In Plato’s cave, bitches were mirin’ his shadow on the wall while he was flexing.
That makes Diogenes mocking him even more funny
I like to imagine that Diogenes was the age of antiquity era equivalent of a 5 foot five dude who legit has no fear of death and makes it everyone elses problem by being a goblin.
Jesus fucking Christ, that’s my friend Spider. He’s taller than that, sorta.
But if you knew how many times I’ve had to beat someone’s ass because he has zero fear of getting his kicked, you’d think I was an idiot for still being his friend. Dude just does not give a fuck and will say exactly what he wants, period.
Now, he’s not actually an asshole, he doesn’t go around fucking with people as a hobby. But when people are already being annoying, he doesn’t back down, play nice, or otherwise accept it.
I think everyone else’s problem with him was more routinely related to his regularly and casually jerking off in public.
maybe plato shouldn’t flex so much
Diogenes and his motivations for being a goblin is not independent as to why people found his goblin behavior annoying. The problem is that if they tried killing him for it he would win.
Behold, a man!
Plato didn’t skip pre-workout, just pre-Socratics
Flex on them, philosopher-king
It’s a meme and not what happened at all.
It’s pretty much correct (well, except the medal; maybe a wreath of celery or pine, but he competed in the Isthmian games, not the Olympics).
His real name was allegedly Aristocles. Plato was his wrestling nickname (and does indeed mean broad, referring to his physique).
He believed that physical exercise was an integral part of a proper education, and applied that principle to himself.
So he was basically Nacho Lebre? You have a good source for this? I wouldn’t mind reading it myself.
