Subjective Reality: Reality created by those living in it. If there's no one alive, the world does not exist.
Objective Reality: Reality that is there regardless of the people.
Of course, everyone has their very individual subjective view of the world. Not having a subjective view of the world is plain impossible, regardless of whether the whole world exists objectively or not. (Take hot and cold for example - those are subjective feelings, and do not exist objectively)
After doing research on the subject and reading this thread I've come to the conclusion objectivism is a way of life that's similar in type to buddhism. Not my cup of tea, and I'd wish no one would preach for it as the One True Faith (like Striker said), that's extremely annoying.
