Assuming Things Are Not The Way They Are Would You Believe That They Are The Way They Aren't

I don’t believe I would.

Is this the real life?

I am the Eggman-- Goo goo ga joob!

Naw it’s just fantasy.

Aren’t now, or aren’t then?. If the former, yes, if the latter, no.

Well, I feel more like I do now, than I did when I got here. Does that help?

Do you feel, feel like I do?

Yes. Or Never. Delete the one that does not apply. Or does.

I think I know-- I mean a ‘Yes’ but it’s all wrong, that is I think I disagree.

This is my new mantra :cool:

For the right price.

Hang on while I google it…

Could you - with a box?
Could you, should you - with a fox?
Sounds like a pesky paradox…

Well little Missy, that’s a mighty big assumption.

It depends. When you say things aren’t the way that they are, do you mean that they’ve always not been the way that they are now and we were just wrong about the way that we thought they were, or that they’ve suddenly stopped being the way they used to be and now they’re being some totally different way? It’s an important distinction, because whether or not I’m going to believe things are the way that they aren’t depends on whether or not they were really always that way all along or if they used to be some different way that they aren’t now.

Things, by definition, are always the way they are . . . or were the way they were . . . or will be the way they will be.

Things aren’t as good as they used to be… and they never were.

Isn’t the eventual acceptance of this premise engraved in the history of technology? Seems like everything we now know was the way things weren’t at some point. With that in mind, not only would I, I’d love to.

I think that I would not disbelieve the way things are not.
