Porch philosophy

Philosophical ideas or explanations that you make off the fly without any research (usually while impaired), as in when your drinking on the porch.

PERSON 1: I think having a dog makes you a better person because it makes you more pure, like a dog."
PERSON 2: "that's just porch philosophy!"

Front-Porch Philosophy

Front Porch Philosophy is the practice of inviting friends over to one's house for the explicit activity of drinking a few beers and discussing philosophical and spiritual topics. Coined by the Colorado journalist Stephanie DeCamp, the phrase can also be used to define a series of conversations held by a recurring host.

This week I decided to invite a former street-preacher, an atheist nanny and an acupuncturist over to my balcony for some Front-Porch Philosophy. I think the goal will be to discuss anything but religion.
