Insult
From me to Jennifer Hudin:
I feel I haven’t insulted American philosophers enough. Perhaps we should do a joint insult.
Colin
Her reply:
Would love to insult American Philosophers. I was planning to do so at the memorial. And you are right. It is American philosophers who are the worst offenders.
Jennifer
I edited out other material.
Let me add that many of these philosophers are not Americans, though they work here (English, Australian, etc.). I don’t detect these failings abroad.
Is there a quality of insult that is befitting the philosopher, rather than use of standard 4 or 7 letter words?
Not that I know of, which is why I resorted to the meta-insult.
