    2:09 as a guy who studies (in high school) philosophy i can tell you exactly how one becomes a philosopher
    You just need to:
    1. Be Smart
    2. Think that you're more important than others
    3. Answer problems that almost nobody asked

    The reason Welsh names are so long and look like that is because they are very specific about naming things. For example York means “wild boar town” or “rich in wild boar”.
    Whereas *Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantsiliogogogoch* means “St Mary’s Church in the hollow of the white hazel near the rapid whirlpool of Llandysilio of the red cave”

And even if lucky enough to avoid those, you also got the tropical environment which includes diseases, wildlife, etc.
