Don’t I sometimes think scientists and engineers are the only professionals left who still want to consider metaphysical questions?

Do they consider them? Is there a large metaphysical movement in science and engineering? Wouldn’t it be considered too philosophical? Isn’t this a result of the ever increasing complexity of the “division of labor”?

You’re asking if I understand scientists and analytic philosophy students generally avoid what professionals used to call metaphysical questions?
Aren’t I joking because the only time metaphysics-ish points come up any more seems to be informally, from a science-y person, say, on a board? Often to try and shut down discussion of cultural questions?

Ah, but isn’t that evidence that some people buy into the notion of the general concept of separate spheres for science, philosophy, and culture? Or that some people just don’t take philosophical questions seriously or treat it as a joke?

Didn’t I hear good things about Five Guys but when I tried it, was not overwhelmingly impressed?

Isn’t there a Five Guys near me, which I’ve never tried? And although there is a Shake Shack in town, I only ate at the one in DC when I was there on a conference/research trip?

Big Kahuna burger seems like it might be good, but aren’t they super difficult to find? Shall I not keep Shake Shack in mind though, if ever I’m afforded the chance?

Am I out of touch for never hearing of Big Kahuna? Didn’t I find Shake Shack a little pricey (in part because DC has insane prices for ice cream) but still pretty good? Isn’t it spreading pretty fast, from what it seems like?

Yes, feeling attacked for having (nonexistent) metaphysical assumptions while your attacker also affirms other reified or essentialist ideas is funny, right?
Well, maybe at first it’s funny? Then just ironic?
And, with repetition, maybe we settle on enervating?

Isn’t In’n’Out the best fast food burger place? Did you know my favorite thing about Five Guys is the free peanuts?
Should everything I say on the topic be taken with a grain of salt since I'm a vegetarian and get the grilled-cheese on a burger bun at both places (which is quite good)?

Wasn’t it Normalize? But doesn’t Readability look intriguing?
