The phrase: "I feel like" means the same as "I think."

I'm just as guilty as the next fool, but this does not actually make sense.

You can feel like eating a sandwich. You can feel like crap. But, you can't equate feeling something for thinking something.

Excuse me, but when I put my little feelers out into the world to generate information/lies/untruths/etc., they've brought back this notion of ridiculousness attached to crazy. That ridiculousity lives in the overwrought phrase: "I feel."

You (plural) do not. Stop lying (to yourself and me).

These are things that can be felt. They are not thoughts.
