Greatest philosophy ever.

"In depriving myself of the acorns... what have we learned? Nothing! Not one of us has learned!

"Which isn't my point, but very well could have been."

- Ashley Raymond, Olympia, 1989

I've decided I love preeventualism. You should, too.

"A student asked me, 'Mr. Raymond, is preeventualism complete? Have you finished it? What if the current incarnation of preeventualism is proven to be incorrect?'

"The other students shook their heads. I believe the moderator of the discussion even said, 'Good question.'

"I stormed toward the student and yelled, 'That is the most ridiculous question I've ever heard! The fundamental precept of preeventualism is that it is correct! At any cost: it is correct! Preeventualism has abandoned all other concepts in favor of correctness! What more do you need?'

"And that student vomited."

- Ashley Raymond, Georgia Tech University, 1983

As a person trained in academic philosophy, I categorically disregard this so-called preeventualism.

That's because he's making fun of you.

He's not doing it in a way that exposes and magnifies any real problems ... so it isn't even humorous.
