I remember in my Phil 100 class, there was a philosopher that stated that a lot of problems in philosophy were merely the product of categorization problems, how we refer to the world. One example, if I remember correctly, was something like, The Average Taxpayer…. a concept, a construct, only, but you could never actually meet this person, you could never share a bun with The Average Taxpayer literally.
I find it funny, however, that I can perfectly well nod in acknowledgement towards The Better Man.
