Hmmm?

Let’s say you have an ax. Just a cheap one, from Home Depot. On one bitter winter day, you use said ax to behead a man. Don’t worry, the man was already dead. Or maybe you should worry, because you’re the one who shot him.

He had been a big, twitchy guy with veiny skin stretched over swollen biceps, a tattoo of a swastika on his tongue. Teeth filed into razor-sharp fangs-you know the type. And you’re chopping off his head because, even with eight bullet holes in him, you’re pretty sure he’s about to spring back to his feet and eat the look of terror right off your face.

On the follow-through of the last swing, though, the handle of the ax snaps in a spray of splinters. You now have a broken ax. So, after a long night of looking for a place to dump the man and his head, you take a trip into town with your ax. You go to the hardware store, explaining away the dark reddish stains on the broken handle as barbecue sauce. You walk out with a brand-new handle for your ax.

The repaired ax sits undisturbed in your garage until the spring when, on one rainy morning, you find in your kitchen a creature that appears to be a foot-long slug with a bulging egg sac on its tail. Its jaws bite one of your forks in half with what seems like very little effort. You grab your trusty ax and chop the thing into several pieces. On the last blow, however, the ax strikes a metal leg of the overturned kitchen table and chips out a notch right in the middle of the blade.

Of course, a chipped head means yet another trip to the hardware store. They sell you a brand-new head for your ax. As soon as you get home, you meet the reanimated body of the guy you beheaded earlier. He’s also got a new head, stitched on with what looks like plastic weed-trimmer line, and it’s wearing that unique expression of “you’re the man who killed me last winter” resentment that one so rarely encounters in everyday life.

You brandish your ax. The guy takes a long look at the weapon with his squishy, rotting eyes and in a gargly voice he screams, “That’s the same ax that beheaded me!”

IS HE RIGHT?

no
I figure it out I am good

No, but wtf. 

[Deathpuddle]

No, but wtf.

I think the answer is...physically its not. But philosophically, spiritually or metaphysically it's "the same" axe? Since to you it's still your trusty axe.

Trusty, maybe until the new head doesn't work as well or chips more quickly.

From what I understood,

1st time: he kills the dude and the handle breaks so he replaces the handle (same axe head though).
2nd time: he kills the thing and the head breaks so he replaces the head.

That means it is a brand new axe that had none of it's parts in killing the man. If, for argument's sake, you say that the head that was stitched on is the monster's head (the one he just killed), then technically the handle of the axe would still be the same as the one that it was killed with and he mistook the new head of the axe as being the same as the old one due to it being of the same cheap kind so they'd probably look identical. You could also argue that since its the same generic, cheap axe that it ends up looking the same as the original and then the guy wouldve mistaken the axe as the one that he was killed with.

Quick question, when beheading someone do you use your bare hands?

obviously you did not get the joke/reference :c

but the answer is still no it's not the same axe

Were you quoting him?

[Rumi]

Were you quoting him?

he is probably quoting same thing as I was

[Monti]

I feel like the quality of that axe is shit.

This applies same principle as the story with
U have a boat made out of 100wood pieces
Each year one wood piece looks older and u replace it puting the replaced piece aside
After 100 years u replaced each piece of the boat
Is it same boat?
With the pieces u put aside u build back the boat
U will have same boat 2 times? Are those 2 boats actually same 1boat from start?
Depending on how u look at it it has many answers
The answer is up to ur thinking

I'd be like 'it's just an axe bro who cares details schmetails"
