- throwawayForMe2 7y agoKurt Godel starved himself to death after his wife was hospitalized because he would only eat food she cooked! Wow
- 0xdeadbeefbabe 7y agoI'm inclined to read between the lines on that one.
- Loughla 7y agoI don't understand your statement.
- tekkk 7y ago"Later in his life, Gödel suffered periods of mental instability and illness. He had an obsessive fear of being poisoned; he would eat only food that his wife, Adele, prepared for him." There's your between the lines. He was mentally ill later in his life, which caused his untimely death. I don't know what you were reading between the lines, but if it was making fun of an old man and his mental illness, please keep it to yourself.
- JasonFruit 7y agoThere were a lot of ways of reading the implications of their unclear post, but you assumed the worst and attacked. That doesn't contribute to a reasonable discussion.
- tekkk 7y agoIf somebody is being unreasonably ambiguous about an issue I feel personally strong about I feel it's my responsibility to notify the author that you shouldn't teeter between comedy and seriousness. Maybe I would say it in milder manner were it in person, but I think you should at least put the effort to let the reader know, that you are not mocking the individual in question.
- JasonFruit 7y agoI disagree with your approach. Thank you for explaining it.
- tekkk 7y agoI see. Also I have to admit the OP filled my other checkbox which is low-effort content intended to be amusing. Which I expect to read in Reddit but not here. And I do like to take confrontational stance in effort to make the other party to see my point of view in stronger light. I don't see it useful to try to avoid showing strong emotions in text or in person, I think trying to be neutral in all situations just makes everything very plain. And as a disclaimer I did not downvote you nor do I see any purpose to it. If somebody tries to explain themselves in coherent fashion I think it's admirable even though I might disagree with them.
- JasonFruit 7y agoNeither did I downvote you; I was concerned that you might think so, but I didn't want to discuss it, because I know that's frowned upon here. The low-effort try for a laugh bothers me, too.
- 0xdeadbeefbabe 7y agoHuh I was thinking of loneliness.
