The GRE and the Angst of a Philosopher

"You'll do better on the GRE by putting aside your feelings about real education and surrendering yourself to the strange logic of the standardized test."

Cracking the GRE, 21.

On a completely unrelated note, as a philosopher I often feel angst. The question is: how to express it without freaking anybody out and yet feeling a sense of release or satisfaction afterward?

You should write them down on a piece of paper, burn the edges to make it look cooler, then leave them in time capsules along with journals so that you'll become a lot more famous after you're dead and none of your friends are around anymore anyway.

Or you can post them on blogs, which will only be read by intellectually curious strangers and friends who are interested in the same questions :)
