      This isn't an ontological thought exercise. If they've got a nasty infestation of PONCs, you can see why the 1st Amendment traumatizes them.https://twitter.com/waltshaub/status/892188132786962433 …

      If there's even the slightest chance I used "ontological" correctly, you can join me in imagining a PONC tweeting "I'm asked therefore I am"

      Semiotics. Ha! These aren't words, they're seditious little beasts, with their tongues hanging out waiting for you to answer them. ALIVE!

      But is what's at stake their name or their nature? The form or quintessence of a PNOC?

      Their very existence and its meaning. (Seesh, I had to post this 3 times to overcome autocorrect. What do you call that?)

          From my slim understanding of Heidegger I'd second "ontological" since it implies that existence and meaning are the same. Just curious
