I commend your fandom. Hell is (all) the other people on this board!
I thought
Nausea
was well-written. Also bits of
Being and Nothingness
and all of
Anti-Semite and Jew
.

His lousy writing style is a bit of a barrier, unfortunately.
Having said that, I am a fan of existentialism as I think that it promotes responsibility.

Well, he's never given me that amazing opportunity! Lol..what's stopping him from doing so? Did you see what he wrote to me yesterday? Yeah…he's really someone I'd wanna get to know better, or even seem like he's interested in becoming friends with me.
I have no idea what you're, you know..whatever you're trying to do right now. What exactly are we doing again?

He's a lovely man, once you get to know him. He just likes to laugh at you, every now and again.

You know, I get so tired of all the hate against me. You returned to filmboards walking dead board. I supported your return. I've even let go of wanting this board separated from General Discussion. Nimda did what he wanted to do. I'm giving you emotional support to make it possible for topics such as this one.
I honestly do not understand what sociopath's problem is right now.

You are clearly not a major intellectual, like Juan Kerr. What are you "implicating" by that remark?

I just think the discuss is more interesting to read. So, please. Discuss.
Please discuss.
Fixed.

Well, all other filmboards members have been through some sort of filmboards group therapy session. He may as well have a turn.

True. By the way, your thread on nimda's anger issues has generated some brilliant responses. Stoke the fire, baby!

I don't have a choice in the matter unless I completely stop watching tv. I'm not willing to do that. Why would I?

It's an awful system. I never use it.

Well it's giving me a lot of issues recently and I hate it, so I'm going to sabotage their efforts and quite possibly find a way to get their entire system reverted back to how it was.

I have nothing but respect for the Nelson Ratings System. It is because of that system that I was exposed to such gripping narratives as the Twilight series, Eat, Pray, Love, and Fifty Shades of Goy (a coming-of-age story about a Jewish intellectual who encounters anti-Semitism in the workplace).

Well, there's this new algorithm the Neilson Ratings System is using, and it makes recommendations based upon the consumer's interests. I think all companies do this in other ways, so I'm not even sure I wanna read that book you've suggested.

A lot of people these days would say that Simone de Beauvoir is far more interesting, but I'm not sure about that. The Second Sex is a really hard book to read, mainly because she sounds so different from today's feminists.

I've never read Sartre. I just think the discuss is more interesting to read. So, please. Keep it going.

Thanks, Donna. It's rare to find a real intellectual in these bleak suburbs.

Thank you all for your responses. It is a little depressing that Sartre seems to not be too relevant, at any rate on this board, but I believe his time will come (again). I agree with the poster who argued that Camus was self-contradictory (I think Sartre said Camus was a nightingale who thought he was an owl), but then so is Sartre. It's just that Sartre sees this more clearly. I like Sartre because he bracingly argues that we must commit ourselves to a life of freedom. In these ghastly postmodern times he is like a breath of fresh air!
No, I think that Sartre is still relevant. Please keep going.

No not really. Philosophy is dead and everyone just wanna party.
Thats it, I’m going to clown college

Sartre will always be relevant, lest we forget. We must always be vigilant against illigical leftwing thinking and the best way to ensure it never infects us is to explore and criticize it. It needs to be mocked and its proponents vilified.
Besides, there aren't enough people whose eyes stare out in opposing directions like Sartre's and so he should be remembered also for his hilarious face.

Sartre is harder to read than Camus who wrote stories instead of direct philosophy.
