The discussion revolves around the psychological phenomenon known as déjà vu, where individuals feel they have experienced a situation before. Participants express their experiences related to déjà vu, including a reference to a movie that explores this theme, although the specific title and details remain elusive. The conversation humorously touches on the repetitive nature of certain posts and experiences, with some contributors jokingly referencing Yogi Berra's famous quote about déjà vu. There are also mentions of related concepts like "vuja de," which humorously describes the feeling of encountering something new yet familiar. The thread highlights a collective engagement with the topic of déjà vu and its implications in everyday life, including dreams and social interactions.

Weekends? What kind of artificial time-division does that entail? Do people restrict their abuse of opiates to Wednesday and Thursday?

Usually not. However, brain surgeons, airline pilots, etc. ought to.

In that case, I guess my brain surgery can wait until Friday

It's only abuse if done on Wednesday and Thursday.

Leave it to physics kids to make the same tired joke over, and over again.

Now, This is familiar. Physics peoples being picked on for their social underdevelopment. Why does society treat us subhuman?

Yesterday night I had a horrible dream within a dream which looked very much familiar and I felt I have had it before many years ago. It was obviously a deja vu. What is the term for 'a dream within a dream'? Double dream, or dual dream?

By the way, it seems there is a lot of deja vu going on around the world!
