Sounds like a Philosophy Prof

Ah the humor of philosophers. Our favorite argument as to why one ought not tweet is the Kantian Argument-

Kantian Argument

(1) Act only according to that maxim whereby you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law.

(2) I can will that it should become a universal law that no one Twitters; indeed, I can do so with ease and without the slightest whiff of self-contradiction.

(3) Therefore, no one should Twitter.
