from the scrolls of the Philosophy Society at the University of Edinburgh:
S must drink iff they are accused of…
- Talking continuously for more than three minutes
- Claiming that the other person can’t understand what you are saying because they have no access to your internal mental states
- Using the word ‘surely’
- Begging the question (one drink)
- Refusing to acknowledge you are begging the question (two drinks)
- Lying about what texts you have read (down your entire drink)
- Saying ‘Well everything is subjective anyway’
- Taking the existence of physical reality for granted
- If you defend utilitarianism you must divide the beer in your glass with the rest of the people at the table
- If you talk about the Hard Problem of Consciousness, or are arrogant enough to propose a solution, you must face the Hard Problem of Remaining Conscious by drinking hard spirits
Shamelessly made public, but with much reverence for PhilSoc. Sláinte my friends.
