Can somebody find the control panel?
Ever have one of those days where things seem just a little bit funny somehow, like there’s some mysterious force guiding events? That somehow everything has been set up just to make your day seem a little “off”? Like maybe you’re just a character playing a part in some strange film or something? Well, maybe you’re crazy. Or maybe you just had too much coffee. Or maybe, as recent science suggests, you’re living in a huge holographic projection like on a dumb sci-fi show like Star Trek TNG. Personally I’ve suspected since the age of about seven that this was the case, and it’s a bit of a relief to know that science has finally validated my sanity. Kind of takes the oomph out of movies like the Matrix though, doesn’t it? I guess I might have figured this all out sooner if I had read this Scott Adams Dilbert Blog post where he decides he’s a hologram and points out “…the reason I don’t understand string theory, for example, is that there are no real scientists, only holograms…“
