What's the difference between a philosopher and an engineer? About 80,000 dollars a year.
How many philosophers does it take to change in a light bulb?
"Hmmm... well there's an interesting question isn't it?" "Define 'light bulb'..."
"How can you be sure it needs changing?"
An engineer, an economist, a physicist, and a philosopher are hiking through the hills of Scotland. On the top of a hill they see a black sheep. "What do you know," the engineer remarks. "The sheep in Scotland are black." "No, no", protests the economist. "At least one of the sheep in Scotland is black." The physicist considers this a moment. "That's not quite right. The truth is that there's at least one sheep which is black from one side." "Well, that's not quite right either," interjects the philosopher. "There appears to be something describable as a 'sheep' that seems to be black from one side..."
Psychologists think they're experimental psychologists.
Experimental psychologists think they're biologists.
Biologists think they're biochemists.
Biochemists think they're chemists.
Chemists think they're physical chemists.
Physical chemists think they're physicists.
Physicists think they're theoretical physicists.
Theoretical physicists think they're mathematicians.
Mathematicians think they're metamathematicians.
Metamathematicians think they're philosophers.
Philosophers think they're gods.
