So the woman asked me what I wanted on the sandwich and I said I do not care, it is for a duck, and she was like oh then it's free. I was not aware that ducks eat for free at Subway.

But no, everything that actually causes that infinite feeling, the circumstances of every infinite feeling, is so, so finite.
