Brought to You by The Unemployed Philosophers Guild

The origins of the Unemployed Philosophers Guild are shrouded in mystery. Some accounts trace the Guild's birth to Athens in the latter half of the 4th century BCE. Allegedly, several lesser philosophers grew weary of the endless Socratic dialogue endemic in their trade and turned to crafting household implements and playthings. (Hence the assertions that Socrates quaffed his hemlock poison from a Guild-designed chalice, though vigorous debate surrounds the question of whether it was a "disappearing" chalice.)

Others argue that the UPG dates from the High Middle Ages, when the Philosophers Guild entered the world of commerce by selling bawdy pamphlets to pilgrims facing long lines for the restroom. Business boomed until 1211 when Pope Innocent III condemned the publications. Not surprisingly, this led to increased sales, even as half our membership was burned at the stake.

More recently, revisionist historians have pinpointed the birth of the Guild to the time it was still cool to live in New York City's Lower East Side. Two brothers turned their inner creativity and love of paying rent towards fulfilling the people's needs for finger puppets, warm slippers, coffee cups, and cracking up at stuff.

  • Wouldn't it be nice to have Sigmund Freud around to remind you to take your medication?
  • It's possible (sort of) thanks to the Freud Pill Box. This handy, fine chrome pill box features a high-gloss image of Freud himself, along with a speech bubble reading, "Don't forget your meds."
  • When you press the button, the latch springs open to reveal compartments for your Paxils, Klonipins, Welbutrins, or any other sort of pill.
  • If you prefer, you can remove the divider to make one large compartment for your tablets and capsules.
  • The Freud Pill Box doesn't actually speak, so if you hear it talking to you, then perhaps you've missed a dose of something or other.
