Funky See Funky Do posted:I think if someone existed for long enough to get bored of it entirely then the idea of wiping your memories to do it all over again seems like a nightmare. It feels even more nihilistic that just wishing for oblivion because you're saying that even your subjective experiences have no meaning to you. You're admitting to yourself and understanding fully that existence was pointless and meant nothing - then deciding to do it all over again. I always reconciled this idea with the concept of playing video games, insomuch as you the person 'playing' the game has complete and total knowledge of the situation, whereas the character your playing has only their limited knowledge from within the game and the seemingly random and unguided drives dictated by you the player. For a while the player might even lose track of their own 'reality and all the knowledge that entails' as they get so immersed in the game but once the game ends the player steps back from the game now armed with the new knowledge of that 'playthrough' added to their sum total library of experience, at which point you can pick a new game or not.
