Now you're just trying really hard to sound smart. You exist, and based on your experiences, you can logically deduce, with greater efficacy than you can evolution, that others also exist. They behave similarly to you. They see you. You engage with them. They can be aware of you entirely apart from your awareness of them. They die without your consent. They are born without your approval. They hurt you without your sanction. If you, and you alone, existed, these people and things would bend to your will, because the universe would be nothing but a construct of your mind and therefore exist essentially for your benefit or amusement.
