Why should I start?
This guy philosophies.
One of my favourite anecdote is the guy who was stopped by Greek police for generally looking suspicious, and accused of spying.
"But I'm just here for the conference! I am a philosopher"
"Prove it."
" ... I... well.... Hmm... That's actually... I mean... "
After about half an hour, they let him go.
Haven't I already started? What is a 'start' anyway?
