    Dude that is herd behavior. You should just hole up in an attic somewhere and spew vitriol to the sound of no one giving a shit.

    It's much more enlightened.

    I knew a guy named Elliot. He drove a DeLorean with a Chevy 4.3L V6 in it.

    That was him.
    He threw a flux capacitor in that shit, warped back to 1927, moved to England, and wrote Four Quartets.

    I don't think so. That doesn't seem his style. He was more into ridiculous cars than quartets.

    Man I read a Foucault book and all I really got from it was "history is written by the victors" with lots of esoteric verbiage and nearly indecipherable phrasing.

    I've known a good number of hipsters that I liked a lot, and some that I thought were poseurs or dickheads or douchebags. I guess it's pretty much that way with any "kind" of people, though it does kind of seem like hipsters are a little more up-front with whatever traits they have that might piss you off.

    Ultimately what bugs me about it is that it's a lifestyle choice - like WASPishness or a chav/hesher (great word btw) or anime geekiness or whatever - and like all even semi-popular lifestyles it comes with its little selection of tastes and fashions and publications and so on all designed to reinforce membership in the club, but so many people who are in it firmly deny that they're in it. At least the guy with the team colors daubed on his manboobs will cheerfully admit to being a sports nut.

    But despite all that I'm closer to the hipsters than the football fans. Such is my curse.

    Eh -- from what I've gathered, it's more than that, but that's definitely part of it.

    The big thing I got filtered down to me from Foucault was "context is everything," which seems accurate to me. I have his famous book, the History of Madness or whatever, and I intend to read it sometime before I die.

    If there's anything more incomprehensible than esoteric philosophy, it's estoteric philosophy in another language.

    Wikipedia wrote:
    Continental philosophy is a term that originated among English-speaking philosophers to describe various philosophical traditions strongly influenced by certain 19th and 20th century philosophers from mainland Europe. The term is typically used in contrast with analytic philosophy. The traditions comprising continental philosophy include German idealism, phenomenology, existentialism and its antecedents, hermeneutics, structuralism, post-structuralism, French feminism, and the critical theory of the Frankfurt School and some other branches of western Marxism

    wut?

    Analytic philosophy is real philosophy, it is concerned with things such as epistemology, ratioanl constructions of ethics, the philosophy of science and mind things like this. It is focused upon argument, rational support, consistency and logic. If I were to summarise it, I would say "How do we know the things we know?".

    Continental philosophy on the other hand (in its most modern incarnation especially of Post-Modernism, which is pretty much simply a rebranding of post-structuralism) is what most people think of when they hear the term "philosophy". Obscure, incomprehensible phrases, no clear argument - it's the stuff about Whether the Nothing nothings, and There is no truth. Continental philosophy is now nothing but word games (and wasn't much better than that when it first appeared).

    Analytic philosophy is real philosophy, continental philosophy is pesudo-philosophy, metaphysics, bullshit. Post-Modernism can die in a fire, and anyone who paved the way for it should be reviled, not admired.

    What bugged me about Foucault (why am I only writing about things that bother me? I'll try and correct this later) is that he's all "everything is fluid, meaning is relative, nothing can be said with certainty, and if you try to impose meaning then you are FASCIST. EVIL, EVIL FASCIST. And FASCISM is BAD, and that is NOT RELATIVE."

    And I'm like o_O
