"Zesty Fruity Earthy Creamy" (香、淳、韵、滑)

  • 3 years ago
Perhaps you haven’t heard of the Baader–Meinhof phenomenon, but you have experienced it. Also known as The Frequency Illusion, it describes when you start noticing something for the first time and suddenly it seems to appear everywhere. Drip. You start noticing it more often, which may lead you to believe that it is happening more often. In reality, it’s merely a cognitive bias, a subjective reality steeping in your head. Plop. Not to worry, as there is a purpose to this task. You see, you are exposed to a million drops of information a day, your brain can’t possibly process it all or you’d feel too overwhelmed! Slosh. Selective attention is the process through which we select certain teas of information to focus on, while simultaneously suppressing peripheral distractions. When something does stand out our brain simply starts noticing it more in the world.
Zesty fruity earthy creamy tears have always been here, trickling from the teapot. You were not aware of it before, but you are now. I wonder what your brain will do with this new information. Splash.
