According to one take from urbandictionary.com, a ‘deepity’ is A proposition that seems to be profound because it is actually logically ill-formed. A deepity balances precariously between multiple interpretations, at least one of which is obvious and trivial and at least one of which would be earth-shaking—except that it is false. Cast this into the ponderous context of mumbo New Age lexicon, and here’s what happens: twenty subjects, twenty predicates, twenty endings. Press the button and a random choice is made of each. No matter how many times you click, an utterly credible New Age-ism appears. Kind of a worry, isn’t it? |
