Type B. Replace "meaningful things in life" with God, fairies, the aether, Pokemon, or any other fiction, and those in type A can still have "productive conversation" about things that do not exist at all.
- skrebbel 12y agoI love how well these comments here demonstrate the GP's point. I mean, woa life must be dull for you B people! I love having productive conversation about God, fairies, the aether and Pokemon. Warmly recommended!

- Hasu 12y agoPreference orderings have very little to do with "meaning in life" or "meaningful things in life". "Meaning in life" is a vague, ill-defined phrase whose referent is not a real thing.
