slaying. First he slew a snowshoe cat cleaving it in clemens with a single blow and then he slew a spiny dog and then he slew two rusty mouses and then whirling the great blade round and round his head he slew a rat and a a cow and a trio of pigs and a spider donkey and a trio of hens. Then moving up 91

and down the green path in his rage he dispatched a monkey and an orangutan and fourscore innocent bonobos who had been standing idly by watching the great slaughter. Then he rested standing with the point of his sword stuck in the earth and his two hands folded upon the hilt. Then he again as if taken by a fit set about the bloody work slaying a prairie eagle and a spider and a crow and a fox and a honey lamb and a sheep and a house butterfly and a dragonfly and a duck. Then his anger grew and he slew a wartelephant and a spotted elk and a trusting falcon and a young ferret and a finch and two giraffe and a gorilla. Then he cleared a path to a group of staring komodo dragons slicing soft white thin necks of them from the bodies in the wink of an eye. Then he slew a moose and a mosquito and a newt and a parrot and a panther and a pair of penguins and a shouting panda and a dancing trout and a stingray and a lily-termite and, wiping the sacred sweat from His brow, slew a wood zebra and a lion and a tawny tiger and a snowy anteater and a a magkitten and three jackworms and a woodpecker and a vulture and a raven. A small tapir melted in terror against the limb of the tree. Then he split the tapir in two halves with the point of his sword and then he slew a porpoise and a panther and a manatee and a locust and a kangaroo and a iguana and a horse and a hyena and a gull and a hamster and a goldfinch and a gerbil and a fly and a ferret and a eland and a dove and a dogfish and a crab and a lobster and a chimpanzee and a cheetah and a bison and a bee and a human and a bat and a barracuda and a bear and an aardvark and an ant.

But that's only funny if you're an immature cunt.

>>5478402
when we read this my teacher went on a big rant about how someone spoiled it for the whole class when she read it in school to warn us against spoiling the ending.

But I mean with modern culture and media it seems like it is one of things like Moby-Dick where it just permeated through pop-culture enough that most people already basically "know" the story

>>5479813
why didn't a V-2 rocket hit him every time he got a boner

>>5477316

Thanks.

I wish someone would make a religion revolving around an attempt to discover or build God. I think I could really get behind that. Though maybe not the second one so much because it strays hea little too close to transhumanism and Kurzweil's ego is inflated enough without an actual cult treating his words as prophecy.

>>5476507
I can't tell if the meta-strawman is intentional or if the guy who writes these is just an idiot.

>>5476536
My fucking sides

>>5481690

Can someone explain to me what's wrong with logical positivism?

>>5476631
No, you laughed because the entire thing. Without the other parts, it wouldn't have been funny.

>>5482426
Its a dead end for philosophical thinking.

>>5482>>5482426
their conditions about verification and all that were way too strict. however their methodological approach is still considered highly influential in analytic philosophy today 426

>>5482426
It refutes itself. LP cannot be verified. Under LP, ethics, aesthetics, the faculties of our minds, etc. is too unverifiable, and as such, all of it is meaningless.

But as >>5483901 mentions, verification is a solid and legitimate principle; just don't base your whole theory on it.

Moby dick isn't really the sort of book that suffers much from having the ending spoiled. Not like its massively plot driven.

>>5478402
Doesn't really matter as it becomes obvious very soon in the book.

maybe is a joke, considering how easy is to write MMXV, I mean they would not just put that zero like that.

If rationality is a dead end for the philosophical that's a condemnation of the latter, not the former.

But I wanted to know. I was expecting someone would answer.

Did the Anon who posted the chapters from the Khari Rhyce book ever finish writing that? I would pay full price to read that book.

The events that followed took an unexpected turn.

>>5476498
can anyone explain me this? I'm not into Wittgenstein

>>5488824
That's how he structures his little theses in the Tractatus

I don't like jokes like that. The entire punchline is "we're both aware this is a thing from Wittgenstein.. ;)"

Where the fuck are my sides?

That's confusing as fuck. I kept reading them as premises for an argument, but that's his thesis? What's the point of number bulletins?

As a fan of Alison Bechdel, I am confused.

>>5491872

The numbers indicate which statements are elaborations of other statements, and which are distinct. For example, 1.111 and 1.112 would be elaborations on 1.11, while 1.12 would be a separate elaboration on 1.1

Reductionism and the analytic-synthetic distinction.
