  • And Zeppo is Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

  • "like children plays with children, and so on" LOLOL classic

  • @liamgr1 Thanks.

  • @roryphelan I wouldn't feel either bad or vain Rory. There's definitely an element of the emperor's new clothes about Zizek's pronouncements on popular culture.

  • Zizek is a smart guy and all,

    But for me this speech/recontextualizing is an example of a language game - Seeing something that simply isn't there.

    I mean, I doubt the marx brothers saw themselves individually as id, ego and superego. I presume they were just trying to be funny.

    ...

    I now feel bad and vain for bothering to make this comment, so I will be self deprecating and say that it was my ego proclaiming the above statement. lolz

  • awesome
