At exactly opposite ends of it... making them.... wait for it.... opposites.

>You put Life an Death on the same "scale"

I don't have to put them there, but ok.

I'm trying to stick to the standard "English" definition. If we both try and speak the same language, it makes conversation a lot more efficient.

"A graduated range of values forming a standard system for measuring or grading something."

Well, yes, again, obviously I can be alive or dead or awake or asleep, but I can't be alive and dead or awake and asleep. Because they're opposites. The coin in my pocket has a head side and a tails side, but if I flip it, it can only be one of them.

You still haven't fucked anyone's mind but your own, I'm afraid.
