> We’re all in the same, but different, shit. Can you elaborate on other cases where the words “different” and “same” are interchangeable?

I want a sandwich to eat. You want sushi. We are both hungry.

  This is a good point. The words same and different are interchangeable if you do not use either word

  Same same, only different, but still same, but still different.

It means that if you zoom out, things look more similar. Similar patterns, similar problems and solutions, but different components. All the various shades of red are all red. All news is engagement bate (if it bleeds, it leads), but every piece of news is different. You are in a forest in region X and I am in a desert in region Y, both could be dealing with the same problem of keeping warm at night. It's all different, and yet still the same.

  I didn’t ask for an interpretation of the post, I asked for other times where anyone would use “same” and “different” interchangeably as words (in a sentence, presumably) It kind of seems like the sentence I quoted was gibberish that’s short enough to seem vaguely profound. Unless somebody could give other examples of when those words are interchangeable (then obviously dogs is eggs), but as it stands it’s a duck pregnancy is optional type situation

      This seems unnecessarily rude. If you have examples of when somebody would use the words “same” and “different” interchangeably in a sentence that are so obvious that it justifies being rude, the bigger dunk would be to post them

It's the stupid law of averages. You may be the victim right now, and I may be the perpetrator, but over time you'll sometimes be the perpetrator (what, do you think you're perfect?) and I'll sometimes be the victim (you don't think I suffer?), and over time it all averages out. But just because you're the victim this time, you're getting all the sympathy. Is that fair?
