I have no idea what this means, but it sure does sound philosophical.

Someone please explain To this ignorant person What a haiku is

That explains it - Google Translate doesn't have Yiddish.

I don't know what that means. Neither does Google Translate.

Good, provocative, OP. Well written, if mostly by Auken and Wittgenstein.

Your, or anyone's, interpretation doesn't change anything. It's what it is, not what you, or anyone, say it is. If it needs redemption, it can't be do...

I agree, unsettling. It's art because they say it's intended as art, but it seems cheap to me. Like soft-core pornography. A trick. A joke. A clever i...

I like the Bronx, which doesn't mean your description is wrong.

I was certain you would be appeciative.

Keep in mind that @"Hanover" is a dick. You should know that by now. For what it's worth, I don't see anything wrong with using "scape" as a poetic wo...

Here are two definitions of "define" from the web: To state the precise meaning of a word. To describe the nature or basic qualities of; explain. Mayb...

I don't understand you're point. There are no two ways about it - a picture of a shoe is not a shoe. The idea of a shoe is not a shoe. "Shoe" is not a...

Making sure our definitions are clear is especially important on the forum for the reason you note. Unfortunately, it's possible to be overly pedantic...

You're mixing up definitions and distinctions. Definitions apply to words. Distinctions apply to things in general. Mistaking words for the world is a...

Yeah, but it won't fit in the title space.

But mine are funnier.

Love this. This was back when everything was shut down because of covid. That's why everyone is playing alone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltnSq4z...

It's a mandolin. Bill Monroe, known as the father of bluegrass music, was a mandolin player. Mandolin, bass, banjo, guitar, fiddle. Those are the inst...

A few more discussion ideas: Consciousness and quantum mechanics, what’s up with that? (Category - Pseudo-science and other Bullshit) United States - ...

It is my understanding that Mister Mxyzptlk, Cthulhu, and Donald Trump Jr. all speak Esperanto fluently.

I would have no objection to you listing those in the new thread.

I'm pretty discouraged by the low quality of the threads on the forum these days. I'm considering starting a new one. Here are some ideas: Possible Wo...

Evidence there is no time travel I find very convincing - Where is everybody? Why haven't we seen any people from the future? To me, that's more convi...

I didn't mean my comment as a complaint. It just always perplexes me.

I don't get it. I can see why people outside the US care about our foreign policy. We are like a rhinoceros trying to tap dance in an egg warehouse. B...

No, no. That's just a name you and @"Baden" use because you think it bothers me. I was being called "Clarky" long before you were born. I'm just looki...

Ehh... Maybe, but I'm leaning towards Hugh G. Rection right now. It's more formal, dignified. Including an initial always adds a little class. T. Texa...

New names I am considering for myself: J'onn J'onzz - Manhunter from Mars T - Following in the footsteps of the late lamented (by me at least) Sapient...

This whole question of how many chickens you have must be one of those modal logic/possible worlds things?

Was that in "Life in these United States" or "Laughter, the Best Medicine?"

Ahh... NJNTNB knowledge. My favorite kind.

We need more well-thought-out and clearly written original posts like this one. Other than that, I think your opinions related to the health and envir...

Hey!! I believe everything I write. That's the NJNTB theory of knowledge.

I remember reading that they found wheat in one of the Egyptian pyramids that was several thousand years old. When they planted it, it sprouted.

In line with a recent thread, if knowledge is justified true belief; which requires that knowledge be true, that you believe it is true, and that it b...

I love Helvetica. We've talked about that before. It's what I always use to make macaroni and cheese.

Looks ok, but what's with that little droop in the A crossbar? Maybe trying just a little too hard to be stylish, get people's attention. Does that re...

Careful. You two are creating a hostile philosophical workplace. Who is the forum's anti-discrimination officer?

Face facts. You, like everyone else here on the forum, were scarred for life long before we all met.

Wasn't that Superman's second cousin back on Krypton?

I think what intrigues me is that people put so much thought and effort into something that seems so small. But I guess that's how the world works - t...

I don't usually get all the excitement about type faces. As long as it's simple and easy to read. Nothing Gothic, script, or showy. I guess serif feel...

Went on Libby library app, borrowed book, looked interesting, put it on list of gifts for next Christmas. What a world we live in now. Thanks.

What's the name of the book?

This has always struck me as true. Most government regulation is for the benefit of business. Banks couldn't run without banking regulations, but don'...

I, on the other hand, am a sexologist, in the same sense that I am a philosopher.

Have you noticed; actually, I'm sure you haven't; that gay male porn is better - more convincing - than straight. It's probably because men don't have...

Then your best action would have been to ignore what I wrote, but you wanted to be all snooty and stuff. Just as your best response now will be to ign...
