Ah. Well, I like to think I'm interested in film, but certainly there are a great many films I haven't seen which, by all means, could usurp these. Do you have any particular favorites or recommendations?

>>8193852
Very nice! A Love Supreme definitely has a sort of spirituality (?) which I've never heard elsewhere. Where did you see Hertzfeldt speak?

>>8193858
Aside from the gorgeous prose (I should clarify; I have the Katherine Woods translation) I love the simple declarations on life and living. Rarely have I read a book which so accurately suggests how to go about one's life.

Hmm your own post seems to contradict itself.
Let me explain-- you said that hipsters are posturing idiots & that's clearly a generalization, which of course is fallible at best. Then, you said that you "can have incredibly eclectic and have erudite taste and still act like a regular non-douchebag guy about it." This implies that it IS possible to share the characteristics your average hipster has and still be a not be a posturer. I'm not trying to pick a fight or anything but I just had to clear that up since I'm friends with a couple of hipsters and they're not the way stereotypes portray them to be.

I'm not big on books. Read only like 5 books ever outside school curriculum.

Never read a complete work of philosophy. Myth of Sisyphus is closest. Stirner and Nietzsche are quite relatable.

I really should read Metamorphoses already, I feel like a pleb for not reading it. Then again, I haven't read Odyssey either. My backlog is so fucking big, and I also have backlogs from other things. Currently going through Ulysses, I've finished "Oxen of the Sun" today.

>>8195838

>implying objective morality is a thing

Schopenhauer doesn't argue in favour of it.

>implying I should care if the self exists or not

No point getting mad at us because your pea brain can't fathom these ideas.

>implying ego and self are the same

See above.

>implying I'm not the creative nothing

Stirner's quite compatible with Schopenhauer.

>implying monarchies are A okay

Arguably.

>implying Hegel isn't bad ass

Wrong on all counts. His prose is as terrible as Kant's, but with none of the substance.

>Schopenhauer wasn't a gigantic fucking hypocrite and never lived his philosophy.

"It is therefore just as little necessary for the saint to be a philosopher as for the philosopher to be a saint; just as it is not necessary for a perfectly beautiful person to be a great sculptor, or for a great sculptor to be himself a beautiful person. In general, it is a strange demand on a moralist that he should commend no other virtue than that which he himself possesses. To repeat abstractly, universally, and distinctly in concepts the whole inner nature of the world, and thus to deposit it as a reflected image in permanent concepts always ready for the faculty of reason, this and nothing else is philosophy."

what kind of weird, existential plane do you live in that you think any sort of input on an anonymous image board is an attempt to reach profundity? What if it's just nice to browse other people's interests? That's what real, social people do--they talk to others and learn about what they like.
