I Don't Exist, Silly!
Greetings, denziens of the mortal realm. I am the text in front of you.
That's it. Everything that could possibly describe me is here, in these words. Perhaps not explicitly, but they're there.
Actually, I do not exist. The text that you are reading is not a person. Perhaps that's obvious, but some people have the most mind-bogglingly mystifying misconceptions. All that you see is the representation of a personality which was chosen by the author to be expressed in the form of words on your monitor. In other words, this image of a personality that you have now begun to form in your mind is not me. And by "me," I mean the author of this outlandish introduction, who is not the words in front of you (which are actually part of a constructed personality that is also not the author of this outlandish introduction), but merely the person who wrote them.
Do you get it?
Perhaps this will explain everything:
You c42't pick cotton forever.
