Pretend you're Aristotle

The pencil sharpener is a symbol of humanity's lust for violence. It turns the pencil, enlightened instrument of learning into a weapon of destruction which can blind or maim any man which stands in one's path to total subjugation. Yet, in our hubris, the great Sharpener punishes us by bluntly snapping off the sharpened end, converting a tool of wanton killing into nothing more than a crude twig, creating a symbolic end to humanity's reign of terror over the land.

pencils are barely durable enough to break skin and will break before doing serious damage regardless of whether they're sharpened or not
 
for most animals, showing teeth indicates aggression. for humans, however, it indicates happiness. this is because, when we smile, we are reflexively preparing to defend ourselves from anything that could take away whatever is making us happy—usually other humans. it is a grim reflection of the inherent human tendency towards violence and aggression. this is further supported by the fact that the act of faking a smile for long enough will eventually make one happy on its own—the mind is fooled into believing the body is committing acts of great violence and rewards the body and soul with emotional pleasure
 
The concept of time is a psychological and social construct founded by humanity in an effort to explain one of the universe’s greatest foundational principles. When time and space began to expand as a result of the creation of all things, the foundation was set for an infinite amount of alternate timelines, each of which contains its own version of ourselves and everyone we know. As I continue my studies, I hope that in at least one timeline I can find who the heck asked.

this thread is a shame. went for the queen n missed errytime, even dragged other philosophers' names into it. you all would do better to contemplate aristotle outside these forums and return w better content for it.
