    As Leo began to read the final chapter, Reflections on the Cosmic Perspective, about our true place in the universe, he was struck by a wave of existential angst.pic.twitter.com/4YgvL2Gg5D

        If that's his take on reading it, I can only imagine what was going through your head when writing it.

        The book as a whole I found to be quite enjoyable. Then again, my job gives me more existential angst than I know what to do with.

        How does existential angst differ from ordinary, run-of-the-mill, every day angst?
