Reply to comment by SmackEh in Realizing that there is nothing unique about you can be both very comforting and very appalling. by RubyTavi

I would posit that x number of people out of 8 billion have has the same thought I posted...and that it is less wrong than you think.

But they didn’t. You were the one to post this.

I said had the same thought...not posted it.

Every time I have had a comment to make in a thread I have scrolled through and found out someone else has said it. There is nothing miraculously unique about me or my thoughts.

Which makes you… unique.

Crazy to think that you share at least 99% of your genome with every human to ever exist, yet you were the one to post this.

I was just the first. (Maybe. I haven't checked the archives.) And now maybe the next person won't because I already did.

Exactly. So because we only see your comment, we know you are the only one who had the thought to post it and then did. This makes you unique.
