simple questions no answers: that's philosophy
So five years ago you posted a wanky comment about how superior you feel to everyone aroud you. Then you came back today to see if anyone gave a fuck, and upon realising nobody had, you dropped a new but equally wanky comment that's really about how much better you are than other people. Should we wait five years for you to confirm whether it was intentional irony that the subject matter was about development and progress?

If you are midway through a 3 post prank that takes 10 years to play out, then I doff my cap.

Is there such a thing as a simple philosophical question?
