Your tongue instantly knows the texture of everything you see. amirite?

My tongue doesn't because I haven't licked enough things to have a baseline reference for tongue textures.

How do we know if they have doorknobs? Or even doors?

Because it's illegal

Hopefully no one reads this while sitting on the toilet.

And yet, despite having never licked a toilet, thinking about it now, my tongue is telling my brain that we indeed know the texture of it

Your asshole knows the texture and that is connected to your tongue

I'll have you know that fresh concrete tastes salty. It's not salt but the cement absorbs water like salt does so it tastes like salt.

That's because your fingers probably already know the texture of things and they're colluding with the tongue

I'd say your brain assumes what the texture would be, but you are correct. Looking around the room with a lot of textures, like I assume a lot of us are doing now, and I am getting the impression of what a few things would feel like, even getting some phantom tastes despite having not licked most of them ever. I have heard smell described as tasting from a distance though so maybe that's why.

Your tongue doesn't know anything. Your brain is the knowing organ.

Perfect, my tongue's now a passive-aggressive food critic for my life decisions.
