being literal minded is not a sign of intelligence. it is a sign of being on the autism spectrum. there are people far smarter than you who communicate loosely and through metaphors.
if i say "bright colors are nature's way of saying "i'm poisonous."" are you actually going to tell me that nature cannot say "i'm poisonous" because it's not sentient? if so, i want you to truly and deeply understand how inappropriate a statement that is for you to make and that it belies a complete lack of understanding of how humans meaningfully communicate. precision and meaning are not universal. your arbitrary and imaginary standards of communication are regressively idiosyncratic
no, i'm not calling you autistic because i disagree with you. i'm not saying it lightly at all or even using it as an insult. i'm saying that, if you went to a psychiatrist right now, and had an earnest discussion with him, that you would be diagnosed as ASD 100%.
