Déja-vûs is a process that has been described by sciences often.
It is simply the process of reading and writing at the same time in your brain and thus producing a wrong cognition. It happens rarely and is something like a disfunction but does no harm.
In many discussions like this one you see that people guess and try to find supernatural explanations just like they did with religion. But often there are explanations available when people start reading literature instead of guessing.

I know this, too. There are Deja-vu and Jamais-vu.
But, the scientific explanation is nonsense in my opinion. They don't have actually an empirical base to state such a connection between some simply physical observations and a complex mental event like a deja-vu or jamais-vu.
I don't think that it is something supernatural, but the scientific explanation makes no sense IMO.
I had jamais-vus (never seen) several times where I remembered that I already seen a scene in one of my dreams, and I remembered that I dreamed it. And, I had dreams where I had the strong feeling that this will certainly happen, and it happened a long time later, when didn't expect it. Those are too complex mental processes to explain them with a simple hick up of the brain.

Well, off course the current scientific theory is just a theory... an idea of what *might* be the cause. They don't really know yet.
Who says that they are 'hick ups' as in something going wrong or being negative? It might as well just be the brain evaluating possibilities consciously because they might matter. According to most scientists there are no things we do not think about when we register everything that happens in our life, as in... if something happens our brain seems to registrate a lot, but only actively remembers a small percentage of that. If we remember 'pieces' of the puzzle that we already know relatively subconsciously, then that's where it might struck us as if we now know things we didn't know before.
When it comes to dreams, it always strikes me how they seem to somehow be important, which is why I think it has to do with the function of dreams, which seems to be processing thoughts, emotions and possibilities based on our everyday experiences.
What would experiencing a thought be like, when we're simply evaluating a memory of years ago?? Perhaps it would feel like having a déja-vû too.
Cheers

That's quite near to that what I actually think!

Then people that tells the "future" or special people must be a virus in the game that evolves and gains cheat codes making it able to make them really smart etc.. like that guy who can learn a language a completely new language in 7 days.. and nukes/earthquakes/comets are worms trying to crash the game, and blackholes are memory leaks :p
and handicapped people are Npcs who havent been set-up in the databases properly
dead people are Npcs that are getting switched with new ones with different functions and a different goal :p
dogs who chase their tails are entering the loop on free purpose, of course sometimes it skips what number it has already run in a circle and have to redo it, its also programmed into our world as a fun factor like in sims. :p
