Below, the results of a test I took:

Which philosopher are you?
Your Result: Sartre/Camus (late existentialists)
 

The world is absurd. No facts govern it. We live well once we truly accept the world's absurdity. YOU give our life's meaning, and YOU control your world. (see Nietzsche for very closely tied beliefs) --This quiz was made by S. A-Lerer.

Nietzsche
 
W.v.O. Quine / Late Wittgenstein
 
Early Wittgenstein / Positivists
 
Immanuel Kant
 
Plato (strict rationalists)
 
Aristotle
 
Which philosopher are you?

I like Camus' outlook on life. There's  grace in the way he writes:

For an absurd work of art to be possible, thought in its most lucid form must be involved in it. But at the same time, thought must not be apparent except as the regulating intelligence.

From 'The myth of Sisyphus' by Albert Camus.

This philosophy is comforting, and it also yields good stuff to make fics out of. Just sayin'.

If you have trouble, choose the html version and copy the code, it's what I did. There's still the $nbsp; thingy though :)

Pennywise was scary, especially when he turned into a werewolf.

You're welcome :) Interesting results.

In the cave the clown transforms into a huge spider, he turns into a werewolf after he comes out of a bathroom drain. Not at all cute, like Jacob, rather horrifying :)

Yay for the absurd! :D

It's when he goes to an old house, and the werewolf wears a nice, red preppie jacket; the tufts of fur poke out of the sleeves :D

If Jake were the werewolf, IT would be more awesome :D
