If the Big Bang Theory is correct that means we all used to be glued together in a single dot. That's kinda kinky.

>riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs. Sir Tristram, violer d'amores, fr'over the short sea, had passen-core rearrived from North Armorica on this side the scraggy isthmus of Europe Minor to wielderfight his penisolate war: nor had topsawyer's rocks by the stream Oconee exaggerated themselse to Laurens County's gorgios while they went doublin their mumper all the time: nor avoice from afire bellowsed mishe mishe to tauftauf thuartpeatrick: not yet, though venissoon after, had kidscad buttended a bland old isaac: not yet, though all's fair in vanessy, were sosie sesthers wroth with twone nathandjoe.

You can continue to pretend this schizo rant is "intellectual" and really smart...
>Well, you know or don't you kennet or haven't I told you every telling has a taling and that's the he and the she of it. Look, look, the dusk is growing! My branches lofty are taking root. And my cold cher's gone ashley. Fieluhr? Filou! What age is at? It saon is late. 'Tis endless now senne eye or erewone last saw Waterhouse's clogh. They took it asunder, I hurd thum sigh. When will they reassemble it? O, my back, my back, my bach! I'd want to go to Aches-les-Pains. Pingpong! There's the Belle for Sexaloitez! And Concepta de Send-us-pray! Pang! Wring out the clothes! Wring in the dew! Godavari, vert the showers! And grant thaya grace! Aman. Will we spread them here now? Ay, we will.
but not for long. Joyce is terrible. Modernist literature is terrible. Literature in general is childish and irrelevant. It will be dead in less than 20 years, and all you faggots are retarded for taking this trash seriously.

The Greek script isn't solely used for writing Greek. It's also used for notational reasons in mathematics and sciences and I don't talk about the advanced stuff.

A prepared speech that he used before, verbatim, that people have heard before. Pseuds and posers do that. What killed my interest in e-celebs is hearing them speak in person; they have their rehearsed speeches they give, word for word. It doesn't matter of it's Zizek or some pop-scientist, they are like the quacks who used to go town to town selling medicines, and they'd have their same rehearsed speech they'd say over and over again. This is the same thing with their "philosophy". Same exact things. Same bullshit. Same intonations. Same pauses. Just memorize and wheel you around from point A to point B. It might impress brainlets and get you a small following but if an intelligent person heres you saying the same shit over and over again, they know you're full of crap and are just a worthless ventriloquist without anything novel or insightful to offer. A stageman, not a thinker.

>But surely you, you will understand them by discussing them with your phi-bros. Not like your professor and friends have no clue either. I mean if you're not paying for it you can't understand it. It's not like that philo-degree wouldn't get me a top job.
