Meta What?

I realized this yesterday and immediately texted my husband who is the long-suffering recipient of my random insanity.  He puts up with my bullshit.  How could I not love him? 

I recently wrote the essay entitled Final Fantasy VII Revelations, which stated the game is a metaphor for Revelations, but then I realized that Revelations itself is a metaphor.  So FFVII is a metaphor of a metaphor.  It's a...META-METAPHOR!  We are the film.  The film is us.  The deleted scenes are the movie and the movie is the deleted scenes.  The very blog post itself is meta, as it is a blog post about a blog post that was discussing a metaphor about a metaphor. 

Those goosebumps you have...they'll go away eventually.
