Jon and Will met as roommates in freshman year of college. Jon and Will did not like each other. Then Jon and Will became best buds. Yay. But Jon went the way of the art and Will went the way of the science, so never did their two paths meet academically...until the last semester of senior year when they took PL 121: The Philosophy of Psychoanalysis. If you thought philosophy was bullshit and psychoanalysis was bullshit, just imagine putting them together in one class.
But it was fun. There was tons of Freud, Lacan and a charming Belgian professor that the ladies in the class wanted to bang. Fun times. Anyway, Jon and Will both got As in that class.
But what does that have to do with a blog focused on NBA mixed tapes for marginal players? Nothing, but this is the internet, so reasons. Jon, the apathetic artist, went straight to law school while Will, the somewhat studious science scholar, went on to do neuro research, only to end up dicking around for several years tutoring high school kids.
Now Jon is a bankruptcy lawyer and Will is a research compliance manager. We have grownup jobs because #bills. But that's not all we have. We also have a love for basketball, the internet and general procrastinating that is pure, unrelenting and evident from our g-chats. We have pretty good g-chats. At least entertaining ones. So, we thought, why not share it with the world, or at least the few people that will end up reading this. The main focus of the site will be, as previously mentioned, mix tapes of marginal NBA players like Terrence Williams or Johnny Flynn. But, as a blog named after a philosophy course we took in senior year of college, we reserve the right to talk about whatever the fuck we want. Government shutdown? Sure, why not. Miley Cyrus and the misappropriation of ratchet culture? You bet your sweet ass. Comic books? Yeah, ok, but that'll be mostly Jon, as the only comic Will ever read involved the fucking of a meat puppet. Guess who suggested that one to him?
