Are you real or not?

Post by Philosophy Explorer »

How you would determine that is your problem and it may not even matter to you. For myself I say I'm real.

This morning, my 11 year old pinched the fuck out of me. Sure as shit seems to me a real, physically discrete entity did sumthin' tangible to another real, physically discrete entity.

A sufficient proof for me, not only of my reality, but of my 11 year old's reality (and if he's real, solipsism is refuted).

There: two philo-birds killed dead with one pinch.

I have so many personae!
I'm pretty sure this one isn't real. At least, not completely real. Maybe 35% - less on weekends.
