Currently reading "At The Existentialist Cafe" Interesting, illuminating, and confusing all at the same time. But reminds me of some bad jokes .... ;)
Question: "How many existentialists does it take to change a light bulb?"
Camus: "None, why bother."
Sarte: "It doesn't need changing, it is what it is."
Heidegger: "My freedom to describe the change of the bulb brings it into Being."
Me: "Huh?"
----------
Sarte is sitting in a French Cafe, revising his draft of Being and Nothingness. He says to the waitress, "I'd like a cup of coffee, please, with no cream." The waitress replies, "I'm sorry, Monsieur, but we're out of cream. How about with no milk?"
--------------
An existentialist walks into a bar while the universe remains a palpable and penetrating darkness and cold pain is a shadow on everything.
-------------
Heidegger walks into a bar and asks for a drink (probably an Apricot Cocktail), but the bartender apologizes and says, we stopped serving drinks 15 minutes ago. Heidegger responds, "I hate not Being on Time."
