Holograms are pretty sweet, though

Thank you physicists Leonard Susskind and Nobel prizewinner Gerard 't Hoof for confusing me even more.

I mean, c'mon. The universe is actually a fucking hologram?! Well, fuck me in the ass. Just when you think String Theory will answer some goddamn questions.... now I'm a holographic projection of things happening on some 2-D surface? Then... what the fuck dimension are holograms in the third dimension, and more importantly, how is a hologram in a world that's already a hologram represent on the hologram world's 2-D plain?

I want answers, and I want them now.
