No no no. None of that nonsense today. Instead, I hope to come up with entirely new nonsense!

Ah, but is there really any new nonsense? There is nothing new under the sun, and all that.

Oh, stop it. If there is a limited number of stories, then the trick is to reinvent them. ("Droid meets droid. Droid loves droid. Droid turns out to be chameleon. Chameleon turns out to be slime beast. Slime beast loves slime beast. Droid loses droid, chameleon, and slime beast. It's a classic tale!") Besides, I really don't want to get into a pseudointellectual discussion today.

Ah, but wasn't it Kant who originally said--

No it wasn't, goddammit. You can't even think of one quote from Kant. You're just throwing his name around to try and sound intelligent.

Um, he was a real pissant, who was just as schlocked as Hegel?

Go away, kid, you bother me.
