existentialism
you can use this word in pretty much any context and it will make you sound pretentious and/or confuse the person you’re talking to.
it’s a technique refined and highly over-utilized by pseudo-intellectuals.
“thoughts of existentialism breezed through my cavern of a mind as i walked under the concave arches in the courtyard of my prestigious university.”
“there i was, caught in an existential dilemma. i decided to run the red light.”
“i felt that the existentialist undertones in the simpsons represented the decay of religion in society.”
existentialism in its purest form is any philosophy which states that existence precedes essence; that is to say, that there is no inherent purpose in life (though normally this is not carried through to nihilism.). it also states that the physical world does not necessarily precede the conscious state, as a conscious mind must find itself in a world to attain consciousness in any meaningful state.
nihilism is an extreme version of existentialism, as are most forms of solipsism.

a philosophy which emphasizes the importance of choice. it suggests that we only exist (as human beings) if we make our own decisions independently of outside influence. however, while this freedom allows us complete control over our own destinies, it also suggests that we are the sole control over our destinies and are, as a result, isolated from g-d, society, and ourselves. this leads many to the conclusion that existentialism is depressing.

guy1: no i believe in existentialism. i make my own decisions.
existentialism is the reason why the people with the highest i.q.s in the world go traveling in tibet then become garbagemen.
“i used to think eistein was smart, then i read about existentialism and i don’t beleive in the word smart anymore.”

but you don’t have to acknowledge it if you don’t particularly want to.
