...of applying pressure to a blade with the intent (psychological) to slice through some vegetable and realizing not until half way through the stoke that in addition to the foodstuff you are cutting, your finger is also being cut into, because the time it takes for a chemical reaction signaling pain to travel from your finger to your brain is less than the sum of cognitive latency in decision making an the time to exert muscle control. In that moment the introduction of the mental object "finger" is imperfect, it merges in the mind with the notion of vegetable, especially if it poses similar resistance characteristic. For a second you are, in your mental model of the world, cutting a finger/vegetable (a term German would be much better equipped to address, is it any wonder Kant wrote in the language that reduces the entirety of our world into noun-sequences?). In that moment we achieve physio-mental unity with the vegetable. Literally in all our world there is no notion for vegetable, none for my finger, all that exists is the finger/vegetable and insofar as the human experience is concerned nothing is more real than finger/vegetable. The heideggerian nature of finger/vegetable's being remains at once a mystery and intimate like a lover. Truly this is what it means to be... salad fingers

also the fact that radiohead was influenced indirectly by BoC's geogaddi is wierd to me. I kinda considered them contemporaries.

Deep shit, man. I bet you were smoking a lot of weed and/or had a one too many drinks when you decided it was a good idea to use a sharp instrument in a way that could put your little butter-fingers in danger.
Maybe you'll be more careful, or not use sharp pointy things next time your ass is tipsy drunk... But probably not.
