Hey user, 'Tricia said that you've recently started with the Greeks. What do you mean by "Plato"? user...

why does this kind of thread make me anxious?

>you'r reading philosophy, stacy?
>are you unable to think on your own?
>pathetic

>started with the greeks
You mean the literature the cristians, the original Daesh, didnt burn?

C-can I watch you and chad fuck? Please?

plato's such a beta, i bet he said this to alcibiades about socrates

I never read greeks

funny story

i slept with jacques derrida's granddaughter (who sorta looks like pic related) and she told me her fav philosophers were presocratics, particularly eleatic school. i thoguht of u guys and unintentionally burst out laughing

I just bursted out laughing too

we're going to need those pics user

sure thing
i fucked barron trump

i would but scared abt revealing myself

that being said, i got ghosted by her pretty fucking hard, still not rly over it

>i slept with jacques derrida's granddaughter

This is the first I've ever envied someone on Veeky Forums

don't be scared user, nobody is interested in your dick, post the pics, she's a necessary part of the hors texte

>ghosted

how derridean of her

kek

The Presocratics literally take one day to read, max. It barely even counts as "starting" it's like reading a page long introduction in a textbook.

still waiting for those pic here

What is this fucking Anime dialogue

It's funny. "Start wit the Greeks" is old school academia horse shit peddled by little Eurocentrist boys who disagree with horse shit academic consensus on pretty much every other front.

This isn't SJW nonsense. You gain nothing by starting with the Greeks versus starting with, say, other cultures. As long as you get around to the Greeks you'll be fine.

I'd say it's more important to start abstract. Study the anthropological roots of various ideological concepts, and then steadily go into specific cultural examples.

i also want pics, please. the anticipation is near orgasmic

...

>Eurocentrist
Yeah, because it's not that europeans and americans has inherited more from the greeks than the indians...

neo-parmenidism is actually a thing

At least tell us how you met

That's a cute city. Where was the photo taken?

aww c'mon man, she ditched u, u dont owe her anything. it's not like this thread is gonna get back to her anyway

Grozny

>woman who's interested in the humanities
She must be a Marxist. I'd toy with her brain, and if she were good looking, go over to her place and fuck her.

The model's called Jessica Clements and she's based in NY so probably there.

I know this irony, but seriously, so am I.

Thanks, user

>see picture
>"hrmm she seems nice"
>read comments from legions of flatterers and sycophants
>see that there is an entire album of pictures
>"welp, guess I hate women!"

can we kill instagram?

over Instagram. she is a model so I followed her, and she followed me back because my username on ig is the exact name of one of Derrida's contemporaries (not saying who). started talking, was obviously taken aback that she was his granddaughter (I didn't know until she told me why she followed me), and eventually after a few months of talking I flew out to Paris over a spring break (from US) and there it happened

the only picture I have is a selfie in the morning w her laying next to me, can't really see anything so it won't prove much anyway

She's just selling a product. Blame the men commenting on her pictures. It's a buyer's market.

Follow me on Instagram, assklepios. I'm the real god of medicine too

Post some pictures from her IG then, I'm curious what she looks like.

I don't understand how instagram is even a thing, the picture resolution on that site is something you'd see on the internet like a decade ago
So it's not for photographers, who is it for? Attention whores (aka bloggers, models and celebs)? Social media is disgusting

What's her IG name?

>people falling for this
Why are you lying on the internet

I would like to live in a pretty city with pretty girls :/

"imagine i lick ur pusy"

frenchculture.org/books/authors-on-tour/pierre-alferi
I'm not so sure. This is Jacque's son, Pierre Alferi - poet, essayist, French heartthrob. I mean, look at that bone structure, user, I can only IMAGINE what spawn he may foster from his loins.

>imagine yu show yur father dis....

Go to New York my friend

just read Hesiod and Homer lmao that's all u need nigga

Fuck me she's hot

>can we kill instagram?
Are you mad? Where else would we get to see the pictures of all these lovely women?

What the fuck is that pose?
"I got a perfect idea: take the most unnatural, uncomfortable position and then stare directly into the camera. Don't worry, your cock-eye won't distract anyone from the "AMAZING" view out of our Air Bnb balcony. No don't change out of your pajamas, you look hot babe :^)"

maybe without instagram you could find one in real life and they would talk to you in tangible real life instead of screwing Chad and having a million different 'yous' to get their emotional needs from on the internet.

There's nothing wrong with pictures, there is something corrupting in any sort of fame.

The Bronte sisters could probably see a review in a journal and be perfectly equanimous, that's fine. But to get a million "you're great!"s a minute after you post a photo, whenever you need validation? It's frightening to conceive what this does to someone's ego.

>Where else would we get to see the pictures of all these lovely women?

>mfw there are literally millions of nudes of sexually attractive models/centerfolds/pornstars yet you jerk yourself off to 6/10 amateurs you could meet on the street.
Jesus Christ you are embarrassing.

Dude lfmao if 2000 people are looking at the pictures no more than 100 even read any of the comments, and 3 of them actually write something who cares

I can get aroused by much less, sue me

Also that girl is at least a 7

>that girl is at least a 7
Depends on where you live

>But to get a million "you're great!"s a minute after you post a photo, whenever you need validation? It's frightening to conceive what this does to someone's ego.

They're probably quite fragile, they require the approval of others far more than, say, an autist on Veeky Forums. And what happens when they get older and their looks go? What will they do then?

>And what happens when they get older and their looks go? What will they do then?
Drink and fuck mexican poolboys

good post

You can already tell she's basically retarded when she says stuff like "pose somewhere that makes you feel like a masterpiece".

Then if you say "wake up, you're turning into a retard" they'll "BLAWK OUT ALL DA NEGATIVITY N HATURS" and listen to the flatterers and sycophants instead.

You have to be at a certain point in intellectual development, must have a firm grasp of your self, to handle excessive fame, pampering and attention without turning into a disaster.

Why are child actors so fucked up? That's what we're looking at right now, an entire generation of women who are like child actors.

You're reading too much into it, at least in this particular case. She's a model and probably some random guy from some crappy agency runs her account

A model is the most vain """career""" choice there is. How is that encouraging?

I ain't gonna judge people because they took the least effort demanding choice in their path, I do the same

Felix Guattari?

>implying it's hard to read the presocratics

/thread

They arent misunderstanding it, theyre mocking it

dropped the post because i didn't feel like getting into an exchange with a young incredulous user over something like this.

not him, but there's an archive, and your post seemed like a teenage girl who had just found wicca

if you're not interested in arguing it, drop the thread, don't post more bullshit.
>>misunderstanding the alchemical import of that symbology which holds true even to this day

alchemy is technically for metals btw :3

have you no shame?

>and your post seemed like a teenage girl who had just found wicca

you're reaching here. cool your jets, user.

>alchemy is technically for metals btw :3

really? just metals, then? ah.

>you're reaching here. cool your jets, user.
it does sound like a teenager who just discovered wicca. it's not reaching, it's exactly what it sounds like to me. you'd better be a teenage chick into wicca or else you're also emotionally stunted in a mental age dominated by fantasy. it would explain why you think you get to override other people's interpretations of your totally cool internet persona. kek

wow that was a whole lot of condensed misery and frustration in one post. do you always do this?

Post a pic of the deleted post about magic

>People who judge me must be sad
You know kek indicates laughter, right? People don't have to be sad that you're emotionally retarded. They'll keep on keeping on without you.

i'm the guy who wrote it. it was literally this single line:
>misunderstanding the alchemical import of that symbology which holds true even to this day
that's it.

and he's spazzing out on some FBI clarice starling attempt at profiling because he's had a bad day and wants to ragevent it out.

Looks like we got ourselves a READER

Hahahahaha

Wtf

see
you are projecting so hard right now it's insane. do you not hear how blatantly miserable you sound when you do this?

>so many newbs can't Veeky Forums
the post number's even quoted ffs
warosu.org/lit/thread/S9613205#p9615320

you're on a literature board and you can't see how that line sounds like a teenage girl who just found wicca? it's not something that's going to get characterised as an adult and non-fantastical and not pretentious or immature in any text, why would it be for you? are you special, different from all those teenage girls talking about alchemical symbols and different from madonna talking about kabbalah? it shows the same character to me, and if i were to place you in a book, it would be YA. delving into tone and character isn't exactly out of bounds for a literature board or Veeky Forums, which just makes you seem even more like a teenage girl for assuming the problem is other people if they don't believe your stories about crystals or fairies are just as good as everything they like.
>FBI clarice
kek, you even read the books of a teenage girl about to get spiritual. have you tried carrie?

a post ago you were trying to tell me how not-sad you were, remember?

lad it's gonna be okay. whatever it is.

>Anaximander
literally a single paragraph lmao

user, how did you take that as sad? maybe it's sad to be you, but I'm not you so that's not really a problem for me. I think it's funny you think you're grown up while holding beliefs about as deep as a teenage gothchick into wicca. there's nothing upsetting about that. most books with that set up are bathetic comedies. something like carrie might be more to your taste because you keep wanting other people to be sad when they're not, but I like this confederacy of dunces mixed with YA you got going on.

let's be real for a moment and get to things that interest you: on a scale of 1-10 how scared and/or horny do vampires make you?

Can you fags stop arguing? I'm trying to read and you're being really loud.

>user, how did you take that as sad?

stop getting angry for a moment and actually look at this exchange again. look at how much you've tried to spin out of a single innocuous line. look at how little i've engaged you ever after that. and then finally look at how defiantly you've continued this rage regardless of both of these points.

>maybe it's sad to be you

you're that guy who emotionally crashes and burns in a thread as he convinces himself all the while that he is totally killing it. please stop projecting this hard it is so transparent and regrettable to see.

you're bored and feeling less than great. i get it.

>Algeria was quiet
France didn't really improve him. Hanging out with Sartre's got to be more scarring noises than the unpleasantness outside metropolitan France.
it's not my fault you type like a teenage chick and then delete your post like a teenage chick to avoid having to deal with what you said being hilarious, and then accuse anyone who thinks it's hilarious of being angry or sad or projecting, like a teenage girl would too. you read like a teenage girl. you're not good at reading others, and you can't see how blessedly teenaged that statement is which you still want to minimise. you really would like carrie.
it sounds like a teenage scene girl. just like "everybody's so phony" sounds like a teenage fedora. get over it. you're not saving the wiccan teenagers from being laugh out loud funny to everyone else, not even if you light some special sage holy shit i think i just popped a rib laughing at the genuine possibility you might do this over your girly little shrine rn
i think i have to watch that episode where they turn the goth girl emo in south park again.

haha. okay. you're very clearly young -- the south park line, the constant age card playing and fixation on "teenagers". it's all there.

next time dial the emotion back when you want to ragevent at user for a distraction from your problems. you don't want to end up sounding even more unhinged than the other guy, do you? bit of a tell.

>user is laughing at my alchemy because user hurts inside
kek, you're seriously made for YA. you'll get to an age when teenagers talking sincerely about alchemy in a joke thread taking finding out it's a joke thread this hard makes you laugh too. well, unless you're older than a teenager, in which case you're likely stunted like that forever, which is darling too. that's where we get middle aged women who try to cure their cats being run over with imitation crystals, and what would life be without them?

user, look! a dog!

but the dog seems to have a human hand! what?? dogs don't have human hands!

what is going on here?!

Ay Ive never slept with anyone either

that's nice dear, but it's regressing below the age of a teenager, and for someone who deleted a post because they didn't want to talk about it, you have a lot of posts too old to delete now with words like "projecting" and trying to accuse user of being an armchair psychologist. you sound like you're two months post-justin beiber posters on your wall. i hope your parents notice you became a witch kekekekeke
oh shit, i hope they don't just think you're *just* a witch, because patriarchy has controlled the alchemy game for so long they might believe girls can't be alchemists too. that would be sad

another hot new post from a heaps chill dude that is definitely not mad or sad right now.

>if I keep responding, i'll look like i'm not trolled
precious. a teenage probably would have found something to fuck or told me to fuck off by now, so i assume you're past 20 and i should just tell you to enjoy the cats and your exciting endeavours into cleaner veganer kitty litter. not defending that alchemy post you deleted when it was funny for twenty posts really worked out as a plan for you today, so i'm sure the rest of life will go just as swell for you.

sorry comedy makes you feel like people are mad at you, but laughing at you is much easier than getting mad at someone who probably likes wicca and stephen king. i wouldn't worry about people getting mad at you over that, darling, it really is a more funny thing to most people, but i'm going to have to love you and leave you since i don't know if the thread and your teenage awkwardness are going to be here when i get back.
