        And the freshly minted alias of a troll is born and chirps in. Who were you before you became a clit? See you next tuesday.

    You typed this question.

    You would need at minimum a physical presence, to exist, in order to have done so.

    Good day sir.

      Technically yes. But are other people real is the question? Are we just brains in a jar connected to a matrix? Or is it more likely we are just self aware animals that try to find meaning in life because survival is no longer something we have to put 100% effort into.

      I'm putting my money on the self aware animal trying to find a meaning side of things. Though I do kinda hope for a game over screen after death. Wonder how many points I acquired?

        All matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. We are all of one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There’s no such thing as death, life is just a dream and we are the imagination of of ourselves.

          Did you hear of the one electron theory? How every single electron in every single atom is the same electron zigzagging through time.

      That only works for yourself. Other people it's a matter of debate, cause there are some people who are definitely NPCs.

        If someone is questioning their existence, then they are thinking. If they're thinking, then they exist.

          Or maybe they dont exsist. Yes while in physically writing this post I am existing, that doesnt snuff the argument though. Since you dont know if I am an actual conscious mind. You think therefore you are, but I cant exactly trust other peoples perspectives on who is real or not.

          For real though I'm just assuming everything exists, cause I it doesnt really change anything if I disprove it.

        Bad trips are just you freaking out because of the effects of the drug. Your mindset is extremely important to what the effects of the drug are going to be. It helps to just keep "I just dropped acid" on your mind and remember what you're getting freaked out about is a result of that.

        I never trip with a sitter and I never have bad trips.

    You exist in some form, but the reality of the world you live in is limited by what your senses can process.

    If you’re ever unsure if you exist, or think no one cares you’re alive, try skipping a couple of payments.

    You won't, in about 80 years' time. This site will probably be floating around the deep web somewhere by that time.

    unfortunately there's no way to know. you can be sure that your experience exists though.

    you're as real as anybody else, i think. we're all simultaneously real and unreal. Live your bizarre, incomprehensible little life as well as you can.

    The simulation makes you think you exist.

  • dappled

    Possibly. There's no real evidence to determine whether everyone exists and whether only one of us exists and "others" are merely our construct. If the latter is true, then by "I" you mean "me" and the answer is both yes and no in that you exist if you're me, and you don't exist if you're not me.

    It's probably best not to think about it too much.

    Ugh. Existential crisis does suck.
    I have had similar worries.

    Yes, we do exist, but it's still strange.
    What the heck is life?
    It's kind of something we'll actually never fully know.

    Everything exists if you can see it. For example, this very large and very awesome fudge brownie I'm about to devour exists, and I'm damn glad it does.

    Maybe I'm being too literal. I'm not good at these deep questions, bro.
