If you've seen it, what did you think? I wish I knew that story, in some form, earlier in life...

I liked it because it portrayed a strange story, related it to every human on earth, and simplified the whole picture. It made me think of how many people compare to each other, focus on themselves entirely, give up on life...when really all there was was to be happy with what you're doing, and to be the best you could(while there's such a huge number of paths possible with none being better than another); then you die...it sounds like a lot of stories, but the way that the characters helped to put it in a more graspable perspective.............that's what I enjoyed.

Meaning for me: I have (and sometimes do still) get caught up in competition rather than my real focus...when I die, I hope to have enriched the value of my life(by following what I want to do exclusively) and to be a good memory or helpful in as many others lives as possible.

It all may just sound like common sense, especially since most of you are ODB...but I have yet to see a person who is perfect at that.

I predict that, one day, it will be conventional to have (intimate) relationships with animals and even marriage to them. I just hope it won't be compulsory, at least in my lifetime - have you seen what else comes out of that end of most of them!
