A Scientific... Release

You know, you really do learn something new every day.
Today, we learned the roots of the word “Philosophy.”
Philosophy breaks down into:
“Philia” which means love, and—
“Soph” which means wisdom.

That’s all fine and good, but can anyone define wisdom?
It’s tricky. But here, today, I will break it down for you a bit further.

Are you ready?

Wisdom actually breaks down into two words rooted in modern english:
"Wizz," which is a verb meaning "to urinate on," and—
"Dome," a colloquial term for one's head.


Ergo, Philosophy is the “love of wisdom,” or “the love of urinating on one’s head.”






Hey, it explains all of the pretentiousness.

I'm not sure if I should take offense atthe "dome" comment......
