My contribution to the internet’s go-for-broke project of converting all philosophy into Trolley Problem Memes.
(BTW, the official Facebook page is in the process of posting some of these: here’s Ship of Theseus, Buridan’s Ass, Sorites, China Brain, plus more to come…)
(Extra info on what I was going for in the Newcomb, Simone Weil (click “Didn’t Get the Joke?”), “Innocent Murder”, and Smullyan problems. The rest can be easily Googled.)

Chuck Tingle is heading down a track. You see on the path ahead of him, five of his butt, all ready to pound him in the butt. You can save him from this fate by throwing the switch to the second track, but down that path you see the copy of his new manuscript, “Pounded in the Butt by the Manuscript Containing the Trolley Problem in Which I May or May Not Be Pounded in the Butt by Five of My Own Butt”. This manuscript will likely pound him in the butt. Do you flip the switch?
The fact that I understood every word of this post disturbs and enrages me.
That’s it guys, go home. We have a Chuck Tingle trolley problem. This just can’t be beat (maybe pounded though. In the butt.)
