I remember being like 7 and trying that out for myself by touching a lemon slice to different parts of my tongue. I think when I realised that it tasted sour regardless of where on my tongue I touched it to was when I first started questioning authority.
at similar age, a teacher told me there can’t be polygon bigger than 360-gon, because that would be a circle. i wasn’t of course in a place to fight with her, i just thought “wtf, how dumb is this removed?”

I remember many kids in my schooldays saying the same and being gaslit by the teacher into thinking they tested incorrectly.
Yes! The tongue taste zones experiment was my introduction to gaslighting. I guess I’m thankful for that.
