User blog comment:JakeTheManiac/Descartes vs Archimedes. Mega Rap Battles of History 7/@comment-26494243-20150814054851

Archimedes won by a lot. This wasn't bad, but it wasn't that great either. Descartes didn't have a lot of pay off. "If I lived today, I’d be running and gunning the most respected universities!" was the best line from him. But it was followed up by "If you lived today, you’d be locked up for public nudity!" which is about seven syllables shorter.

"I think therefor I rap, what's your excuse?" doesn't make sense to me. How was that Descartes excuse for rapping? Why does anyone need an excuse?

Third nit pick, why is there almost no reference to Descartes being deeply religious? That's like the #1 thing he's known for. There was a line referencing skeptics, but it was directed at Archimedes and didn't came full circle imo.

Archimedes lines were dope tho, and the battle was probably better than about half of what I've read from Grav.

I like the formatting tho. The spacing between the lines was pleasing.
