I´d thought so...
Recently, I went thru most of all mailing lists listed in Indonesian language, and I was quiet supprised - shocked I might say- when I found out that mailing list of ´Filsafat´ (philosophy) is so dry, poor and empty.
Most of the postings are based on -literaly- textbook thinkings, and often is not match with the context of living nowdays. And when there are topics being posted, mainly about ´religion´ topics, or some short of ´history´.
Where -in my opinion- ´religion´ for some short it can´t be considered as ´philosophy´ because the thoughts categorized as ´philosophy´ -as we all know- is focused on the human and humanity which is -continously and constantly- ´up-dated´ in it´s current social contexts. (I know some of you would think that this statement of mine -on the paragraph above- is still debatable. But I would like to leave it into another thread of discussion. At least, not in this blog.)
This phenomenon -I might say- put me into a -temporarily- conclusion (question) : Is Philosophy requires -something- very serious and deep in the state of mind?
So, I went to ´Prof. Google´ feeding him/her with the keyword of ´fun philosophies´. The results were, no single sentence contented by those two words, ´fun´ and ´philosophies´ are merged as one.
But, I still believe that there is someone out there, have their toughts and philosophies about something, which is meaningful, deep thoughts, but unique and fun as well... If you are the one that I meant by this ´Fun Philosophers´ please share your thoughts and links into this blog, or if you actualy know any other links that match with the criteria, please leave your comments.
This blog of ´Fun Philosophies´ is where I would gathered all the thoughts, contributed by those people who have put themselves -minds and mentaly- to bring their thoughts in order to give more meanings in this live, with their ´unique´ and ´fun´ ways.
´Fun Philosophies´ can be based on businesss, sports, parentings, cookings, arts, politics, social and cultural fields as well as life in general.
For example:
Kopitalisme
Is a somekind of 'perspective' or a way to see things as a 'cartoon' and caricature'. From a mind and mental frames to the socio-cultural and political levels.
Terminology of "Kopitalisme" is taken from the words of "Kopi" and "Kental". Which means "Thick/Black Coffee" to match it with the context of English language. The word of "isme" is just a parody. Created by I. Amannagappa.

philoSophies
philoSophie’s ™ are fun thoughts on life that have evolved into inspirations on friendship, love, and confidence. The character, Sophie, is brought to life by both original drawings and quotes from creator, Joanna Alberti.
Her fun spirit and outlook on life are ideals all women should live by.Each philoSophie is hand embellished. Sophie’s charm is accentuated with the use of glitter and blush.
