Flippant Friday: Ask sabotabby

[sabotabby]

Really. Ask me anything*. I'll answer it, in a manner of speaking.

Does anyone know, speaking of flippancy, where I can find the equivalent of this for the year ahead? I heard the new colours suck and I'm just dying to know! (Actually, it's for work, but I am curious and the Color Association makes you pay for it.)

* But if it broaches certain topics, I'll lock the post.

Yes.

People on my friends page don't camwhore nearly enough.

Yes, this sounds like a great idea. Model the undies and wear a wet t-shirt.

My friends just tell me about their underwear and wet t-shirts, they never post the pics. Phooey! >:(

Maybe you should entice them to do so by starting the trend...

[earthlingmike.livejournal.com]

Yeah no kidding, same for my friends!

Would you consider posting to 2hot4philosophy,?

You could, if you felt so inclined, be photographed reading your favourite political philosophers while wearing hello kitty underwear.

[sabotabby]

introduce yourself and convince us how smart you are, i.e. your current field of philosophical research, the precise of your doctoral dissertation, which degrees you're holding, etc. (but don't just list a bunch of dead philosophers' names because that doesn't prove anything)

Heh. I have an undergrad in graphic design. From York, no less. I would only embarrass myself.

We really aren't that fussy.

That's an interesting idea for a community, but the results are nothing but awful.

Here's why: philosophy undergrads. The most annoying people to have a conversation around with.

"How do we know that plants aren't intelligent?"

You don't have to tell me, I teach the little bastards. (Current bad mood induced by first year logic students failing their test).

But the community is mostly fun, and we let everyone join if they post photos of themselves with books and can say something about a philosopher they like. Thus we subvert the whole concept of ratings communities, which brings me a lot of pleasure. We also have a you must be over 18 to join clause, even if we don't enforce it very strictly, which keeps some of the more inane would be philosophers out.
