I was a big fan of solipsism in my college years. Not sure if I was because I liked annoying people with it, or because I was really selfish and wanted the entire universe to exist to serve me.

Solipsism like you thought you were really alone in the universe, or solipsism like you just thought you were the most important thing in the universe?

Being a debate nerd in high school is really bad for you. I was super into Kant specifically. Such a loving windbag. I read like a dozen books about just his categorical imperative, something that is almost completely meaningless in concrete terms.

i never adopted any bad philosophies, even as a young teen. i was enamored with the military for a while, but it was only really about the technology and stuff.

Like there are no Kant quotes that you can put in a Doors song.

I used to try to use remote viewing a la "Suspect Zero" because I read a bunch of books on psychic projection. Supposedly the CIA in the 70s did this too, which makes me even more ashamed. Ah well, at least I never paid money to a lady in a gypsy costume so that's something.A ILL BREAKFAST posted:i was also "into debating" in high school and can specifically remember giving my friend poo poo for not shutting up about Kant with the joke "more like immanuel kant get laid" Man, could never get into debate. I was too aggressive and used personal attacks and apparently that's "not how you debate". I guess I never did learn e. for movie title.

Nckdictator posted:Irony. Irony is something that also pretty much post-dates my teenage years. Most of my beliefs as a teen were about things I like really being able to change/save the world. Irony really took off after the widespread adoption of the internet, because people had way more access to bad pop culture of the past to mock. Also, good pop culture became more available, and was therefore less valuable. I mean, when we had one store in the city that we could go to and get a Public Enemy cassette, we were still pretty proud of having that access. It is once you can do that easily that you then make a point of listening to Def Leppard.

Weird acid new-age poo poo inspired by electric kool-aid acid test when I was 15 where I got all Dennis leary/merry pranksterish and decided hallucinogens and magical thinking were going to open new insights on life and perception I dressed like a loving retard but at least the drugs were fun and seemed meaningful at the time. Otherwise I probably would've just started drinking and doing heroin or something while being a punk

He just pisses me off become he put decades of really deep, careful thought into an utterly vapid line of what is basically pure rhetoric. And I at some point was retarded enough to be interested.

I thought I was a -Progressive Conservative because I thought I believed in responsibility with birthcontrol, firearms, and finances but then I talked to actual PC's and quickly realized they were all loving lunatics and thank Christ I got better because for all the talk of leeches and welfare abusers, those people sure like to dictate where the government should spend their money (on them or on their bosses so they can make more money)
