Pedestrian philosophy

Filed under: Humour by Joel @ 7:52 am, 6 March 2009.

The Australian Jewish News weekly asks a question of people its reporters meet on the street, in a “Vox Pop”. This week the reporter was apparently feeling particularly existential, as the following issue was picked for the community to respond to (Sydney Edition, Friday March 6 2009):

Question?

Some of the more inspiring responses printed include:

Yes I think there appears to be, you hear about situatons happening that make you wonder what is really going on.
Ricki, 48

I have heard that there is, but don’t know about one personally.
Henry, 75

I don’t think so, well I hope not.
Sarah, 26

And then there are more obscure responses, such as:

Yes, because they don’t have a Jewish place to go.
Eitan, 72

How would you respond to this insightful survey?

PS: Yes, their use of commas is perhaps also less-than-desirable.

  1. Was the question just “Question?” or is the post missing something?
