if you haven't seen waking life, you definitely should.

there's one part in it that says "our cells are completely regenerating every 7 years. we've already become completely different people several times over and yet we always remain coincidentally ourselves."

i think its pretty weird to think about...

i just had a 3 hour (literally) conversation about this topic after thinking about this again today.
also, it's 2 30 in the morning here and im considering a rewatch.

my last question still stands. anyone know about the validity of the test talked about in that one scene (see previous post). it's really driving me crazy.

Yes. (i tried to describe in my post on the first page). after looking for it yesterday it was actually crossword puzzles but still the same concept. hold on, im going to find the quote right now...

damn, i feel kinda dumb now, but turns out it is true! the first link was the first thing to come up after searching "waking life crosswords".

http://www.mindhacks.com/blog/2007/01/waking_life_crosswor.html

it pretty much asks the same question i have, and someone responded with this, so it is a real experiment.

unfortunately i have class right now but i'll look into it more later.

woot.

I just watched it, it is pretty messed up.  Really makes you think of the nature of life.  I didn't really like the format of it, but the quotes are pretty good.
