What's your problem with Hedonism, /lit/?

From what I can tell, it seems quite enjoyable.

Because hedonism is the shallowest form of happiness. You will endlessly sate your desires, only to desire more and more.

>> No.6236733

Because you can never get as high as you did during that first hit

Because the hangover in the morning is always greater than the party last night

Because most things, quite possibly everything, loses its power over time.

Plebs having debauched fun isn't hedonism. They aren't consciously trying to maximise pleasure in their lives, they just have monkey orgies.

Pic related is a real hedonist.

everyone is a hedonist whether they like it or not so it doesn't really mean anything

I'm certain that a simple case of brain-trauma could easily take away your self-consciousness.

And then you could be happy.
