Happiness, The Secret To (CAC Edition)

0 Conversations

Just a few months ago, a group of philosophers worked out the thing that has been bugging the galaxy since its creation; the long sought after, elusive, thought to not even exist except in a deranged and deluded imagination: Secret to happiness.

It goes as follows:

The Secret to Happiness, according to the philosophers, is to be insane.

Here is their explanation: apparently, in order to be happy, you need to be wearing iron toesocks (the reason for this is still unclear). However, as any self-respecting pedestrian can tell you, iron toesocks don't exist exept in a deranged and deluded imagination. So, if you think that you have iron toesocks, then you are obviously insane. However, the only way to be truly happy is to think that you have iron toesocks. Therefore, we must conclude that the only way to be truly happy is to be insane.

Please tell me how this works, because I haven't the foggiest.
