My Impression of a Doorbell Will So Fool You
January 4th, 2005
Don’t get me wrong — I’m not out to confuse you.
But when you’re sitting in the same room as me and we’re watching TV and then all of a sudden you hear the doorbell and you get up to answer the door (because it is your house) and then you get to the door and then you open the door and then you stand there dumbfounded because there is (surprise surprise) no one even at the door… I will have already fooled you without you even knowing it.
“I could have sworn I heard the doorbell ring!” you would say.
“Did you just hear the doorbell?” you’d ask me.
