Has anyone ever told you something that they thought was deep, but that you’d already thought about it? Furthermore, you’d thought it was quite obvious? It happens to me all the time.
This is what it’s like:
Simpleton: Have you ever wondered about whether aliens exist?
Pixelation: No, I really am quite certain they exist somewhere.
Simp: But, I mean, if you think about it, it could mean a lot of things. Could they mate with us like Superman? Or would they not even look human, like Batman?
Pixel: Batman’s a human.
Simp: No, Batman’s a comic book character, you Simp.
Pixel: Touché.
Then, after the simpleton proves I’m a jackanapes, he goes on to make an idiot of himself. Let’s watch:
Simp: And if they did exist, would they have souls, like we do?
Pixel: You don’t have a soul.
Simp: And, if not, what kind of a religion would they have to make them feel special?
Pixel: Hey, look! A squirrel! Maybe he’ll have some intelligent conversation.
Simp: But if they did, and we meet up in heaven, how would we make conversation?
Pixel: Come here squirrelly, squirrelly, squirrelly. Come here!
Simp: Man, sometimes I scare myself with how deep I am.
Pixel: That’s a good squirrel.
Simp: Too bad some of us will never be that intelligent…
Pixel: AAHHH!!! Get Off!!! Get Off!!! Rabies! He has Rabies!!!
