Honestly I'm nearly 60, and I never liked Mad. It felt juvenile when I was 12.

- coldtea 7y agoYeah, I also read Plato at 12 (or Heidegger if I wanted something light).
- Der_Einzige 7y agoHeidigger isn't worth reading by anyone of any age. He's one of the OG Charlatans before DnG and Lacan beat him out
- coldtea 7y agoI was joking (to make a point about the elitism of the parent), but still, that's like your opinion, man. He is still considered one of the biggest thinkers of philosophy in the 20th century, personal warts and all. Plus, as a European, I wouldn't trust people with analytical/anglo-saxon philosophical tendencies to know philosophy when they see it (e.g. re D/G and Lacan).
- lobotryas 7y agoHonestly your joke did not translate over the internet. It read like you were bragging about being very smart.
- dillonmckay 7y agoI enjoyed it, but it was elementary school reading for me. I stopped in 5th grade. By 5th grade, I had a small portable TV I had hooked up to cable, so I could watch A&E’s ‘An Evening at the Improv’ after official bedtime. By 12, Saturday Night Live was also a go-to.
