>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 10 01:25:10 2010 No.537441 Nihilist but existentialist? In other words, you're searching for existentialist philosophers? Camus? Nietzsche? Sartre?

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 10 01:25:10 2010 No.537442 >>537433 If you say Kierkegaard isn't nihilist, then you're not following him on the dismal results of hermeneutics. His pessimism about the nature of reading is almost Deluzian.

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 10 01:26:10 2010 No.537444 op here. what would be good to start with Kierkegaard, and keep in mind that im trying right now to get into philosophers. i tried Nietzsche and he was alright, just painstaking to read

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 10 01:28:10 2010 No.537454 camus seems pretty cool, would anyone recommend The Rebel?

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 10 01:28:10 2010 No.537453 >>537444 Kierkegaard isn't easy. He's a combination of hermeneutics (how to read documents) and theology. He also writes wickedly.

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 10 01:30:10 2010 No.537458 >>537444 If Nietzsche was hard the Kierkegaard will fuck you in the ass with a pineapple.

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 10 01:32:10 2010 No.537467 Kierkegaard is pretty much the definition of OP's request. Just try The Sickness Unto Death. It's short.
