This is quite possibly the most profound sentence that has ever been conceived by mankind.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it. Philosophy. I can’t stand it. 99.999% of the time, it’s bullshit. My opening sentence for example: Where’s the profoundness? Let’s take a look. By saying that this is the most profound sentence ever, it implies there is a deeper meaning. But there doesn’t seem to be one. Could it be that there I am claiming that there has never been anything profound said by mankind? Maybe, but that’s just looking at the top layer, the mocking tone.
If you look deeper, you realize that it requires a lot of thought to prove this point, thereby making one spend countless hours reading other profound sentences. By making you do this, our above sentence has made you more deeply contemplate everything, and is in itself profound…
There’s another layer to it too. What if, perhaps, the profundity of the statement is that you can’t prove that anything else is profound, because there mankind in and of itself is not possible of being profound? Woah. Hold on. Way deep man….
Or not. It’s all bullshit. I made this sentence up to prove the very fact that it is. I could have BS-ed an essay out of the sentence and no one could have proved me wrong. The question is, who gives a damn? Not me. You shouldn’t either. The amount one can bullshit you should not be a sign of his wisdom.
