we get lost in our thoughts
far more often than
we get lost in the physical world,
and since
we rarely pay attention to the direction of our thoughts,
we can get lost for long periods of time without realizing it.

If you’re mathematically inclined,
then you could use the [pigeonhole principle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigeonhole_principle)
to describe hash collisions more formally:
> Given *m* items and *n* containers,
> if *m* > *n*,
> then there’s at least one container
> with more than one item.
In this context,
items are a potentially infinite number of values
that you feed into the hash function,
while containers are their hash values
assigned from a finite pool.
