On: End-of-Life Dreams

>> even though the analytical part of my brain consistently shouts this idea down every time I think about it.

"shouts it down" sounds like some rebeliousness or anger. Might want to figure out who that's for. ;-)

Well, who else but for me? I make a living by thinking analytically about technical matters with sound logics and clear evidence. But that part of me wants to think about stuff that is completely opposite of what I normally do. So they are mad at each other. Kinda schizophrenic, I know.

But that is just human, right? Frankly, I would be more afraid of someone who never argue or debate an idea within themselves than someone who does so occasionally.

I think they were just making a joke on the assumption that “shouts it down” was a typo for “shuts it down.”
