To be or not to be
Être ou ne pas être : ainsi la question
Stop being, frogposter.
Tuba or not tuba, that is the question
>>25044638To be
You can't not be
We will all cease to exist. Different means for the same end.
>>25044644Non c’est "être ou ne pas être: tel est la question."But don’t stress it, French is a garbage language
>>25044684Seems solipsistic. Who's to say that time ceases to exist upon death? Also, premortal non-existence and death aren't the same. Both could be infinite, just in opposite directions.
>>25044663i choose tuba, let's dance!
>>25044686Cease to existSaying my goodbyesDrive my carInto the Oh-sha-un
>>25044714>Both could be infinite, just in opposite directions.Well the former literally *can't* be infinite since you came into being to begin with.
>>25044686Actually, our existence is eternal, it just takes up different forms.
>>25044798Except, by the laws of mathematics, it can. If we're picturing time as a line, death could be infinite in one direction like pic related and premortality, infinite in the opposite direction.
>>25044802>eternalDefine eternity.
>>25044700No it's "être ou ne pas être: telle est la question"Maybe learn the language before criticizing it Ahmed. You couldn't have made a more basic mistake. It'd be enough to embarrass my 6 year old cousin.
>>25044815>nooo muh grammatical gendersshut up françois
>>25044812Whatever dude.
>>25044638You do have this speech memorized, right, /lit/?
>>25044815Déjà tu baisse d’un ton le grammaire nazi qui a le zizi plus dure d’avoir relevé une faute que les dix dernières fois ou t’as baisé ta sœur. T’es l’exemple parfait du français qui pense que relever une faute rend l’argument invalide. T’es la raison pour la qu’elle notre pays ne produit que des petits commissars gris dans ton genre, incapable d’inventer quoi que ce soit à part à faire passer une version eco+ de ce que les américains ont fait y’a 5ans pour une trouvaille personnelle.Secondement à 6 ans on est au cp et on voit pas encore ce niveau de grammaire. Ce que tu saurais si tu avais été en cp.Retourne te branler dans un beschrelle et faire des screen de fautes pour des neurchi de merde qui sont que des repompés de mêmes obsolète sur les internets anglophones.For those who don’t read French: I told him that his mom was a hamster and his dad reeks of older berries
just bee urself :)
>>25044638>>25044644>Essere o non essere Everything sounds better in italian :)
>>25044684even if you can’t not be, if you feel most fully actualized by defying fate, isn’t making the best apparent attempt available toward nonexistence the noblest, most dignified, and most self-honest path? I am currently suicidal but even before I was I always thought suicide seemed like the obvious answer to eternal recurrence. if eternal recurrence is true, it means that the sum total of “me” (me + the causes that brought me into being) wants to exist as I currently am. so if I - perceiving myself separate from those causes - don’t want to be, shouldn’t I act on that, and let those causes react however they may?at their core, all deeply meaningful schema of thought are attempts to end suffering. buddhism and christianity are both attempts by their creators to lead beings as much like themselves as possible as close to nonexistence as possible. but today’s world is so complicated, nobody can coherently lead anyone else anywhere meaningful. we’re all pretty close to pure individuals, and the closer you get to true awareness of your own singularity - the lonelier you get - the more aware you become that nonbeing is simply superior to being.
>>25044910I do indeed have To Be Or Not To Be memorized, as well as several other Shakespeare speeches and monologues. It's a fun trick to pull out at parties.I actually even once got a date out of it. Or it was either this or Prospero's final monologue at the end of The Tempest. One of the two. I recited it to a girl and she met me for coffee the next week.
>>25044684*looks at you enigmatically*Sigh.... Benito, were you looking for me?
>>25044700>>25044815That wouldn't be iambic pentameter anymore though
>>25044990except this line which is a million times better in … english.
