I meant there's no unfriend button in real life.

Too bad you can’t unfriend people in real life. :broken:

Great idea! Hey, @"S", how do you fancy coming to New York City and help me deal with my obnoxious friend? All expenses paid, of course.

I'll start. I have a problem: I need to get rid of a crazy "friend". I met this person who I thought was very nice, and indeed he has a nice side. Whe...

Every story so far involved the protagonist turning out to be a troll. Interesting.. Love the troll idea, but it's starting to get old. Can someone pl...

There once was a kid who would always overthink things. In fact he was nicknamed 'Overthinker" by his peers. Overthinker loved to think about things s...

New story!

One upon a time, there was a clear pond that was undisturbed by humans. There was sign next to it saying that anyone who disturbs this pond will not g...

Obesity is only a problem because there's too much food around today. In hunter gatherer society, in which we evolved, food was scarce, and you had to...

The Passover holiday is coming up and I don't know what to do. The Jewish holidays kill me because I end up doing nothing. I live in a very religious ...

I'm not one to mention names. It's not directed at anyone specifically because I don't want a confrontation. I'm not angry at anyone, just annoyed wit...

What's grinding your gears? Sometimes when I try to have a serious discussion it gets spoiled by people who think everything I write is a joke. Even i...

I would love to give all my money to a complete stranger! I mean, it's not like I need money. There's always the homeless shelter.

I understand your need for money, especially when someone you know uses it all. . https://youtu.be/Yf_Lwe6p-Cg :rofl:

I'll start. The Philosophy Forum is an excellent place to express your philosophical ideas and engage with people who are interested in philosophy. Th...

I could get angry that you cursed at me. I could say fuck you back. I could say that I don't like sushi. But I won't. I'm an person with integrity and...

Just let me know when you fall asleep. Oh, wait. :chin:

Done, 10 mg. Let's see if it works this time.

I need to be bored. I am bored, therefore I sleep. I believe Descartes used similar logic.

Zizek vs Peterson April 19th. https://youtu.be/LdtwgbHBTLs

Of the examples you've provided, I can't see myself getting behind any of them. Maybe if you give me enough time I can think of a thesis statement wor...

You can't make people happy. Why? It is unhappiness that motivates philosophers.See philosophical pessimism (Schopenhauer). You must Know Thyself befo...

We can have our cake and eat it too! It can be partly exploratory, and partly a thesis. I mean we can make conclusions on what we know about happiness...

Now that we have ideas on what happiness is we can start brainstorming on how to make others happy: Sell them a product; Help someone in need; Complem...

We can start the OP with writing an introduction on happiness where you argue that happiness is not one thing, but rather a multiplicity of things tha...

I give up on women. :cry:

Why must something have a reference for it to be understandable? All that requires for something to be understandable is for it to have meaning. No it...

I don't think that's correct.

Can you answer this question? "Planet Earth is blue" refers to what? A: Earth. B: Planet Earth being blue. C: Other.

If I go outside, or look out the window, I will see rain. But we already get the "at this time" from "is", which makes it redundant. So "time" would b...

And what does 'is raining' mean? Can you name a context that it is so obvious? Funny thing is the reference is still missing even when you add those w...

The "is" already means "now", not the "it". That would make it redundant. What else could "it" refer to?

You said: Why not? I already gave an example of and understandable sentence where no reference is completed. "it's raining". What does the "it" refer ...

'It's raining' has no reference, but it's perfectly understandable.

I think you are correct here.

There's no reference for the subject "it" in the sentence. I don't think 'What's happening at this time' is a subject that you can refer to because a ...

I don't like to read old threads. It's kind of like old news.

I don't think @"S" likes your question: What is happiness? He even created a whole discussion about his dislike of such questions. https://thephilosop...

My apologize, once again. A female here on this forum is like finding a needle in a haystack. Dear lady, please accept these :flower: Good night.

Don't get any ideas. I only flirt with females. :broken:

I never intended to preach anything to you. I only gave suggestions. Look, I'm sorry about calling you lazy. I shouldn't have. It looks like now you'r...

Who's said I've given up? I never give up. :cool: Yeah, except that they can't do it, too busy, or are uninterested. Apparently not everyone who liste...

:lol: Indeed, perhaps this discussion can be re-titled as 'The Laziness Thread'. Have an idea, but too lazy to write it out, and start a new discussio...

For what's it's worth, here's a philosophical encyclopedia entry on happiness.

Point taken. Can we go back to the heart of the discussion now? Maybe you can be a little less lazy and do research? No pressure. Perhaps a good start...
