I am experimenting with a new strategy. It's called "pick the team on the left for all non-NFL games." Basically what I do is I pick the team on the left hand side.

The left is a relative direction we as humans have chosen to define, in order to provide spacial reference. It is arbitrary in its definition, but exists as a strongly supported societal norm.

Usually, when great minds ask questions, they search for a deeper meaning, to better understand the gods, the universe, and the nature of all things, not just for petty definitions, which explains your post, I suppose.

who or what defines depth? suppose your understanding of the question was shallow in its nature, how then would that affect the greatness of your mind?

I am Testiclese, one of the last surviving philosophers from ancient Greece. Athenian of birth, but it has been so long since I spoke the language that I've quite forgotten it entirely.

Ah, an excellent question, and one that lends itself far more to discourse and learning than 'what is left'. I am but a simple man, and not of particularly great knowledge, but I am a man of great curiosity, so perhaps you can teach me a few things about the nature of 'deep' topics.

So let us start with the first, and most obvious question, and we can proceed from there: what is the meaning of 'deep'? Not in the physical sense, mind you--unless we are to speak of the form of a thing, there is little point in exploring such topics.

depth, as i perceive it, suggests layered meanings, perhaps even infinitely layered. there are things that are more easily observed at their primary layer than others, but often i find that people are satisfied with a simple observation and unwilling to apply the effort it takes to explore an idea more thoroughly.

take, for instance, the question, "what is left?". one could surmise that the intent of the question was simply to acquire a surface level understanding of "left" as a direction or orientation. or one could ponder the idea of left more profoundly and consider things such as how 'left' came to be, what made 'left' necessary or so widely accepted, or what life would be like without 'left'.

i would very much like to hear your perspective
