Smart man: “of course babe”

Me: “wait in this hypothetical were you always a worm or like turned into a worm by a wizard or something? Cuz in the first scenario I doubt we’d ever meet, unless I was also a worm. In the second scenario, would you have the cognitive abilities of a worm or would you retain human sapience somehow, even though that’s not physiologically possible as a worm. If the former, would you really still be you, materially speaking? You’ve been reduced to the brain function of a worm, I’d say as a human you’re functionally dead.”

Anyway I’m sleeping on the couch tonight.

    Well, that seems like a bummer. Asking this hypothetical as anything but a joke into any good for sure. The point of it is that it’s a trap question. That’s why it’s just a boomer joke again but updated to not be fatphobic. Also as far as worm/human relations go, I’m holding my own. I save em from the sidewalk and put em in some dirt. Worms are cool. I like literally all animals and will help em out when I can. Doesn’t mean I’m gonna be in a relationship with a worm.
