(Solipsism: a theory holding that the self can know nothing but its own modifications and that the self is the only existent thing.)

This page is a solipsist.

I've tried telling it, "yes, of course you exist," but it's all like, "How can I be SURE? Huh? Because YOU say so? You might be a figment of my imagination! I can't trust my senses! I know they can lie; I read it in a book!" So I mentioned that I'd created it and it was all, "You SAY you created me, but then, I might just be IMAGINING you saying that." So I figured I'd try throwing it a curveball, and said, "You say you're a solipsist. You learned that term from a book, right? A book you READ? With your senses? So, therefore, you're using senses you know lie because of what your senses told you! So if your senses lie to you, you can't know that your senses lie to you, because you can't trust your senses! Ha!" The page stared at me like I was a moron, and then I realized that nothing I'd just said made any sense at all. But it sounded good in my head. I tried a different tactic. "Maybe you ARE imagining me. But if you were imagining me, then you could stop imagining me, right? But you CAN'T! Therefore, I'm real." I smirked widely, knowing that I'd won... then I heard Bob the Invisible Cat in the background, and the world around me went dark for quite a while. As though I were in a sensory deprivation tank. As though I didn't exist... and then the world came back, and I see Bob's invisible shape against the clear air. I know he was smirking. I just know it. So, there I was, being outsmarted by a cat that just happened to be visiting off his own page who casually proved that I don't have any independent existence, and I get puzzled. I'm thinking I should be some kind of solipsist, but I'm a figment of Bob the Invisible Cat's imagination, and the only situation I can think of that comes close to that is Alice and the Red King, but she still thought she was real. I know I'm not. I want to pretend that I still exist, but Bob's growling a bit. I don't think he likes his authority questioned.

He's an Invisible Cat, the ONLY Invisible Cat, and I don't see him very often these days...

Squirrels are the secret initiates of the Illuminati, watching human actions and reporting them back to their masters, the ones who rule the world in secret. No one has seen their masters in years, the squirrels are not even mentioned in the Trilogy... maybe that's because their superiors, the beings having all the most important information on human activity are undoubtedly the most powerful beings on the planet, are invisible?

As far as I know, there is only one Invisible creature on this planet...

The squirrels must be serving Bob... which means that Bob the Invisible Cat is the most powerful creature on Earth!

No wonder his page is the lead-in to the Great Squid's website!
