So there's this thing I want to write, but at the moment I'm not feeling smart enough to, which is sad, 'cause it would be awesome.

Namely, Socrates vs. Bill O'Reilly.



I never said I was sane.

ETA: Also, finished the second part of my app for Columbia, and why the heck do they want my financial aid info two weeks or more before everyone else?

I kind of think Bill O'Reilly would be one of those guys condemning him to death for poisoning the minds of youth, but that's just me.

Because Columbia sucks. uh.

[adiva_calandia]

Well, yes! Socrates asks questions, and teaches others to do the same, and people asking questions make it hard for people to show "decisive leadership."

:D?

*sigh* Their application process is certainly a heckuva lot more irritating than anywhere I'm applying.

Yes, well. His method would also be difficult to fit into a half-hour program on FOX News. Talking points = more efficient.

That's because you're not applying to UChicago?

HEY.

[aberration]

NYU... well, we suck at sports chants, but something like that! :P

...Oh man, am I shiny-eyed right now.

And wondering if I could write the Socrates part, but knowing I couldn't right Bill O'Reilly and not willing to familiarize my self with him enough.

[adiva_calandia]

Wouldn't that be AWESOME? But the familiarization -- that is the problem, isn't it.

[batyatoon]

*jawdrop*

That. Would be MADE OF WIN.

(I ever tell you I once wrote a paper for introductory philosophy in the form of a self-insertion into Plato's Euthyphro? Discussing the nature of piety with Socrates. Was fun.)

I am so glad other people think this would work. *beams*

(. . . Dude. That's awesome.)
