One of the most silly ramifications of a theory of an infinite number of universes finally made it sink in. You've likely heard of the Infinite Monkey Theorem, which states that "infinite monkeys typing on an infinite number of typewriters will eventually reproduce the works of shakespeare." You might also have heard of the Simulation Hypothesis, which argues that reality can be, and very likely is, merely a simulation in a sufficiently advanced computer.
The ramification of these two theories combined is that if there are an infinite number of universes, then there is a universe in which all of known reality is merely a simulation which has been created by babies typing randomly on keyboards.
The entirety of your existence is the result of a toddler banging on a typewriter. Life makes so much more sense now, doesn't it?
