You should try to describe stuff more formally or longer or specific in essays, so that you get more length
The more I've watched this, the more sense it actually makes - Mario, the idea, is an ideal, chivalrous character who risks his life daily. But once you examine Mario, the man, you realize he actually risks very little, since lives are simply a store of value, and he's rich.

@@evandien9947
Exactly. The point of an essay is to succinctly articulate information.
Strong taboos often have strong opinions behind them, thus the more they are used in an essay, the more legitimate and misinterpreted bias is possible.
Bias by itself doesn’t preclude the information from being trustworthy, but the more there is bias, the easier it is to believe them to be an untrustworthy narrator.
@@ClassicBentobox I agree that the more it is used, the worse the end result. It will lose its status as taboo and meaning of something extreme if it is something regularly used. But not all essays are meant to articulate unbiased information, you could purposely write an entirely opinionated essay, and as long as you back up your reasoning sufficiently, there's really no problem with that.
@@evandien9947
It’s definitely on a spectrum from objective to subjective. If the writer discloses their bias, it stops it from seeming misleading. Above all, presenting the information accurately and believably is the biggest standard, whether it’s opinionated or not.

I have to say, the part about Mario having a skewed sense of the value of life because he's able to buy it with money could actually be an interesting discussion for a philosophy class.

Well, yeah. If we, as the mortal beings that we are, had the ability to come back to life after our physical death, an individual life would lose its inherent value. We would all be much more reckless and foolhardy, jumping into dangerous situations with a smile on our face, just like Mario. Perchance.
Honestly that's 100% true and I bet the concept has played a part in the analysis of the history of roman and other societies, where lives lost (e.g., in murder) were attributed financial value based upon the person's social status.
And today we might consider it in the value placed upon our lives in cases of life insurance and worker's compensation. Employers don't have too care too much about safety if they don't have to pay too much when we get injured.

I would give it an F+ in psychology if you ask me... nothing he's saying goes to any point, some facts are false, is badly written and wth is a "lifekind" The + in F+ would be for the premise
honestly ita an a+ for me in both classes. but I'm stupid as fuck, so there's that.
I'm no philosophy professional, but I genuinely think this could be a real, insightful essay about the pointlessness of heroism if lives are purchasable, if only the author only cared to spend more than 10 minutes on it. Perchance.

Absolutely agree with your unfathomably precise comparison of censorship in modern academia and Orwell's precautionary remarks, which has indeed predicted the many shortcomings of our society.
Ironically I think that George Orwell would agree with the teacher here. There's an article he wrote in 1946 called "Politics and the English Language" that complains about how many political writers use vague and overly fancy words. He claimed that people used it to be purposefully vague about what they are saying and therefore make it easier to make their argument sound convincing. I may have totally misremembered the article but you can look it up yourself if you want.

Holy shit THIS is where this is from?! So I'm a philosophy TA, I teach bioethics, logic and an introduction to philosophy course. And this year I've been getting a SHIT TON of essays with the word "perchance" with it. I couldn't figure out how 40 students were continuously using this word wrong. Eventually I asked the prof I teach under wtf was going on and he said he didn't know. I then pulled one of my better students aside (aiming for med school) and asked wtf was going on. She said it was an internet meme. I couldn't figure out where this from coming from until one of my students sent me an email linking this video. Man this is way funnier than I thought it would be. I too got trolled but thankfully none of my students took on topics like this and stuck to the "perchance" part of the meme. I feel like a boomer despite being 25. I will say, i wouldn't have failed this paper. And I'll give it to my students they really got me. I can't believe they collectively decided to do this.
Update: I have some of the same students again this year for a 300 level logic course. About 10 of them confirmed they all did shrooms together in their dorm room and decided this meme was the funniest thing ever and thought I was chill enough to let it slide. No one failed the class and I gave a makeup assignment to those who scored below a 60% average at the end of the course. Class average was 78% and they nominated me TA of the year last year. I'm really happy everything ended well and appreciate the students efforts in taking a course no one willingly takes.

Jokes aside, diving into the psychology of what happens to mario when lives can be bought and sold is rather interesting. Why else would he happily kill Bowser's minions and put himself into haphazard situations if he truly feels that life is worth less than the coins he finds in boxes everyday
perchance
A coin is not value. A coin is a reward for the value Mario brings to the world. Collecting coins is not the goal, but a consequence of Mario going through the level trying to save Peach.
In the end, money is not the goal, although money comes to those who struggle looking at the abysses and then right after courageously jumping over them, overcoming those hardships.
Yes, you have to kill some turty or other in the process, but that's just how life is. Better them than you.
The system is there to make it easy. To speed up the process of getting to where you want to go.
If you don't want to go anywhere, then you'll be swept by the wind like a tanuki with a cape. And you can end up anywhere. Even a bad place.

I love how deep yet absolutely surface level this guy is. Mario, a man who can buy lives, does what? What would you do if you had infinite lives, infinite retries? Well he steps on turts I guess.
Perchance.

Stomp a turty
The more I come back to this the more enjoyment I get out of it. I don't know who has a better time with the paper: the student or the professor. Either way, this is brilliant. Perchance.
“Everyone knows Mario is cool as fuck.”
Fantastic opening. Perchance.
I saw this on Twitter. Thought "This is a good jeaney"
ppffft
Well it came true.
When Mario leaves his place to stomp a turty, he knows that he may Die. That's why I don't go to Denny's anymore.
Absolute classic.
My girlfriend and I randomly add “perchance” to sentences when we talk to each other, at which point the other says “YOU CANT JUST SAY PERCHANCE”
wholesome
Keep it up, baby!!!
you two are meant for each other
perchance
Did Your relatonship last
also did you crush turts
I have no idea why but I had to laugh so much when you said "to stomp a turty". The funniest and most intellectual piece of paper I had the honor to be a witness of it's existence. Perchance.
Hear me out. Maybe this dude has transcended the capabilities of the human mind. And he is only able to convey the meaning of life through a Mario analogy. Perchance.
Or maybe YOU have transcended, and the only way you can express the true meaning of life is through a series of "comments" left on unconnected threads.
I'm not going to say perchance, but you know I'm thinking it.
The lifekind
Perchance.
It’s the random “perchance” in a sentence all on its own that got me. Holy shit. 💀💀💀
0:06 the way he has to uncover that date format, ouch.
In a lot of places it’s day month year. Which makes a lot more sense god I fucking hate living in america
My absolute favorite part of this is the tentative “Ok.” followed by the begrudging but somewhat impatient “Fine.” finally ending in the outburst of “Why are we saying this?”
They had this clear moment of thinking that, maybe, just maybe, there was going to be an argument somewhere in there. They were waiting for it to happen, and then it just never did.
the teacher hopes were crushed just like Mario crushes turts
perchance
no goombas? no wonder he got an F
That poor teacher who had to try and grade it realistically and not get seduced by the sheer brilliance
seduced by the sheer brilliance is such a powerful line I want to say that in my daily life
I am so poisoned by the internet that upon hearing jeaney say F at the end, my first thought was that the teacher was paying respects for this students terrible essay instead of grading it
Edit: perchance
In our hearts, we all know it’s both.
Oh, they were. This essay was dead on arrival, but they were respectful enough to give it legitimate criticism anyway. F in the chat
@@scottbecker4367 i dont think so, the teacher seemed like they cared about the subject somehow
same af
Just consigning this poor bastard's grade to the void 😂😂😂
I think the best/worst part is entirely that... he had a point, sort of. Mario has multiple lives, and can continue obtaining more and more of them, by either finding mushrooms, collecting enough coins or simply stomping on enough things without touching the ground. To him, and likely to the player as well, Mario's lives aren't actually all that valuable - something to pay attention to when the extra lives run dry, perhaps, but until that time, he can keep trying as much as he wants, without any risk. He does have a chance of death, but to him, death is a minor setback. He can freely perform those kinds of heroics, because, much like everyone else, he isn't afraid of trying something when there isn't much risk involved. I imagine that kind of paper wouldn't get an A, possibly not even a B depending on the one grading it, but it would at the very least get a passing grade.
Then the one writing the paper kept littering the paper with complete nonsense like "the mythical (nonexistent?) Dr. Pepper" and "Mario is a one-percenter", and it completely ruined any chance of anyone giving it a passing grade.
Perchance. :)
Nah, every bit of it was so good the teacher was jelly
Are you the teacher who graded this and is this comment just a way for you to express your frustration? Perchance.
with this comment alone youd probably have a better grade than him
Surely, though, the fact that you can replay every level and every death has been reversed implies that mortality in the Mario universe is inherently malleable? I don't think Mario's cynicism towards murder stems from privilege, more that death doesn't mean the same thing in the Mushroom Kingdom.
Perchance.
The funniest part of all of this was that this was a philosophy essay
Perchance.
The funny thing is, you could actually make an analysis of Mario as a philosophical concept work, perhaps by using him as an analogy for a more complex theme; for example, Mario is a plumber (working class) who can only move from left to right, must collect wealth in order to extend his lifespan, and is constantly pursuing an ideal life that he cannot possess, both because of his socioeconomic status and because every time he comes close to achieving his goals, Bowser, a figure of authority and power, snatches it away and changes the conditions for him to reach it. You could definitely make an actual argument, and the teacher is clearly trying their best to give some reason to the student's madness... Perchance
And in his tireless pursuit to achieve a false dream he abandons his friends (yoshi) and indiscriminately murders without so much a hint of regret. He has become blinded by the orange glare of the carrot at the end of the stick that he will do anything to reach it.
@@Gilsworth Perchance?
If this is unironic, you are why people think philosophy is pretentious nonsense. Also if you think that's what the funny thing is about this then you seriously have no humour whatsoever, wtf.
@@michielmanders9766 then what is funny about it?
@@michielmanders9766 you must be fun at parties
I believe it was Aristotle who once said “crushing turtys is the great pleasure and challenge of life”. Coming from the man himself, surely the pseudo intellectual theory must hold true. Perchance.
Don't you mean... Aristurtle?

Whenever I feel self-conscious about my writing ability, I'll think of Phil Jamesson and his essay "Mario, the Idea vs Mario, the Man." My train of thought will change from 'man, i think this essay sucks' to 'thank FUCK i didn't write that'.
That's right, masterpieces are not for us peasants and simpletons to write
I lie awake at night and think of the fact that I will never write anything as good as this. We as a species have peaked at "Mario, the Idea vs. Mario, the man."
We will never do better, so therefore we should just give up on writing in general. Perchance.
Did you just imply that Mario is as cool as God?
@@alexeyshcherbakov5371 cool as fuck! Perchance.
It makes me sad because I know I will never write anything like this.
I thought it was a bit funny at first, but then the (nonexistent) Dr Pepper and « ??? » sucker punched me in the gut oml
Props to the teacher for failing Phil on the grounds of quality, and not concept.
He's failing him for both
he should be passed for both
Perchance
I love that he read the date day, month, then year, as it should be.
Some lovely passive aggressiveness. Perchance?

All the other essays probably had good grades, but noone cared about them, they had no impact.
This essay is unique and a lot of people like it for what it is. if the essay would compete against the best graded essay, this essay would stand out and come out the clear winner. Yet it is graded the worst. Truly an injustice

@@camera2178 Damn it I wanted to make that joke...
the last "perchance" killed me
This piece of literature is truly motivating. It moves me to think more about Mario, and why he crushes turts. This amazing poem should belong in a national museum, for all to see. Perchance.
Love how "stomping/crushing turtles" is heavily disliked

you can’t just say “perchance”
Like most, the teacher lacked conviction. Perchance
I love how the teacher hyper-crossed off the second instance of "perchance", despite the fact that the word is actually entirely acceptable in _that_ context. It's the perfect punchline to this.
I don't believe its acceptable in that context either. The word "perchance" can't be the only word in a sentence, can it?
@@gabesterwitz9054 Definitely not. I think they must have misread the period before “perchance” as a comma.
@@jonathangiese5727 I thought so
Now that I look more closely, it is a comma, so that is actually a correct use of the word, but it's still spelt with a capital that shouldn't be there lol
@@volcanic9120 nope, it's not a comma look very closely. Perchance.
The best part about this is that he actually wrote this for a midterm. He’s mad gutsy to try something like this. Too bad it didn’t work out lol
Sometimes in life you’re Mario and you’re cool as fuck. But alas, some days we are doomed to be turtles. Perchance.
You can kind of tell that the person writing this is smart and probably gets good grades based on their writing style but just went “fuck it” I love that. Perchance.
