I'm going to not respond to seth cause he kind of said everything I would've already said
I think it's gay when people associate the meaning of life as, "GOING OUT TO PARTIES AND DRINKING WITH FRIEESESDNS LIVING LIFE THE WAY ITS MEANT TO BE LIVED IN SOCIAL CIRCLES BECOMING THE TOP OF THE SOCIAL HIERARCHY YAYAYAYA"
I mean what do you do Fartin Mowler that involves living life so much?
Don't many authors and poets end up KILLING THEMSELVES? There's plenty of poets and authors who have shitty lives and they end up being so shitty because they "Live life too much". Look at Bukowski. Any author or poet who acts like they enjoy being miserable is a liar. That's partly how you can tell a GOOD writer from a BAD writer when the characters feelings are actually appropriate to a situation.
I mean seriously it's not like EVERY poet and author has THE MOST INTERESTING LIVES EVER or something ;/
I think that regardless of if you are having intellectual studies or going out drinking with friends and making funy jokes that everyone laughs at you're still "Alive" and "Living life". I would say that INTELLECTUALISM created your ability to drink and make funny jokes with friends (language right) and everything you know and love and feel comfortable about in life was created by intellectualism. It's kind of dumb to insult people who read books when it's usually them who end up improving life.
