Did you know that you can't live with a different brain?

In cases of replacement kidneys, livers, hearts, it's a different matter.

Someone is walking around with someone else's kidney right now.

Though, if you could live with a different brain, who would you be?

Really, it's what's stored in YOUR brain that makes you you, surely?

And don't call me surely.

Can I get seconds on that Kimchi Jjigae, you might say.

Thought you didn't like spicy foods, a friend might point out.

I guess it's just this brain, maybe it came from a Korean person, you'd say defensively.

Only it's behind your face and hair, it's difficult to wrap my mind around, the friend would reply.

Now, you know how I feel, you'd say.
