LINE OF THE DAY, part XXXVII

from Emiscary:

"Being cloned makes an oddly perfect metaphor for birth.
Congratulations, you now exist. Here's a fistful of problems you didn't cause, they're officially yours to fix. Here are the expectations of everyone who existed before you showed up, their desires automatically take precedence over yours because they outnumber you and/or outrank you within an arbitrarily designed pecking order into which you've been inserted against your will.

Oh! And be sure to realize that what you feel is effectively meaningless beyond what it makes you do. And free will is an illusion. Good luck!"
