Of course, when I talk about doing philosophy in college, I mean the whole nine yards, until finishing grad school.

Yeah, but, there's really no "slow down" in college, haha. Unless, I just take a lighter load, so there's that at least I can count on. Anyway, I kind...

Hmm, good memory I figure. Although my method is cumbersome, it does lead to a deeper understanding of what is being presented in class. I just need t...

Oh, dear. You ate all the cookies? :worry:

Don't you agree that they should be rationed also? If one we're to gluttonously indulge in eating cookies and not leave any for later, then that's not...

Yes, those are almost inherently good too. :blush:

Ok, fine. If rationing meaning banning something that approaches the property of being inherently good, then I don't see how anyone could make any sen...

Well, I figure based on what you said, about everyone liking some cake or pancake, that they might posses the property of being inherently good. I don...

I noticed, if I recollect correctly, that even since the old PF, you've been against cakes and pancakes, of all!, being inherently good. Where does th...

What's to prove, just take a bite of some pancakes or a cheesecake!

Well I agree to disagree with you, Sir2u... I insist that cakes and particularly pancakes are inherently good.

But pancakes are inherently good and safer on the wasteline and teeth no?

Cake is inherently good. Thus it must be rationed. My logic is flawless. :halo:
