ode to me

socrates believed the unexamined life is not worth living.

he believed in asking questions about ourselves.

and look what it got him!

freedom fact: karl marx wasn't so smart! he spelled "capital" with a "k!" his name was probably carl marx and he didn't even know it. ~ the colbert report

a k is a universal symbol of solidarity with the socialist agenda, there, justin. hence its inclusion in my name.

i thought a compromise was wisest. didn't want to usurp socrates' original intent completely. just, you know, subtly hint that he should return to his roots. which, as i recently read on wikipedia, were socialist. or should i say, sock-ialist.

ckompromise schmopromise, havent you been listening to Colbert.
Bush's way or the highway, so, I suppose that its neither socrates or sockrates, or even Sockrates, but "that great greek freedom fighter who committed soupicide for truthiness."
