If you think you have a grasp on reality, try messing around with what you know about time. This article may begin with the assertion that "time is real" (others disagree) but it proceeds through a series of unintuitive assertions - that the future is as real as the past, for example, that everybody experiences time differently, that consciousness depends on manipulating time, that complexity comes and goes, and more. Unrelated, but from the same author, see also this post on trusting experts.
