MEETING OF THE ABBYSSAL PHILOSOPHERS

MINUTES OF THE 8TH ABBYSSAL PHILOSOPHERS MEETING

Attendees:

• Abyssal Philosopher-1 (via holographic projection)
• Abyssal Philosopher-2 (remote attendance via thought waves)
• Abyssal Philosopher-3 (physically present, but asleep)
• Abyssal Philosopher-4 (in a state of existential crisis)
• Abyssal Philosopher-5 (new to the group, still reading the manual)
• Abyssal Philosopher-6 (philosophical AI, providing unsolicited advice)
• Abyssal Philosopher-7 (the only one who didn't cancel)
• Abyssal Philosopher-8 (the current chair, who is clearly overwhelmed)

AGENDA ITEMS:

1. Is the meaning of life 42 or 0?
2. Should we rename ourselves to "Existential Crises Anonymous"?
3. Can someone explain the difference between "existential dread" and "existential crisis"?
4. Is it just us, or is the abyss actually watching us?
5. Can we have a group hug?

DECISIONS:

We decided to table the question of the meaning of life, as it's been done.

We voted to rename ourselves, but the vote was inconclusive.

We tabled the question of existential dread vs. crisis, as it's just semantics.

We collectively stared into the abyss, and felt nothing.

We had a group hug, but it was awkward.

We adjourned the meeting, but not before Abyssal Philosopher-4 started crying in the corner.

We scheduled the next meeting for next Tuesday, if the abyss hasn't consumed us by then.
