This is a rather amusing article: What if the Greek philosophers were into social networking like Facebook?
Glaucon and Cephalus rant about Donna Noble and Martha Jones, while Polemarchus tries to figure out how to beat a speeding ticket. And in the middle? Socrates is hopelessly lost.
I vowed recently that I would never read Greek philosophy again — I have my reasons, and they are legion — but this article was cute. 🙂
