Connecting with other people

• Interpreting metaphors in the same way seen as a means of connecting with other people (meaningful because it is falliable)

  • Wittgenstein in PI: “Sometimes people we cannot find our feet with them”

    • If you tell a joke that someone laughs at, you find youself in that person. Gratifying.

    • If you tell a joke that someone doesn’t laugh at, we react poorly, like something has gone wrong.
