How many of you considered yourself an "existentialist"?

[Coho]

I decided today, I am not an "existentialist." This philosophical attitude is nothing but poison for the mind. My favorite book of all time used to be Albert Camus' "the stranger" albeit I read it in French. Now, I don't know what I am but I know what I am not.

The only thing I know, is that you have too much time on your hands...

 

[Coho]

My work revolves around reading on the computer. And I do have time right now to spare. Lakewolf, My spanish is rusty, but does your sig read: My little heart is "...." for your love, .....I write you a song. You will not tell her/him nothing....I want you so much!, that I am a crazy bohemian...don't tell him the village.

That are the lyrics of a bachata song by Aventura "Mi corazoncito" in english "my little heart"

translated

my little heart is on mourning because of your love, I light two little candles and write you this song..., Don't tell nobody, about how much I love you ! , That I am a crazy bohemian, Don't go gossiping around the town ! ...

I used to think that, but then I realized that I don't have any say in the matter.

[Get Smart]

I used to consider myself an Existentialist, now I've converted and become a Narcissist

 

[itsstillmatt]

I am a fauvist.

 

[Mute]

I used to be, but I find that I have much more important things to do with my life.

I am an extreme solipsist. Be happy that you amuse me, lest you cease to be.

In what way is existentialism poison for the mind?

I'd never heard of solipsism. I think I've found my new favorite philosophy.

Can there be two solipsists? The mind boggles!

Sure, it's like parallel universes intersecting or something.
