Wait, hold on here. Correct me if I'm wrong, but in SB&HJ canon, isn't Sweet Bro the one who warns Hella Jeff about stairs? So, you replaced Sweet Bro with Hella Bakunin and Hell Jeff with Sweet Marx? This doesn't make any sense at all. Go fuck yourself.

It's a terrible feel. The more of his lit, poetry, and columns that I read, the more it hurts that he died almost 20 years ago.

I find it about as funny as an xkcd comic not funny at all.

It seems like it's the same joke over and over again: your choice doesn't matter. The problem is that you can't escalate the punchline by having your pointless choice be more pointless. So to me it just seems redundant.

no, friend, you have SB confused for HJ and vice versa. that's an understandable mistake though, since neither character is ever specifically named in the comic or elsewhere. i think the author intended readers to be confused as to who is sweet and who is hella so disputes like this would exist.
i've always assumed the red guy is sweet bro and the blue guy is hella jeff but i could be wrong too.

This elitist belief of 'philosophers' that only philosophers are the ones saying sensible things in philosophical matters is really retarded, especially considering how they're not providing ANY answers, whereas science is.

It's strange how many people I've met in involved in the sciences that aren't even familiar with the philosophy of science. Popper should be required reading material so we don't get scientists doing stupid shit like proclaiming the death of philosophy.

To which you replied, "yes, of course. Double order, actually." You ordered it to-go, but, never being one to place even more undue strain on your feet, immediately graced the nearest available seat with your jaw-droppingly bulbous ham hocks. The philosopher hated you so pretended like a new batch of fries needed to be cooked, and told you so.

When he finally had your order sacked (four bulging bags, a meal fit for a family of five--yet prepared for your mouth alone) the philosopher said, "sorry about your weight."

"Oh, that's all right," you said, cheerily snatching up your quarry.

The philosopher smirked as he watched you leave, your back-side resembling a wilting package of hot dogs--none of the dogs being remotely in proportion to the others.

The death of philosophy in the sciences doesn't mean what STEM-retards think it memes, it merely means the death of the armchair philosophy method (not the love of knowledge itself) in the natural sciences. That's a perfectly fair stance in their epistemology.
