Different what if.

I would have put this in the past one about being a serial
killa, but figured it wouldn't fit.
I was thinking what if north was really down and south
was really up. It probably wouldn't make much of a
difference, but thinking about looking at maps the other way
seems to entertain me because there's no real reason why it
couldn't be the other way around. that i know of at least.

Has anyone else thought of stuff like this? Things that
really wouldn't matter if they were different and have no
real reason for being the way they are, but are on such a
big level.

Why can't right be left? Or left right? Am I really opening
a door? Or perhaps it should be "closing?" Why not call
sex something else, like Ziy, or Fork? Eithor way it's all
the same, and had you been raised using any of these words
you be fine, aside from sound like a freak...

im not talking about the word north meaning up on a map, I
mean the globe should have antarctica on top, just cause it
wouldn't matter.

When (if) I have kids, I think I'll raise 'em using an odd
word, in place of a semi-common word, so they wouldn't often
use it, and find out it's wrong, but often enough to sound
odd. Hahaha. Saweeeeet deal.

Use a word like "CD" and replace it with "PD." Or even
better, replace "Keyboard" with "Bong."

I've thought about this before. To sort of branch off of
what you're saying, I honestly DON'T think a rose would
smell as sweet by any other name. Would Autechre's 'rae'
and 'yulquen' sound as beautiful if they were titled 'hairy
butt' and 'yeast infection'?
