Tyler in the movie says "you are not your job, you are not how much money you have in the bank, you are not the car you drive" That being said then....what are we?

Rich white kids gathered on a website for rich white kid skiers who occasionally ski and host a small minority of fellow rich to moderately wealthy black and or native american friends who also partake in skiing as a hobby?

We are our thoughts and actions. Im sure theres some more existentialist explanation for this, but thats the simplest I can put it.

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise

I am Jack's wasted life

I am Jack's smirking revenge

I look like you wanna look. I fuck like you wanna fuck. I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I'm free in all the ways you are not.

Are you asking because you have homework that's due tomorrow and can't figure it out on your own?

Hopefully I'm not some schizophrenic dude banging an emaciated looking crazy woman in a $1 dress in a crack house in the middle of nowhere leading a cult of deranged followers...

We are persons, with personalities and thoughts and actions. Your job, pants, car or internet karma shouldn't matter as they're not you and don't (at least shouldn't) make you any different.

we are only a point of awareness. That which our nervous system allows us to experience.

We are the knowledge we have gained, the achievements we've made, and how virtuous we are as people.
Take away all our belongings, money, clothes off our back, etc... and what you have left is who you really are

that would leave no achievements or knowledge really.....


take away all our material possessions and we return to the very basics of being a human - the hunter gatherer lifestyle. knowledge will rarely help you there, only experience will help.

that being said, what are we? we are animals. we are the instinct we all naturally have from our history as hunter gatherers and warriors. how much do you know about yourself if you've never been in a fight? you don't know anything.
