A good friend of mine, who just started as an undergrad stem major approached me during Lunch. He was quite euphoric, which is nothing special for him, he is a nice always smiling & also quite smart person.

"I met such an amazing guy today.", He said "he is in one of my physics classes."

I exhaled more air than usual through my nose to show him that I am pleasently surprised by these news before I look back down into my notes about Platons Politeia.

"He is a real brain, dude. He knows more than anyone else I know and he is also into philosophy. He is really smart!" "That's cool." I said and he walked away.

3 weeks later I get a call from the same friend. He wants to ask if I want to hang out "the brain" is also there. I had better to do, so I agreed and we met up.

The brain was a small very clean looking guy. He looked like a Italian with glasses and a classy outfit.

Some time into the conversation I say, that I heard that he is into philosophy and what he is reading and where his interests are.

He tells me that he read Descartes and some Aristotle but that he doesn't have much time to read more at the moment. As I tried to reply with a nice "oh that's cool." he suddenly interrupts me.

"But the best of course is Sam Harris."

"Oh really?" I said quite shocked

"Oh you know him? I listen to every podcast! He is awesome."

"Yeah... I ... I know him but you know ... Not the biggest fan."

"What? Why?"

I really didn't want to start one of THESE discussions so I said: "I really don't want to start one of THESE discussions sooo...". However the brain didn't care and tried to push me into this thing.

I tried to explain quickly that Sam wants to nuke us and that he doesn't understand crap about religion in a polite way. The brain laughed, "ahh yes they are misquoting him all the time." He said...

TLDR: Friend says he met a nice guy. Guy is literally Hitler.
