If you've ever seriously considered the possibility that it might all be a dream before or after Inception, I assume you are a pretentious twit who isn't as clever or intelligent as they esteem.

[(Anonymous)]

Or you suffer from mental issues. Some of us actually have bouts of freak outs regarding that exact concept, thanks. :/

[resounding-echo.livejournal.com]

Forgive me for being callous; I had not considered that perspective.

I am truly hopeful you do not take offense, as my comment as a response to faux!philosophy.

[(Anonymous)]

Eh, it's cool. Just thought I'd put it out there. <3

[box-life.livejournal.com]

Calling people pretentious twits because they had a thought? That's just ridiculous. You're also insulting Zhuangzi, who I think was a pretty cool guy.

[resounding-echo.livejournal.com]

No, I'm responding to the OP, who is insulting those for having a *~deep thought~* after seeing a movie, rather than arriving at it "independently."

It's not entertaining the thought that I'm critiquing; it's feeling superior for it.

[penumbra.livejournal.com]

I do love you for putting 'independently' in quotes. I tend to roll my eyes at anyone who thinks they're smart for arriving at solipsism 'independently' because fiction is so saturated in that idea, explicit or implicit (Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz...), that I don't think anyone can claim they 'independently' thought it up even if it wasn't sparked by any specific piece of media.

[resounding-echo.livejournal.com]

Even if we thought that was once true, how can we now given the saturation of media and our growing up in global communications? And why do we try to hold on so dearly to the notion? Derivative doesn't have to be a bad word. Or, rather, we can still be products of histories and the societies in which we find ourselves without being reduced to derivative nonthinkers.

It's like, so you didn't think of that idea first or independently. That's fine. What are you going to do with the idea now? That's what interests me.

In other words: word. :)

[beandelphiki.livejournal.com]

And if it's a thought you had when you were still reading Dick and Jane...?

It's not THAT complex an idea, christ.

[box-life.livejournal.com]

Well, I guess that's okay then.

[leafing.livejournal.com]

Wow rude

Some of us are just ultra paranoid.

e: wait didn't see your responses above earlier. I agree that treating it as a novel philosophical idea is kinda silly, if that's what you were getting at.

[resounding-echo.livejournal.com]

I apologize if you took offense to my original comment. It was directed at the OP, and I was trying to match the derisive tone, but I realize now that it could easily be read a bit wider.

I think it's great to think philosophically, and we all have to start somewhere. It's the self-congratulatory attitude I cannot stand.

[leafing.livejournal.com]

I feel the same way about environmentalism.

And a lot of other things for that matter.

Yeah, I think I get it now.

[resounding-echo.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, that's another one. I think South Park handled it pretty well with the Smug/Hybrid episode, yeah?

[(Anonymous)]

Or, you know, just someone familiar with Berkeley, as millions of kids all over the world are because they went to school in the country they did. :)

[oflittlebrain.livejournal.com]

lol yeah i took a shitty pseudo-philosophy class in high school that was basically all "ZOMG YOU GUYS WHAT IF WE ARE ALL BRAINS IN JARS." we also watched the matrix. ಠ_ಠ

[resounding-echo.livejournal.com]

You gotta start somewhere, and I get that. It's just you can't just stop of The Matrix. It's really not that ~*deep and meaningful*~. I'm not saying it wasn't certainly thought-provoking for a lot of folks, just stop being so self-satisfied!

[sandvich.livejournal.com]

Guess that makes René Descartes the most pretentious twit of them all.

[x-butterfly19-x.livejournal.com]

Or a philosophy student.

[affablyevil.livejournal.com]

Yeah, because different states of consciousness and existence never appear in any religious texts or doctrines.
