      The GSS asks Americans a wide range of questions, everything from free speech opinions to # of sex partners. Results often surprising. But I wonder: what if you asked instead what they think is the most common answer? Which are, collectively, the 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 surprising results?

      eg, AFAIK Americans overestimate how many LGBT/African-Americans are, and underestimate how common atheism is. So they'd badly misestimate how many would report those. But I bet there are far more surprising ones than those.

      Thought prompted by reading about musical anhedonia/colorblindness/aphantasia/anosmia/no-internal-monologues... At this point I expect people with no long-term memory: "What do you mean, you 'see' memories? Isn't 'remembering' when a voice describes it or tells you what to do?"

      One surreal example from https://www.reddit.com/r/self/comments/3yrw2i/i_never_thought_with_language_until_now_this_is/ … - do most kids... not think with language at all?pic.twitter.com/9MAWaPZABr

      Replying to @gwern

      Yes. It is an acquired taste, and probably emphasized by excessive reading and reflection. I suspect that in our culture, at least 20% of adults don't think with language, and in others it may be more.

      my thoughts were way more nonverbal a few years ago when coming up with new ideas and expressing them was not yet one of my main hobbies, and even now in conversations I often prefer showing a thing to explaining it

          and I very much enjoy the nonverbal proprioceptive mode one enters when bouldering (or in my case even when writing code, even though I'm pushing words around on the screen)
