Songs that own your soul

[Maqus]

Don't fucking go ticklish but give reasons, I'm curious. You know my viewpoint now, hehe, I'd like to hear your argument and then I'll give mine if it's asked for.

Not now though, gotta go.

I know it's overwhelming arrogance on my part, today is an arrogant day.

I have to do a synoptic paper on the differences and similarities between the moral philosophy of Plato and Aristotle so..keep going I might learn something.

Song that puts me in an amazing mood: Freebird - Lynard Skynard

 

[Bambi]

well old aristotle was a bugger for the bottle, does that help??

 

[Bambi]

though plato, they say, could stick it away..Half a crate of whiskey every day

so theres a similarity

 

[bleed_black_orchid]

yeah I suppose I could impress my teacher with my knowledge of their drinking habits.. keep it coming Ill start taking notes.

 

[Bambi]

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar who could drink you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume Schopenhauer and Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine who was just as sloshed as Schlegel.
There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya 'bout raising the wrist.
Socrates himself was permanently pissed.

John Stewart Mill, of his own free will, after half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away. Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle. Hobbes was fond of his dram.
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart. I drink, therefore I am.
Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed.
A lovely little thinker, but a bugger when he's pissed.

 

[Maqus]

that's impressive

John Stewart Mill, my favourite, ehh, he seems to be a sissy.

 

[bleed_black_orchid]

I quite like Kant myself " No Virtue without Struggle"

so then anyone got anything else to offer me on the old synoptic question..

 

[autumnsphere]

well, about plato's drinking habits, haha, THIS IS A SIRIOUS ISSIUE. Plato wrote in his last book "Laws" that wine is one of the most important things in the republic. So - the highest law in the Republic: the citizens should be drunk all the time, they should dance all the time and sing. But what should they sing?


The Laws of the Republic of course!
And I'm not kidding.

@bleed_black_orchid
this is a really fucked up subject about plato and aristotle, there are a lot of similarities, but it's not a pleasant thing to go through. Ah dunno, maybe because i don't like aristotle that much. they say that you can't find a sigle parallel between them, but it seems to me that there are more similarities than differences.

i like kant too. he's

 

[Brynjar]

Ulver - Kveldsang

 

[Skoms]

C'monn. You're warm with the helenic philosophers? They look now as a cartoon.

 

[solefald]

songs to die for:
anathema-closer
in flames-the jester race
dark tranquillity-static
dark tranquillity-on your time
woven hand-the good hand
sigur ros-hun jord

 

[bleed_black_orchid]

see all this dying for songs doesnt really make much fucking sense to me because you cant hear them if your dead so its pointless.

 

[Maqus]

You're approaching the question from the wrong angle, it's the agony of dying that counts.

 

[Brynjar]

you want to die an agonising death? you're one sick puppy, you know that?

 

[Maqus]
