Comic #1619: 2009-10-09

Description

Here’s the transcription of the comic:

Panel 1: (A group of sperm-like characters is shown approaching a large egg.)

Character 1: "STOP! You don’t want to impregnate that egg! Sure, it’s what you’re told you want, but you’ll lose your individuality!"

Panel 2: (A character is responding to Character 1.)

Character 2: "Technically, I would combine my individuality with another individual. The Ship of Theseus problem tells us life is not a singular experience, but an ongoing flux of experiences."

Panel 3: (Another character contributes to the discussion.)

Character 3: "Well, we should define 'experience' vis-à-vis sensory input, and the possibility of intuitive understanding."

Panel 4: (A different setting with a professor and a student.)
