I made a version of this a couple months ago but wanted to re-do it with the Garfield Sans font and a watermark.

I was a somewhat-smart & somewhat smartass HS kid, and at the time, would have loved stuff like that... up to a point. Latching on to whatever I might have understood, and riffing on it like a boss, as if I understood the whole concept.
So typical of me, and seemingly others, along the lines of the "a little knowledge" concept, if you know what I mena.
Today, decades later, my heads-a-whirling just trying to properly analyse all that and come to grips with it. Damn. Still, one thing I came to appreciate is that my cousin indeed became a doctor of philosophy, and significant advocate of womens' right in Europe. And I realised at some point that me trying to argue with her with my 'HS mindset upon philosophy' would have been pretty hilarious, indeed.
Bonus points, because she's not the type to put anyone down or intentionally 'win' an argument, like the trap I sometimes fall in to. No, more often she just keeps asking questions until a person with sense starts to realise... well, a lot of things, haha.
