The Thousands

What is Happiness? Where is Love? Why did my high school class vote me most likely to die alone, simultaneously choking on a rat skeleton and being gnawed at by possums? How do I fix my broken phone (because throwing it into a pot of boiling water and yelling “Fire cannot kill a dragon!” certainly isn’t working)? Can I smell your hair?

I’m certain that at one stage or another all of us have posed such questions to others or ourselves. We have sought answers in such places as a kiddie pool at 4am after a bottle of scotch and a wheel of brie, and have been left unfulfilled.

Search no further, my friends! Here be wisdom! The University of Adelaide Philosophy Club meets every Wednesday to address all your existential, ethical, political, social and neurological dilemmas, with orations by many of the pre-eminent thinkers this state has to offer. And the best thing about Philosophy Club (other than the super cheap wine and cheese) is that, unlike many of the other hip clubs for kids such as Alcoholics Anonymous or the British National Party, this one is open to everyone!

Check out their Facey page to find out more information on how you can have centuries of knowledge, agonised over for thousands of years by brilliant minds, crammed into your head over a glass of cheap red. You need never wander aimlessly and alone through this hell we call existence again. Bitchin’!
