Astute readers will recall that we have seen P-Zombie Pete before (though not by that name).
Sorry if this comic is sort of all over the place. I am very sleep deprived today, so random stream-of-thought comic is what you get!
Oh! And I almost forgot, the Zombie Karl Popper comic was featured in the newest edition of the Philosophers’ Carnival, which you can check out here!
I am so sorry but I just thought about the intro to the second level of Halo 2… “Regret. Regret.” “Any idea what it means?” “Dear humanity: we regret starting a war, we regret coming to earth, and we most definitely regret that the corp just blew up our raggedy #@$ fleet!” “Uh rah!”
Heh. Or something like that.
Do I regret anything? Well… sometimes I regret being a jerk when I was younger. Because back then I actually had a conscience and now I am stuck feeling bad about stuff from the past. As for the state of my conscience now… heh…
Hahaha. Isn’t the zombie guy supposed to act like it hurts? But he doesn’t. He’s not a real zombie! He’s only a fake zombie.
Ok well that was a little left-field.. still funny though! 🙂
[…] sketches. So that’s probably why I find this contemporary, philosophically acute, esoteric latest comic strip from Chaos Pet strip a breath of fresh, hilarious air: "Regrets" by Chaos […]
Canuovea: Well, you must still have some remnants of that conscience, or you wouldn’t continue to feel bad about the past.
Emil: hah, he is just a very sloppy p-zombie who sometimes forgets not to reveal his lack of subjective mental states.
Anna: Yay!
Wow, we have coinciding regrets. I need to set more things on fire.
Then per definition he is not a P-zombie, unless of course he is a zombie version of some human who goes around thinking he is a zombie that doesn’t have subjective experiences! Aha!
Quinian: Don’t we all
Emil: Hah! That is one possibility.
There is always that one damn possibility you can’t get rid off (i.e. prove to me impossible/inconsistent), isn’t there? 😀
A man is not old as long as he is seeking something. A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams.
