(A/N: Thank the lords that it the brief bout of utter madness was short. And confined to the comment boards of LTD, though I do feel sorry for those who saw the madness that was there.)

Uh huh....yeah....well tell them I don't need their lemons! I'm Cave Johnson! I'll get my engineers to invent combustible lemons! Oh? Oh! It appears you've caught me at a bad time. Freaking marketing and their insane ideas of what will "appeal" to kids! Anywho I know why you all are here. In part because i'm just that damn good! Ah, egotism, should keep it down a bit shouldn't I?

Okay, I know you must me asking yourself, why is this chapter called 'we must go deeper'? In part it was lack of a better name, and also because it's true.

For today ladies and gentlemen, I will take on the the enormous challenge of explaining "Subjective Reality".

Now before I go any further I'll ask you this, do you all know what The Butterfly Effect is? No or yes? If yes, please shut your faces while I explain. If no, take prior advice.

The Butterfly Effect was originally conceived in Chaos Theory mathematics,which I may or have not had my hand in creating. Moving on, the basic concept is that there is an original timeline.

Now let's say that in your childhood, you met a particularly scary clown. Now let's think about that one encounter for a second. Because of this one encounter, there will be at least 1 offshoot of your life. The first is you will forever Coulrophobia or fear of clowns causing you to be forever paranoid and frightened of clowns.

That's right, somewhere in the massive ever shifting folds of the time-space nexus there will suddenly exist a dimension because of that one encounter. And this happens throughout your life at certain crucial intervals too.

Another example would be if your father didn't make it to your 5th Birthday because he was working late. Take that scenario and let's add the first in there as well.

The first, if all goes according to plan, your father will appear as soon as the cake is wheeled into the room. If this happens you will now forever look up to your father as a sort of superman and your relationship will be fine and dandy.

Now let's look at the second scenario, a direct offshoot of the first one. The cake is wheeled in and everybody's yelling happy birthday, but this time your father doesn't surprise you by arriving. And you blow out the candles, make a wish, and pass out slices, play party games yada yada yada.

The day is coming to a close, your mother herds you to your bedroom and you promptly fall asleep, dead tired because of the day's activities.  

Now your father walks in and is berated by your mother, the two get in to an argument resulting in your father raging and leaving the house to drown his sorrow in booze. Your mother stays at home and cries silently while you shake silently in fear.

What was supposed to be a happy occasion turned into a horrible horrible memory.

This is The Butterfly Effect. Taking the original time-line and creating it a parallel universe or dimension in which the occasion drastically changes factors within your life.

Now how you ask, is this pertinent to 'Subjective Reality'. Well Subjective Reality is...basically the belief in that when you dream, that is the real you. That abstract madness that goes through your mind when you rest at night.

Okay, so seeing as how we're talking about dreams, I dearly hope you understand where The Butterfly Effect comes into play.

.....Okay i'll be honest with you here. The God of Chaos (me). Sewer of Discord and Anarchy (Also me). Is scared of that place.

There is no rhythm or reason to dreaming or what happens within those dreams. Actually there is.

Subjective Reality is....basically a day in a surrealist's mind. But maybe....just maybe it isn't. Maybe all that madness of candied tacos and faces made of maggots that appear in your wildest dreams and nightmares are "The Truth." Maybe it is what actually happens when you stare into the abyss, the true, unified face of "The universe" in it's entirety?

I take it by now you are probably scratching your head and looking at this with confusion in your eyes. I'll gladly oblige.

"The Butterfly Effect" is what happens when one particular memory gets...altered. This can also happens in dreams. I mean, most dreams are based off of what happens in real-life anyway.

Take for example, you are working in your cubicle and your boss is being a total asshat as he micro-manages and points out all the obvious flaws in your work. You will most likely have a dream that night about your boss be it you chasing him, making him into a baby with your all powerful kitten rod....or having sex with him. Hey don't kill the messenger I'm just saying the truth.  

"The Universe" often chooses to show itself within mysterious ways, like a certain over-powered deity. Anyway, the basic forms of this is Karma. Don't...ever...mess...with...Karma.

So following this thought, everything in your dreams...is right.

All that happens within the little world inside your head is real and it pertains to the massive ever expanding somewhat sentient being/thing that is the universe. The truth exists within our minds, this is the truth of the BIG universe. We in turn live within the giant star swirl of a galaxy within the giant circle. What if that was a dream within a man/women's head?

What if the universe that we have come to know as "FACT" is actually just a dream and that what happens in our crazy, crazy minds is the truth that someone somewhere is dreaming of?

What if that is what infinity is? Recognition that we are forever in a loop, that something somewhere will always be bigger than us, more vast, more immediate.

And to add to the madness, your dreams change every night, they are never the same thing. Such is the universe, slow yet ever changing. And such as our universe within someone else's mind is ever changing. And truth be told, there are galaxies within our own universe that prove wrong our whole concepts of physics, essentially setting us back to square one.

And the cause of this ever changing lucid ridiculousness?

The Butterfly effect.

And that concludes the sermon for today. If you have any questions please meet me at C-345 in the southern campus. As always "Madman's guide to the world" and "a change of perspective" will be available at the campus store.

Sweet dreams everybody!....And Pony!
