    Could have been a compliment. You are not an intellectual yet, but you wanna educate yourself. Nothing wrong with that.

      “Hey, there, hunka’-hunka’, wanna go somewhere more private so I can show you my Ancient Greeks?😏😏”

      Full disclosure, I’m a barely-social straight guy, I wouldn’t know flirting if it cracked my teeth with a piece of wood.

          Well, tbf, this’d work on me as well should a flame of the womanly persuasion present it to me (alongside explicit stipulations that “I do, indeed, want you for the sex, Mr. Bond,” signed in triplicate)

          So it’s all just… sexy goofy sarcasm? Oh, crap. I’ve been doing that for a llllooooong, long time without realising it might be interpreted as flirting.

        You know, some people would consider that flirting. Also, wear a mouthguard, I guess.

    How could I judge if Plato is relevant or not without reading it?

      learning about Plato from what books he wrote. is like learning about the world from watching shadows within a cave

    If I were in that situation, I think an acceptable retort would be to hold up the drumstick of chicken I am munching on, and dramatically say ‘Behold, a man!’ then take a bite and totally ignore the random infatnilizing philosophy try hard as I go back to reading.

    Maybe also, after a 30 to 60 second pause, nonchalantly ask if he happens to have any hemlock sauce, just to try to get a rise out of him.
