0392– 2167/07/07/11:45- LC’s apartment, living room
LC: I don’t want to talk about my childhood or my boner or my issues with authority or my relationship with my Mom. I want to talk about Philosophy.
Zoa: Well, it’s too bad that we’re not doing what you want right now, isn’t it?
Doc: Zoa, if I were capable of experiencing sexual arousal and possessed the requisite anatomy, you would have engendered two erections just now.
----------------------
Zoa: Creds will suffice, thanks.
Doc: Noted. I’m also noting that, even after being reminded that they have the ability to simply turn their erection off, Lee has not yet elected to do so.
LC: If we’re gonna do therapy on me, can I at least go sit down in the therapy couch? The couch that’s specifically for therapy? That’s where therapy happens, for me.
----------------------
Zoa: Yeah, I’ve been meaning to talk to you about that, actually. I couldn’t help but notice that your green couch, the one that faces the TV, is firm and right-angled, so that you can sit up and pay attention, while your blue couch is soft and fluffy, suitable for taking naps in.
Doc: Well-spotted, Zoa.
LC: That’s… I just… I like to be comfortable, okay?
----------------------
Zoa: Oh, I’m sure you do. But right now, we need standing energy. Fuck life in the face, remember? Isn’t that what your precious little boner is for?
LC: I… I don’t know what it’s for! It just is!
Doc: Yes, that is the essential difference between you and us, isn’t it?
----------------------
Zoa: Ooh, did something read ahead to existentialism?
LC: What’s existentialism?
Zoa: Something Aristotle would have disagreed with. Aristotle claimed that the essence of things predates the things’ existence, whereas Jean-Paul Sartre, two thousand three hundred years later, argued that existence comes first, with the things’ purpose being invented and applied after the fact.
----------------------
Doc: I thought you said we weren’t talking about philosophy right now, Zoa.
Zoa: As a constructed being with a purpose that predates my existence, it seemed relevant, if only as a segue into asking the purpose of Lee’s boner.
LC: Okay, I’m turning it off, I’m turning it off, gimme a second!
