How many Existentialists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
« on: April 04, 2011, 10:02:30 AM »
Two. One to screw in the light bulb and one to observe how the light bulb symbolizes a single incandescent beacon of a subjective reality in a netherstorm of endless absurdity stretching out towards a maudlin cosmos of nothingness.

I know that you're referring to tick's ignorant failure of a troll attempt, but there is actually an entire school of Philosophy that claims that Philosophy doesn't exist and that what we call Philosophy is actually a failure.

Yea it's somewhat related to Phenomenology and Heidegger, but there are other guys that say that Philosophy is a failure and that it's not actually anything meaningful (even though they are Philosophers themselves)

On a related note, I've all but decided on Philosophy over Theology at Uni. Go Philosophy!

Although it's six times harder to get in for, so I'll probably hate myself when I don't get into Cambridge.

That's not surprising.

Especially when you consider that pretty much that we think or say or do or believe in is just something we've created to make artificial sense of the vast, unimportant nothingness of the universe.

Eh, it sounds nice. But philosophy seems to have gotten more than a few ideas off the ground.
