Holy crap I said something that sounded like real philosophy

I said this in another thread, and it happened completely on accident. I have been reading Anselm lately and I think his overuse of complex sentences has driven me insane. But wow, I sure am stoked. This sounds like one of those sentences I would read in a philosophy book that I usually spend several minutes trying to figure out:

](*,)

I wanted to kick my own ass after re-reading this, and for some reason this is liberating.

I sluffed off all the way through college and stumbled to my bachelor’s degree in philosophy, and now that I am out, I am facing the pretentious bullcrap without the pressure to embrace it, and feel that I can combine what I have learned with my disgust for stupidly complex clauses and phraseology to write more effectively.

I am beginning to appreciate the fact that I slacked off a lot in college. It’s best not to get too sucked in, but to at least get the postcard.

the essence of slacking is a secondary quality to the fastidious when it is of first concern to the acutely indolent…

Yay - Let’s try to sound like philosophers !!! Doesn’t actually have to make sense, but it has to sound like it.

Okay.

I can’t.

The fulminant enthalpic results of digital malposition are manifestly deleterious to the extreme exterior membrane.

I keep trying to… communicate something.

I wast trying for “don’t touch the stove”.

There used to be at time when being a good philosopher meant having another philosopher write books interpreting your books. I’m tempted to think these fags were emulating Pythia, but that’d be wrong and mean (although I know I probably wouldn’t be wrong if I said that about Heraclitus). They were probably just following some intellectual memetic remnant from ancient Greece which says that knowledge is revealed and that it’s too complicated for people who don’t monastically devote their time deciphering this knowledge revealed through the prophet’s work.

I dunno…

I haven’t monastically devoted my time to ANYTHING and I still pretty much understood what you said…

Holy shit.

You just returned to the thread and responded to something someone wrote to you like a year and a half ago as if it were only yesterday.

You just fucking blew my mind with the deepness of that.

I dunno if it makes you being and time or being in time or being of time or being out of time…
but I do know you’re being something, and you’re being it now! :astonished:
