How? Are you able to absorb how another person smells, see how another person sees, think how another person thinks?

Any concept of a group mind (see also Rousseau, Marx, and countless B-grade sci fi movies) is not feasible in the real world. We are distinct physical vessels, so there's always going to be some elements that separate us from one another and, yes, some part of self-consciousness.

"Black Power", old school lunches, saying Scott Stevens is on "some MOP shit" ((c) DonKnutts), Ricky "the Dragon" Steamboat, Chowdafest, Maceo Parker, "Be My Baby", "what you don't have, you don't need it now", 4/20, blonds in sundresses, "Hey! How ya doin? Sorry you can't get through. Why doncha leave your name and your number, and I'll get back to you.", trading Tinky Winky's sorry-ass NHL 2001 character to the Wild and putting a bounty on his ass, and Fred "the Hammer" Nietzsche
