“The World is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it’s real, because that’s how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round, and it has thrills and chills and is very brightly colored, and it’s very loud. And it’s fun, for a while.
Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they’ve begun to question, “Is this real, or is this just a ride?”, and other people have remembered, and they’ve come back to us and they say “Hey, don’t worry. Don’t be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride.” and we kill those people.
“Shut him up! We have alot invested in this ride! Shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account, and my family. This just has to be real.”
It’s just a ride.
But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that. You ever noticed that? And let the demons run amok. But it doesn’t matter, because, it’s just a ride.”

PS: Once you realize the absurdity, you’ll panic for a while, it’s normal. However, you have to make a choice; accept it, or be part of it.
