You come back as the drug dealer that shoots you in your previous life

If I can go back in time to get reincarnated, can't I just get reincarnated as me?

Who says you haven't already done that already? .... or a dozen times? ... or an infinite number of times?

Didn't we already have this conversation before?

What if at the end of our lives we just do that? Unknowingly. Infinitely. That's a fucking horror.

I'd rather be me the asshole than some other asshole.

Not if you have a good life, or can change things.

You eventually come back as you making that comment about you being the drug dealer that killed yourself.

And also at one point, you become me making this comment also. Eventually, you also become every single person that ever reads this conversation.

That Kurzgesagt video seems to be following me around often in my comments because its how I've always thought about life ... it's also a philosophy and idea that's been around for hundreds and thousands of years .. that the universe is just filled with living beings (or maybe even just one being) that appear, disappear and reappear in a nonlinear plane of time and space.

Until the next life ... it was nice talking to myself.
