A waste of time and trash and every concept created by it is ass
Source: Name one branch of philosophy that doesn’t have millions of exceptions and don’t make assumptions that contain fallacies and mass generalizations.
Person: People need suffering to give meaning to life and we need philosophy to understand the world.
Me: What if If we reprogrammed the human brain to be happy all the time with what if magic or I just easily poke a hole in any argument you make just like any other ism and theory.
the ultimate study of Truth.
The study of finding the ultimate truths of our existence, lives, and reasons for being here. Digging deeper into the meaning of things to find the core Truths.
Original dictionaries labeled this term as the search for God, who is the ultimate Truth.
"Where do we come from?"
"Why do we exist?"
"What is the meaning of life?"
Is philosophy the search for the existence of our Creator?

1. Philosophy in a good way: The process of seeking a better, happier lifestyle by giving deep thought into personal actions, habits and morals. Good philosophy is often understood to be to the benefit of society as well as to oneself. Religions often try to achieve this as well, at least on the surface.
2. Philosophy in a not-so-good way: The process of taking a set of personal beliefs and opinions and pressing them upon others without regard for the benefit of anyone other than oneself. Some would also say bad philosophy is the act of taking on a selfish lifestyle and making the excuse that this is the best way to live.
1. See Jesus, Buddha, etc. (Whether or not you're religious, they're both really nice guys.)
2. See Hitler, Stalin, Zedong, etc.
2a. A personal note to Ayn Rand: Rejecting altruism in philosophy is a little harsh. Try improving the life of someone who really does need it, then tell me that it's not going to make you feel any better.

Pathological recursiveness of first principles.
We're going to hold an intervention for Larry. He started heavily practicing Philosophy just last year and already he's lost his job, house, girlfriend, and car. He's dropped about 75 pounds and hasn't showered in months. Just last night he kept me up until 3 AM, arguing that the word "is" is superfluous semantic contrivance that utterly fails to address a given subject's truest ontological state.

The most amazing thing that someone could ever comprehend. When philosophy is used correctly, it's as if there's some outside force making you understand the most complex things.
Let's philosophize together.
I think some philosophy would make this situation more pleasant.
