I spotted this in a Google Alert. I am not the biggest fan of Richard Dawkins, however, this clip of him dissecting a very odd feminist critique of physics is quite funny.

That was a chuckle, but did you catch “Feminist makes a compelling case for feminism”? Sandre’ Guy has a great take on our loud, red-headed feminist friend.
The Amazing Athiest has a great one too! Laughing my ass off!
Postmodernism Disrobed
Funny stuff gwallen. Thought you’d appreciate this quote by my alter-ego Miles Pennwright, Art Critic:
“The teleological apotheosis of academic intellectualism impels current vanguardism to manifest, in reality, the eradication of art through the encumbrances of indigeonous phenomenology.” 1983
I short, art has intellectualized itself to death.
That is funny :). It would be funnier if people like that didn’t have so much power.
LOL – I’ll leave the understated delivery of Richard Dawkins to speak for itself.
Have you seen the Judith Butler sentence that caused a minor controversy when it got given a prize for being inscrutable?:
Judith was inspired to pen a slightly snotty reply about it. Rather than chuckle, own up to the fact her sentence was appallingly badly written, she doubles-down, and claims that “Scholars are obliged to question common sense, interrogate its tacit presumptions and provoke new ways of looking at a familiar world.”
Anybody can create postmodern garbage…
