Yeah, it was a pretty weird moment when I realized maybe not everyone was giving new endings to thing in their head, or putting the characters of stories into new world, or putting themselves into the worlds of stories. The main question it always leaves me asking is: what do those people think about? Are they really think about every day life all the time? If they're not, are they thinking completely in the abstract?

It pretty much is like talking to an alien species, because as much as they can't understand where we're coming from, I can't understand them either. I'm not sure what the point of reading books or watching tv or hearing stories is if you don't in some way make it your own and a part of you.
