:welcoming:I am sitting in a pool at my own planned gathering, surrounded by a bunch of idiots who are having the most idiotic philosophical conversation I've ever heard. It's the kind of thing were they are degrading "intellectuals". I'm feeling a bit ostracized so I am throwing a pity party. These are adults and I feel like I'm in middle school. :pudency:

Ask them, if they were wearing a red sweater and stepped into a dark closet where they couldn't see, what color is the sweater? When I was in philosophy, we would go round and round on this because light gives things color. Keep them chasing their own tails.

I always argued, I'm still wearing a red sweater in a dark closet. hahahaa!

My mind just exploded. I've never thought of that...hmmm. Yeah, I'd agree with you. Now I'll never sleep pondering this riddle of the universe, lol. Like Blain the Train.

On the last day of class, of course we had a big test and in those days, you actually got a paper test back. Since it was the last one, our professor mailed our tests back to us and on mine she wrote a note telling me how she really enjoyed me in class.

I was very engaged in the philosophical debates. And animated. And I would talk myself out of my own stance, then turn around and talk myself back into it.

I think I might be painting a bad picture of myself throughout these threads tonight. :laugh:

Lol, nah...I think that's fascinating. Someone who can debate two arguments convincingly seems to have a greater empathy for people. When having debates, I couldn't be dispassionate or impartial. I envied those who could do that.
