Alright, I don’t have any reason to believe they don’t and rationally I know they must, but I’ve never made any direct observations regarding this biological function. I’ve been in many men’s restrooms, seen the toilets, and heck even heard other men doing their business. But women? Nah, they just have little rooms that outwardly look like our restrooms, but who the hell knows what happens in those mysterious chambers?
What little lies do you tell yourself and partially believe?
That sufficiently complicated mechanical devices 1) are sentient, and 2) are trying to be as evil and annoying as possible without drawing attention to the fact that they are sentient (since that would invite repurcussions).
Of course, not all devices are equally evil - my car is usually nice, by my computer is just waiting for an excuse.
All the shit in my life *really is *worse than anyone else’s.
I also belive other people on the road, all the traffic lights, and even the trains are trying to make me late on purpose.
That all of humanity, that is every single human being, are all non sentient constructs here to give me the illusion of living in a world populated by billions of beings like myself; that each of you only become animated when in my presence, and have been preprogrammed to provide expected responses, with variation and adaptation, to a myriad of stimuli, again, initiated by my presence; that there is no purpose for this other than what I make of it, and that I, somehow, caused all of this.
Oh, I can intellectualize that it’s all hogwash, and a particularly unhealthy strain of solipsism but, deep down, yeah, I believe I’m on to you.
