[QUOTE="BoldItalic, post: 7120413, member: 6777052"] You know, I've just re-read the first 17 pages of this thread and it's quite amazing the way people's posts there foreshadowed so much of what was to come later. There are subtle references to all kinds of ideas that were not going to have been seen again for maybe hundreds of posts, and yet there they are, right there. It's uncanny. It's as if people are psychic and that's kind of scary. How could you possibly have already known, in post #135, the precise colour of pink that I would be quoting, three weeks later? Out of all the possible shades of pink, you already knew [I]exactly which one[/I]? Is it some kind of conjuring trick, or are you truly prescient? I am in awe. Am I the only one here, who has no idea what is going to happen next? Are you all gods, toying with me? Have you all decided what I'm going to be posting for, maybe hundreds more pages, and you just haven't [I]told[/I] me? Do I have no free will at all? Is this whole thread stuck in a time loop? Is there no escape? If I break free from the shackles and flounce out of the thread to assert my humanity, will that have been preordained anyway? I don't know what to do ... *rolls d%* *gets 84* *looks up table* *table entry 84: [I][COLOR=#EE88DD]a bar of soap[/COLOR][/I]* *sobs quietly* [/QUOTE]
