    You are the one who came up with the idea for this thread, so you get first honors.

    So, should this thread be considered?

    OK, I guess that's true. Should this thread be considered? I don't know how to begin considering it; so perhaps the question is "can" rather than " should".

    (Don't let the Anals in: they'll start rabbiting on about self-reference).

    I've always wanted to wallow in awe, but whenever I thought I'd found something it slipped away....

    So are you saying that it is impossible to consider this thread to begin with?

    But is this not in fact considering it?

    I don't know ...

    Is it considering it or considering whether to consider it? I don't know either, and I love not knowing.,.

    The problem is, this thread is stuck in the lounge, and lounging is not conducive to monumentality.

    Isn't that the ultimate purpose of philosophy, to show ourselves that we know nothing, and that we know nothing in regard to knowing nothing. It is a good thing to be a philosopher and love not knowing.

    Because I don't know if I know, or because I know I don't know, or because I think the very idea of an evil rabbit is super cool, or because the very idea of the very idea of an evil rabbit being super cool is satisfying to Wallows, or even simply to wallow in? And so on, ad infinitum...?

    They can add whatever superfluities or supereffluences they like as long as it is in the form of nicely manageable pellets. Also, as long as they don't start overpopulating this thread with evil self-referential rabbit (or mouse) jokes.

    On a different tangent; do you think Mighty Mouse was a greater philosopher than Bugs Bunny? And please don't mention that dopey sap Mickey Mouse (oh shit I just mentioned him!) (I used to have the hots for Minnie when I was a kid, but I'm not a bot or bestial or anything just a sad "phuq" who can't wallow successfully).
