I love both those books. I wish I could embrace absurdism more in my day to day life but obviously I get caught up in "investing", "insurance", "retirement", "budgeting" etc. Even if you are not into Camus' philosophy, his writing works great on a narrative level (same for arguably Foucault, even though he did not write novels).
Speaking of absurdism, I was fortunate enough to see Geoffrey Rush in EXIT THE KING on Broadway a few years ago. That was Eugene Ionesco who also did RHINOCEROS. I read this book from South America a few years ago that is like THE STRANGER. THE TUNNEL by Ernesto Sabato. Super short too.
This was my background on my work laptop for a while. Colleagues embraced it because they know me.

Sorry, got stuck playing the new Zelda. Was going to do something about teleology, I think. But then Hyrule was in need of a saviour.
Derrida can be good fun, if you don't take him too seriously. Interesting to see which philosophers are hip in other studies. Do you guys not analytical philosophy up in your b's?

I read some Karl Popper and Wittgenstein. Then I read that book about their incident. There was an account of a dude's wife who used to flash her cooter at lectures.

It's true. I still haven't recovered from the wedgies. Maybe this is why I watch Pro-Wrestling?

Also you do nothing to combat my fantasy that you are a floppy-haired man-child who only plays Zelda and pedals. Some kinda mythical elfin critter.
(Please don't correct me; I need this.)

Dude, my hair is floppy as shit.
I'm also a philosopherâ„¢, and will meet your bashings with deductive logic and methodic arguments.

My wife has her master's in philosophy. I won't claim to know the first thing about most of it. If I'm saying something philosophical outside the context of literature it's likely that I'm just dumbing really good theories down (that she gave me).
