You Do Not Want To Test My 'Powers of Philosophy'

Many thanks to Richard Zach at LogBlog for giving me a reason to get back in the game here at Metametaland.

So you think that philosophers are some type of girly men, and that you can just kick sand in their faces with impunity?

Thank again, little-minded man.

For now, the true Ubermen will reveal themselves. I give you:

Philosophical Powers!

My favorites are:

"Nefarious" Neitzsche

Powers: remarkably original, ahead of his time

Weaknesses: crazy

"Killer" Kant

Notes: The reader may wonder, "Why is Kant blue with red tiger stripes?" Well, why twelve categories? I don't know. It was decided that a toy representing as important a philosopher as Kant ought to be unique in some way, that there ought to be some kind of toyly manifestation of his philosophical greatness. Blue with red tiger stripes was deemed sufficiently bad ass.

"Liable" Leibniz

Powers: monads

Weaknesses: monads

Notes: As these Leibniz figures are painstakingly manufactured to be exactly alike (even in regard to spatio-temporal location), collectors will be disappointed to discover that there is only one in existence, in accord with Leibniz' Law. Also try Leibniz' delicious cookies!
