Frog

Citing the content of this blog, I was accused at the weekend of being a petit Alain de Botton.

That is, a pop culture philosopher.

I object. Such a being would have used an “on” in that first sentence.

To be honest I had to ‘wiki’ Alain. Typical; I pretty much avoid all modern contributions on the basis that it takes decades to filter out the wheat from the intellectual chaff. And there is a lot old high quality wheat yet to work through so why bother with the latter?

One could spend a lot of time absorbing bullshit if one tried to avidly stay current with all the pop culture intellectuals. In any case if any major contribution does happen to pop up it usually segues down my way in one manner or another. I fear not missing out on yet another Lego piece in the mystery of life.
