[ WP ] A mundane situation actually had a hidden twist all along and you 're the only member of a 7 billion large population that realises this . Whether you do something about it or not is unimportant . The twist in this title is all that really matters . You were probably dead all along anyway .

I woke up with a reassuring sense of uniqueness and superiority. My individualistic, Western, comfortable, superior, egocentric worldview made every breath seem special. I was different, *they* just could not see it. How could *they* not understand my greatness and celebrate my above-average achievements? I had a high-school diploma! High. School. Son. But anyway... 
 
 I sighed and started brushing my teeth. The neighbours upstairs were loud as usual with their annoying walking. I bounced my basketball around some on the squeaking wood floor ( my little morning ritual, I know, it's *weird* ) and threw out bread crumbs from my breakfast plate out the window, into the wind blowing them over all the balconies below. 
 
 On my way to the office, I noticed something unusual. I had the superpower to change people's minds! So I made everyone love me. But then I wondered for a second about the ethical and philosophical ramifications of my actions. After all, I was a complicated human being with an above-average sensitivity. But then I noticed that all these women and men were not aware that I was also the last survivor of a long-lost time-travelling civilization, so I used my superpower to let them know and allow them the privilege of basking in my glory. 
 
 Suddenly, a semi from the opposite lane blew a tire and swerved into my lane, rushing head-on! To my surprise, it just passed through my car, like a ghost. I thought to myself that probably I could see dead people, like in *The Sixth Sense*. I looked at myself in the rearview mirror and saw that my face was all smashed up though. Faintly, the memory came back: I had been killed in 1987 while climbing a construction crane to impress the girl that always made eye-contact with me in math class but I was too foolish to understand that she totally wanted me and now I was dead.
