10 Reasons Why You Should Go Date a Philosopher Right Away! -- (Calling all artists to illustrate! Will link to your account!)steemCreated with Sketch.

in #funny8 years ago (edited)

1.  Are you a sex addict? A philosopher not only thinks about sex, but he thinks about thinking about sex.  

     

2. A philosopher knows how to give you a platonic kiss.  

     

3. A philosopher can bring out your hidden love using the Socratic method of maieutics.  

      

4. If it’s true that the brain is our biggest sexual organ, then you can bet a philosopher is heavily endowed.  

     

5. Worried he won't be up for it? Relax: sex for a philosopher is never a dilemma, because for him dilemmas are always equally horny on both sides. 

     


6. A philosopher knows how to perform thought sexperiments.  


7. You a back-door person? Constant anal-izing is one of the philosopher’s strongest suits.  

     

8. If you’re into threesomes, date a Platonist philosopher: he can help you Form the Ideal triangle.  

     

9. Like to laugh? A philosopher is fluent in at least four kinds of humor (though mostly bile).  


10. Are you a Fifty Shades of Grey kinda gal? Date a Nietzschean philosopher: he never forgets the whip when he goes to women.  


Illustrations - keeping it in the family!


I had this brainstorm a couple nights back after I went to bed: Every time I write an article, I'll ask for artists to illustrate any of the ideas in it. They could share their drawing idea with me, and if I feel it's appropriate I'll tell them 'go for it', and then update the article with their art, and a link to their account. 

Cos I love comics, and art in general, and so I was like, 'Why use generic pictures from the internet, when we got so many talented steemians right here on steemit?' When we use stock images, no one benefits. If we use drawings by the people here on steemit: 1. we get the benefit of original art 2. the article becomes less boring and wordy 3. it looks more professional, and warmer compared to that cold stock-image feel 4. the artist draws attention to his own channel. 

And who knows: in the future, if an author becomes successful, they could even outright pay artists for their work!

So my hope is artists will embrace this idea, and that it will be endorsed by other non-artistically-endowed stemians as well. I shared this idea first with @jrej and he was excited about it. Hopefully I'll get the same reaction from other artists here.


* The illustration ideas below are my own, and you could draw those, but you could hit me up with any idea. I'll update the post with the drawings as they come in, and maybe resteem it afterwards, or the artists themselves could do it...anyway, this is quite new, so I'll be tweaking as I go!

1.  Are you a sex addict? A philosopher not only thinks about sex, but he thinks about thinking about sex.  

     Possible illustration: Thought bubble within a thought bubble? 

2. A philosopher knows how to give you a platonic kiss.  

     Girl passionately asks for a kiss. "Kiss me!" she says. The philosopher leans in and…plants a kiss on her forehead.

3. A philosopher can bring out your hidden love using the Socratic method of maieutics.

4. If it’s true that the brain is our biggest sexual organ, then you can bet a philosopher is heavily endowed.  

     Pleb: "Mine is 6 inches long." Philosopher: "Mine weighs 3 pounds."

5. Always up for it? Sex for a philosopher is never a dilemma, because for him dilemmas are always equally horny on both sides.  

     Two devil-imps, one sitting on each horn of a bull-philosopher (!), enjoining our undecided bovine thinker to go for it. Title: Either/Or (see Kierkegaard's book)

7. You a back-door person? Constant anal-izing is one of the philosopher’s strongest suits.  

     "My mind is sore from all this introspection."

8. If you’re into threesomes, date a Platonist philosopher: he can help you Form the Ideal triangle.

** If the current article is too dirty for your taste, cleaner material will follow! I just thought to post this first cos it got 10 very clear-cut doodle-targets for your awesome creativity.
