybe for King which could be royalty and that's known as purple ) ( the word "Keep" I see as blue ) L is purple ( lavender ) I won't do anymore, I was just checking to see if I could see a pattern. It also said most see "Tuesday" as orange. I do too, and I see "T" as orange ( tangerine ) But maybe most associate Tuesday with being the 2nd day of the week. ( I know it can also be known as the 3rd ) And orange is the 2nd color of the rainbow so maybe that's another pattern. Well those are my thoughts. I just showed your post to her, and she immediately said definitely not the same thing. All of your associations are logical associations, typical of the normal brain. (look up Pavlov experiments)
I describe her "associations" (that's not the best word to describe them - it's less an association as it is a true crossing of the senses) as random. She doesn't care for the word random so she describes them as arbitrary. There is no rhyme or reason to them - they just "are". For instance, when she meets a person for the first time, she automatically sees them as a color. There is nothing in her past history to cause an "association" between the person and the color.
wiki link so everyone knows I'm not punking
ETA: If anyone has any questions about synesthesia I'm happy to answer them on another thread - don't want to derail this one any more than I already have.

I just had a thought. Might take a bit of explanation so hang with me. "clipped to save space" How old is your daughter? Has she read "A Mango Shaped Space?" by Wendy Mass? She'll be 17 in a couple of weeks. I just read the plot-line of the book and it would have been perfect for her when she was younger.

I have my individuality and similarities just like everyone else has. I know I have flaws and gifts just like everyone else. I ask questions and solve answers just like everyone else does. I have favorite foods, colors, music, books, holidays, animals and hobbies just like everyone else has. And I have my own dislikes just like everyone else does.

It was refreshing. And I think it is a hoot that your boyfriend has a thing for McD's while you hate it. THAT is the stuff that allows people to connect with you here. As someone else mentioned up thread a few pages, if you want to connect with people about the woo-woo stuff, this isn't the place to do it. All it does here is alienate people. There are new age message boards out there though.

There are new age message boards out there though. I do sometimes participate in the more mundane stuff on here. But I have never noticed my trying to connect with others on here. ( I do on the scrapbook related one though ) I recently participated in one of the disconnecting cable threads. But I wasn't relating with everyone, I was trying to bring reassurance and clarity to the problems people were expressing about the companies. I totally butchered it though in what I relayed from, just like boyfriend was afraid I would do. But it seems like whenever I participate in any threads here, I'm always replying to it with advice or debate. When I created this thread about duality and polarity, I honestly didn't think it was new agey or I wouldn't have. I was aware of the possibility of it being exploratory but nothing more than that. Either way it was still a thread I created with no intent on connecting with others on. ( but not necessarily disconnecting either ) It was more of a curiosity about: "I see it this way and I wonder if it's logical enough that others could actually see it this way too" I will work on expressing the aspects of me that allow others to connect to. Heck, even in the new age groups I am in, there are suggestions about taking a break from it every now and then and connect back with humanity. Maybe in the cyber space world this is the place I can do that in. Thank you for helping me come to this realization.

I hope your interview goes well today!! Fingers crossed that it ends up to be a good fit for you.

Oh for crying out loud. All this over McDonald's Monopoly stickers? He got them because the game is close to ending And they didn't want them to go to waste. That may be the logical reason. ( I didn't even know the game was going on or that it was ending ) But if boyfriend witnessed all of the customers in front of him not getting any stickers or the one after him, then it seems like there could hold a possibility that there was a deeper reason. He told me it's because the cashier thought he was the coolest guy ever. But I think he's just joking about that. He said no it's true, but I was too far away from it that I didn't witness it for validation. I was actually more on a logical level at the time and said to him the cashier didn't even know him. I guess if many can claim that they received a bunch of stickers from checkout too then I would be more supportive with the logical reason. But I felt it was deeper than that and I got inspired with an insight about inner gratitude. ( that I'm in the middle of writing ) I don't know about coolest, but he's got to be the most patient man on earth.

Maybe, but you went inside one, which isn't terribly new age, neither is having a boyfriend who eats there. Maybe the moon was in conjunction with Uranus. I didn't go inside one. The times I went inside one was when we were out of spoons when I worked at the gas station next door. That was over a year ago. The cashier that gave my boyfriend the stickers was working in a grocery store, not McDonalds. The moon is semi-sextiling Uranus. It will conjunct it in on Thursday. This has to do with Mercury because it's in retrograde so there's influence with miscommunication. The moon is sexting Uranus? Say what? *tee hee* I sure like this thread, don't know why I've been avoiding it! Definitely you seem comfortable with Air. Lots of hot air, all over McD's. I can't imagine what would happen if you went to Red Lobster and got a couple extra biscuits for free. That would be worth DAYS of discussion and speculation, I'm sure! I bet Olive Garden is mind-blowing, what with the endless salad and bottomless bread sticks. What does it all mean? WHY did I get an extra large fry free last week? I could ponder it all day.

I meant view as in what she said about my post. So I guess her "isness" about my post? And I don't see your daughter's experience to associating things as a view either. I do agree it's a fact about her. Thank you for the finger crossing. It is a good fit and I'm excited to experience it so I can bring all my customer service value and creativity to the company so they can experience it as well.

He considers impatience as an actual sickness. His high expectations do match that of one who is very impatient.

Lol yes, and all night long when it's full too, but it can get pretty emotional about it Red Lobster gives out free biscuits? I'll consider that as a sign for me to go because I love free biscuits. They have a better tasting vibe to them than the ones you have to pay for But if I didn't thank the Universe for the Olive Garden's salads and breadsticks I would miss the endless and bottomless meaning as to why I didn't

But see, it's not her "view". It just "is". It's a fact about her. Just like her eyes are blue and she's such&such inches tall.
I hope your interview goes well today!! Fingers crossed that it ends up to be a good fit for you.
I meant view as in what she said about my post.So I guess her "isness" about my post? And I don't see your daughter's experience to associating things as a view either. I do agree it's a fact about her. Thank you for the finger crossing. It is a good fit and I'm excited to experience it so I can bring all my customer service value and creativity to the company so they can experience it as well. My apologies, I mis-read what you said. And it makes more sense the way you intended it.
