    "Now, as realistic as this puppet is, it can never replace a real human being. After all, it can't think for itself, it can't dream, it cannot love; it can do none of the things that make we humans, human"
    Guys...what if Neil replaced Neil and just recently overcame these boundaries? First came Sounds, then Silence; the simplest aspects of thought. Next was more complex, Moods, and finally, it learned to Dream.

Well, in actuality, Neil Cicierega cloned himself as to produce twice as much music! As of recent years his clone has actually replaced him, hence him looking the same age! Neil now lives happily with Bill Watterson very far away in rural Virginia. Fun fact, Bill has no clue he's living with Neil as Neil lives in his attic as the squirrel king!
