Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
People can't imagine an apple in great detail? I thought this was just something everyone can do? Not only can I imagine it, or anything else perfectly, I can taste it, smell it, move it around in space inside my head...
I just assumed being able to do that was part of the human condition.
Look up aphantasia, it's when someone has no visuals in their head whatsoever, they tend to think more in concepts and words but never anything visual. And most people fit somewhere inbetween the two extremes (but it's still surprisingly common for someone to have aphantasia, they just don't realize it).
Funnily enough your daydreaming seem a little more advanced than mine, I typically struggle to imagine smells, but that might be link to just having a bad nose overall.
I can feel it too, the oily grippy weird skin of a freshly picked unwashed apple.
But I'm not seeing a red apple, I'm seeing a green apple with streaks of red, because I'm picturing my neighbors Apple tree.
