I feel similarly to Anonus, but will not press the issue.
Also I think I just disproved the whole "reality is subjective" thing.
If it really were, wouldn't we all be able to instantly change our perception of reality at will as soon as we knew about that? Or at least make people functionally disappear. But we can't, I mean, I can't make you disappear at least.
If we are, we are talking to other brains in a tank.
I trust that these other entities exist, even if I can't objectively know what they're saying.
And you know what? That's inspirational, I've been kind of stuck in a rut for awhile, but somehow affirming that other people are indeed real has made me feel a bit better about myself.
Well I've been generally under the impression for a long time that absolutely no facts about the world we live in could be positively confirmed. But, I think that "there are other people" can be said with decent certainty.
You know what's weird? In my head, I've kind of rated my story ideas based on how "offensive" the content in them seems to be, and from the looks of it, Episode 3 of Stuck is the only one I'd give a PG-13.

I don't think the statement's meant to trivialize the internet, rather, to revel in its absurdity.
Nonsense! The Internet is our absurdity distilled.
If you don't believe me google any series of awesome nouns.
I'm sorry if I seem like a "concern troll" or something, it's just disquieting to me.

We can, but we can deduce at least a few objective facts about the world.
For instance, other entities exist and we can interact with them.

Oh Jesus, I haven't read that book since sixth grade.
Was a good book as I recall it.
Lumine: I was very into that series and the Redwall books back then.
I still have a copy of The Legend of Luke, which was the best one IMO.
That and the one with King Bucko.
Also for a very long time I used "vittles" as a word for food.
I don't really know why.

It's also my favorite. Odd.
