    Do you believe that humor has a limit?

    I'm a guy with an extremely screwed up sense of humor, but even so I can't tell if humor has a limit or not, because humor is very subjective from person to person. I could make a joke like "Do you know the no-me either joke? No. Me neither!" and offend someone, the same way I could make a joke...

  9. I'm getting tired of modern meme culture

    To be honest I'm kind of sick of meme culture at this point. It's something I've been feeling for over a year now and I've been trying to figure out why. I think the following observations may explain why I've been feeling this way. It may simply be a sign of cultural change or something worse...

    Idk i studied history before i figured i like philosophy so it was already ingraines in my to read primary texts. Secondary texts are usually sufficent for general understandings but some would go as far as to say you dont even truly understand a philosopher unless you read them in their native language

    Do you really need to read primary texts to be well versed in philosophy or can you just rely on second hand information

    I mean... you can, but it's like trying to build a house on top of shoddy foundations. It might be fine, or the cracks in your initial understanding may lead to enormous wastes of time and confusion.

    Primary texts are superior generally for more than just a quick look over the topic to see if you're interested, even more so if its a language you dont natively speak (such as Latin)

    I mean the problem is that I don't want to waste my time with a bad philosopher

    Jokes aside, once you get into the nitty gritty of a subject you're deeply interested in, and whose grandest and most fundamental questions you want to attempt to understand or even answer, you learn very quickly to never trust other people's misunderstandings, and to instead go directly to the purest sources of information. Simple application of knowledge is usually resistant to minor confusions or imperfect analysis, but a grand and sweeping overview of a discipline needs you to be absolutely clear-eyed about everything.

    If you want to study philosophy, you are going to be wasting your time with a lot of bad philosophy, and there is no way to avoid that.
