      Deja vu is THINKING we’ve seen what we’re seeing at some point before. This is a tricky one because no one really knows what causes it. Some scientists think it’s just the brain to mistaking the present for the past dues to some dodgy wiring and some think it happens because of some preexisting but very similar memory trace. That, or it’s a glitch in the Matrix.
