this sudden horrific train of thought brought to you by red bull and nostalgia

[meretricula]

someone who is not me should write the Συμποσιον AU where Pep is Socrates and Zlatan is Alcibiades and Pep meant well but he never cared about Zlatan as a person just as a vessel for his philosophy and Zlatan is super super bitter because fuck philosophy what about love and crashes Pep's buddies' party to tell him so and oh wait that all really happened. only with less facial hair.

ahahahaha the reason I was even thinking about this was that I'm in that paper-writing fugue state where you haven't slept in literally days and are just trying to write SOMETHING so that you can turn the stupid paper in and be done with it, which reminded me of my last paper in undergrad. I fell asleep in the middle of writing some kind of looney tunes argument about the Socrates' failure as a lover and woke up to discover I'd apparently written a sentence about Zlatan IN MY SLEEP.

CLEARLY THIS WAS A SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE.

Holy hannah, it's perfect, yet terrifying.

right??? I started to casually make the analogy and then I realized things lined up way too well.

On the one hand, it's amazing when that happens,but on the other hand, it just ends in a strangling.

not even going to lie, now trying to think of how to work Bojan's Plato exam (http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/apr/22/championsleague.barcelona1) into this somehow. speaking of things that end in inevitable tragedy...

One of those moments when I wonder to myself what they REALLY teach you when you do a degree in Classics... XD

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

well, in all fairness I think it was less what they were teaching me than what I was inclined to learn... XD

Oh my life I want this so bad. The premise is so perfect it was basically meant to be.

In the name of all that is holy, someone needs to write this.
