Worldly matters.

Who's the coolest philosopher ever? This is a difficult question. Philosophy is an intrinsically cool pastime: intellectual, detached, avant-garde, metaphysical. It also has its spiritual homes in both the East and continental Europe. These places radiate coolness. For the East, take Gwen Stefani's Harajuku girls, manga cartoons and that

currently reading The Outsider and so far it's very good.

I'm not too well read on much philosophy that doesn't relate to art history and as a result those I'm most interested in tend to be heavily influenced by psychoanalysis like Lacan and Kristeva. I've got a fair bit of passing knowledge though so I can fool casual observers!

Yeah, I see what you mean! Never noticed that.

Sure Camus was cool but Kierkegaard is All-Time Sexiest Philo Ever
