WELL: It finally happened today. After four years of philosophy, I finally hit the point where I just found the entire premise of what was being discussed completely pointless. I raised one of those foundational objections that used to annoy me so much (why are we talking about forming beliefs from scratch when no one ever actually does it that way, nor could they even if they tried?), and then spent the rest of class doing matrix algebra in my notebook.
Somewhere, David Hucul is laughing evilly.
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
