You think those are "original ideas"?
Not all "creativity" is valuable, no matter what the "participation awards" people may tell you.

You don't even know what an original idea is. Go back to your politics shithole..

Thinking an artist has no original ideas. LOL!

With the amount of possible sentences in the English language being around 10^570, which is far greater than the amount of atoms in the universe, originality isn't so much a gift as it is an inevitability. Any old babbling fool will come up with something never said before every now and then. The challenge is how to do that and STILL say something incredibly discerning and relevant..

My point exactly. Originality without value is meaningless twaddle. Value can often be judged in the free market, monetarily, but also in the free market of ideas, through engagement. If no one engages, where's the value?
