Oxford Professor says we live in a computer.

You know when you put two mirrors together facing each other and it's like an infinite number of mirrors going on and on? That's how we are. And the one holding our mirror has someone holding theirs, and so on, and so on, and so on.

I am going to enjoy dropping this bomb the next time I'm with my tripped out friends when they're on shrooms or acid. It's really going to **** their head up something serious.

 

[WalterKovacs]

I thought we lived in a bag of marbles?

no, fool we live in a locker in a train station

Or say that while you were playing The Sims, one of them kept staring at you and then held up a sign that said "We're on to you. We know what you're doing to us"

I believe in destiny to a certain degree, but I think moreso I'm a believer of manifest destiny . . . this makes me 20% more likely to tell this Bostrom guy to fuack off

We are a-live. We are a-ware.

Nah, just make them freak out and have a bad trip is all. And maybe go a little crazy, but hey...can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

I swear I wish i could create a bug that does that. I'd scare some poor girl ****less.

I had this exact same idea for a science fiction story a good three years ago.

Hey, I don't do that stuff any more, so I have to get my fun in some how. And the way I do that is messing with tripping people when I'm drunk.

I agree . . . I think whatever the secret to our creation is, it has to do within the realm of the theory of interconnectedness and that we are simply too miniscule to comprehend it . . . I guess the whole 'computer world' scenario is an analogy in its simplest form . . .

 

[EdRyder]

Yeah,...Its not a corporate super scam at all-
$60 Nikes for all my online characters!!

If only my SecondLife Dentistry service would take off already

I was a member of Cybertown a long time ago, which was similar but without real money interaction. SecondLife is neat if you don't get caught up in it.

I played around with it for a while, but I got bored.

 

[Apollo]

i knew it all along, the universe is one giant ****ing computer!!

 

[Noir]

Life = TRON!

 

[Drizzle]

They made this guy a professor?

This is something a crazy homeless guy would think up.

 

[Matt]

I think the fact that we have not all been deleted from the "simulation" for reading the suggestion we may be in one is proof that we aren't.

 

[vindrow]

Damn, there goes my theory of us living in a locker in the bus terminal.
