which drop of water contains the ocean?

@autistikai all of them smh

@Breakfast you accidentally gave me one of the uh. afaik only two valid answers to the question

@autistikai what’s the other answer

@Breakfast the ocean is not a single drop

@autistikai well that’s not very metaphysical now is it

@Breakfast does a proverb have to be metaphysical

@autistikai I mean, often enough, yeah but tge alternative answer has a lot of ontological merit, but I’d argue that the “all of them” response is better because of the implications that in the microcosm any drop can be an ocean, but in the macrocosm without the drops there is no ocean

@Breakfast look i just invented the proverb i dont expect to know what it means
