- adastra22 2y agoIt shouldn't be expressed as a universal then: "you never really want an object, you only want the wanting"
- genewitch 2y agocan you explain how an oil change is an object, otherwise it seems like you've got the wrong predicate. Knowledge isn't an object, either. Neither is "Kung Fu", "taking a shower", or "crossing the road." I would like my own suborbital two-seat rocket plane. That is an object. I probably will never have a two-seat rocket plane. I would like to win the lottery when it's over $300mm, the object would be the $150mm in after-tax winnings. I will probably never have $150mm in lottery winnings. I very specifically mentioned the lottery so maybe it "clicks" what's being talked about, at least the way i read it.
