First of all, fuck you for making me choose. I hate choosing subjective things about myself because they prevent the fluidity of my character. If it were objective like "Choose your singular favorite" We can talk.

WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

Except the existence of the self. Checkmate atheists.

>It means I like to have a different favorite color some days.

because the thing that is asked is static and already determined. If the knowledge is held by others and readily seen, it is objective. If it is solely determined by myself, it is subjective.

Why is /lit/ so obsessed with age? I never see half as many age related threads on any other board.

Age is the measure of time in which you have been able to read, and the years of formal education you've had. Valuable on /lit/ so that a 26 yr old post grad can snivel at a 19 yr old undergrad.
