If something happened it happened. That's always a fact. If a tree 500 miles away fell at 1 AM today it doesn't matter no one was around for it. The fact is it still happened. I ate chicken for dinner last night, that's a fact. Doesn't matter you didn't see our happen. The evidence is somewhere in the small intestine right now I'd wager
That's irrelevant, it still happened and so it's a fact. That chicken was eaten. The proof is there. Third parties have no relevancy to a fact. I was born in a hospital. My birth certificate says so too. Just because you weren't there doesn't change that fact.
But not the experience itself. Thus if a plane fell from the sky and you witnessed it then it's a fact that's what you saw. There is no getting around that. The wording of your question band what you are meaning to ask are two different things.

An experience is both. The fact that you saw something is a fact, how you interpret it and how you feel about it is opinion.
People telling me my experiences are just opinions give off the "don't believe your lying eyes" vibes.
It's not OK to push your experience on otgers
Others
I just state my views.
They are facts.. because you have experienced it.. might not be the same for someone else... but it's a fact if you experience it
Neither. They are your mind's interpretation of a series of events which you were involved in.
Experiences are self evidently fact, because they happened.
Experiences are facts for those who have been through them; on the basis of these they form their opinions.
Facts. How you interpret them are opinions. For example, I was tortured. That is a fact. How I interpret it is not a fact.
Well it could be either it's really just subjective
It could be both. Sometimes , an experience can be misinterpreted.
My experiences are facts because they have happen to me that gives me good advice and opinions.
Whatever you experience is "fact." How you tell others about that experience is an "opinion."
Experiences are facts to the experiencer, and stories to the person listening to the experiencer
"experiences" can be interpreted differently so they are Opinions also
An experience is a fact. How you interpret it is an opinion.
anicdotal evidence i would say
Facts because they actually happened.
I would say facts because you lived them
Yeah but not everyone will live the same thing
Dont give a rats ass about everyone else. To me its facts. They can take my word as fact or buzz off
It's opinions
If something happened it happened. That's always a fact. If a tree 500 miles away fell at 1 AM today it doesn't matter no one was around for it. The fact is it still happened. I ate chicken for dinner last night, that's a fact. Doesn't matter you didn't see our happen. The evidence is somewhere in the small intestine right now I'd wager
@t-8900 yeah but you can't push your experience on others because it doesn't relate to me
That's irrelevant, it still happened and so it's a fact. That chicken was eaten. The proof is there. Third parties have no relevancy to a fact. I was born in a hospital. My birth certificate says so too. Just because you weren't there doesn't change that fact.
@t-8900 people have different experiences, so whatever you experienced, you can't say its universal.
For example, just because you experience says teenager girls don't like older men, doesn't mean it's truth, because I didn't have that experience.
Equally you can't put me in the minority, because you don't know if your experience is in the majority
Those are conclusion from an experience, not an experience.
@t-8900 it's based on experience
But not the experience itself. Thus if a plane fell from the sky and you witnessed it then it's a fact that's what you saw. There is no getting around that. The wording of your question band what you are meaning to ask are two different things.
This confuses the heck out of my. head haha
They are facts unless I just dreamed them.
Experiences are facts that lead to opinions.
