Rhetorical question inspired by Twitter

My question is simple. You're given a choice. Take the blue pill and wake up not knowing a thing, and you live your life as you always have. Take the red pill and see how far the rabbit hole goes. Well, WHY BOTHER WITH THE BLUE PILL? You can just turn around, walk away, go home, go to sleep, and wake up and carry on as normal. So what is the point/purpose for the blue pill?

Because you'd still remember what Morpheus told you that the world

I thought about that. But first off, Neo already knew the world was messed up

Up until that point he had not really "learned" anything he didn't already know or suspect anyway. And furthermore, how do we know the blue pill wasn't a trick, to kill him? If he was "the one" as Morpheus believed, then if the machines got to him (they would had he returned to his "normal life"), then the machines would certainly win the war and humans would be extinct. So either Neo comes along with the red pill, or is killed with the blue, as his falling into the hands of the machines would have ended humanity. I'd wager Morpheus wouldn't risk that happening.
Anyway, it's all rhetorical.

and he lives in squalor with two kids. He spends ever dollar he has on vehicles, has a brand new orange mid-engine corvette but rarely takes it out because he cannot afford the gas in it (or probably the insurance). He used his daughter's disability check to buy it.
I worked with him for a little while when I was in local gov't, he was on one of the crews and he was forced into retirement for multiple reasons, but they had to fumigate his truck when he turned it in, was apparently the worst of the worst.
So nah, I did not have seggsual intercourse with him. I knew his wife though.

and we can learn anything?
That would be cool to play guitar like Slash or EVH, and know to how to play a bunch of other instruments without ever having to practice.
