I think simpler is better here. Just listen to Rene Descartes: [I]cogito ergo sum.[/I] I think, therefore I am.
You need to go outside.

And inhale some fresh air, since you've been rotting far to long infront of that monitor.
Yeah I think about this. Way too much. I don't want to, it just creeps into my mind. I know it's stupid. I know it can't be so, but as I can't prove it, I can't deny and therefore, I can't stop thinking about.
Nah I'm just bullshitting, you're a moron, start living.
Lay off the Matrix man, ain't doing you any good.

I was like this when I was 9. For a year I was crazy paranoid and then I realised I didn't care either way.
[QUOTE=Adsone;21181569]We don't know if we're all in some kind of giant simulator, and we'll never know, so why should we care?[/QUOTE]
This.
Also if you believe that one person or another is not actually real, there's no way it can be proven otherwise.
Stop flattering yourself OP, you're not clever enough to come up with all of this.
Funny thing is, being in a limitless simulation of some sort would actually be the most convenient and plausible explanation for everything in the universe.
[QUOTE=STeel;21184470]This.

Exactly. If you believe they arent real, there is no physical way to prove they are. If they hit you, you might think they were programmed into doing it.
Creepy, eh?
Bleep bloop bleep.

Pills here. There. Everywhere i want them to be. I can create pills with my mind!
I'm going to kick you in the balls, and right after that try proving that pain isn't real.
We are all just robots.
[QUOTE=Zeraux;21184858]We are all just robots.[/QUOTE]
Except for me. Im a robot......alien.
The truth is none of us can prove we are real. Although I have felt the same way, but I could be scripted into saying that, the truth is you could be scripted and I could be the one being fooled by all you entities. THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW.
[QUOTE=livelonger12;21181586]But that could all be a pseudo response. As mentioned earlier, "you" might not actually exist and "feeling" may therefore not ascribe to your post.[/QUOTE]
How do you expect us to prove we're real if you just keep saying "well that might just be the programming talking"?
[QUOTE=livelonger12;21181487]Recently, over the past few months - a concept that has embedded deeply into the roots of my mind, has over shadowed my beliefs in reality. I no longer believe that other people exist other than me and feel that I'm merely in a form of simulator, dream or physical environment in which everyone (including all other entities that appear self-conscious) are merely pseudo self-aware entities. I also feel that this could be some kind of game in which everything - the environment - is autonomous but features additional plug-in points from which I can provide input.
I'm wondering if anyone can prove to me that they actually exist against the above conditions and can also give me absolute proof that they're not scripted and exist as an actual self.[/QUOTE]
I sometimes get that, i dont talk bout it tho.
What if you have it wrong? What if one of us are infact 'real' as you say, and you are just an entity that has accidentally become self aware of its surrounding.
I say you are not real.

Oh, but you just did!
You're wrong.
This is [B]my[/B] simulation...
This thread is depressing, yet has many funny comments.
I am conflicted!

How can you if energy can't be reduced to a pure absence?
I thought i was the only one :ohdear:
Maybe your not real? What if I am the center of the simulation. You selfish cunt! Kidding
