Happy Birthday, Jaden Smith: 18 of the Internet Poet's Most Philosophical Tweets

Actor, model and philosopher Jaden Smith turns 18 today. Though he's got experience in music, fashion and film, Jaden's Twitter feed might just be the best way to get to know him, through his musings on humanity, education and crystals. We've learned so much from him, it only feels fair to pass on the wisdom. He worked hard for this. We worked hard for this. We all worked so hard for this.


One thing you learn from Jaden's Twitter is that he cries a lot, which ... same, tbh.


It really is.


Like we said, same.


Jaden's not just interested in the concept of crying, he also repeatedly returns to the idea of mirrors ...


There's a lot to unpack here; it's not really worth even trying unless you want to discover everything you know about life is wrong.


To be fair, we came to the same conclusion the first time we saw Inception.




Think about it.


We'd like to think that this is actually an old Smith family saying.


"Existential yeses" is actually a really good band name.


This is the Snapchat generation's "it's not you, it's me."


That she is.


Presented without comment.


Unsure if he means that math puts him to sleep or he just likes doing math while tired or?


In hindsight, this could have been a prediction/metaphor for Brexit.


Same.


Same.


This is actually more popularly attributed to Mark Twain (citation needed).


Fact: Jaden is a very matter-of-fact tweeter. "Here's the deal," he'll say, and then just drop a bomb.
