Imagine something you can't imagine

People often say "I can't imagine that." I don't think they really mean it. It is a figure of speech. Can you think of anything you can't actually imagine? I mean really. As soon as you imagine imagining it there it is...

Try to imagine not imagining something for real. Go on try it.

You can't.

Mo and I agreed in email that his first example is really the only one and it's a good one. However my point is you can imagine imagining it, can't you?

You can always go more meta and then imagine.
