There is an old joke that goes like this:
It is well know that the Math department is the second cheapest department at a university. The people there only need a pencil, paper, and rubbish bin.
But which is the cheapest department?
The Philosophy department. There you don't need the bin.
- andybak 6y agoI've heard the same joke but as "pencils and erasers". That works well too.
- bryanrasmussen 6y agoyes but nowadays the Math department needs computers, so Computer Science must be cheaper.
- sharker8 6y agoAnd the computer has a skeumorphic waste bin.
- rvense 6y agoThis is mistaken, actually: philosophers do use bins, they just don't put their own writings in them.
