Ahahaha!

(For those that didn't read far enough, that was a paper written by a "post-modern random essay generator". The very fact that a random essay generator is indistinguishable from real post modern essays should probably say something...

Awesome...

... I've read articles that incomprehensible, except written by actual people... "Postmodernism Generator"...

It's amazing how most post modern papers spend the vast majority of the time just spouting out of context quotes from someone else's paper while making long winded statements that don't really say anything and then ending with some conclusion along the lines of "mind alters reality".

If the point of that generator is that post-modernist writing is usually incomprehensible, I agree. :)

Give me a book full of facts instead any day... but stuff like that, full of long, meaningless statements and purposelessly obfuscated language...

That doesn't mean it has no value, providing a new perspective can be interesting, but... trying to understand what they're saying is usually more trouble than it's worth, really...

If you really want an intellectual workout, take a course in postmodernist philosophy.
