That’s really terrible reasoning.


that’s a good point


That’s like saying bananas taste good because 1000000 monkeys like them.


That’s a pretty crappy thing to say. Do you have a problem?


Your reaction is absurdly negative.


Humility is something commonly missing from the normal person. They may not know it, And they definitely didn’t see it. And they can’t create it either. But they sure have some strong opinions about it. An intense arrogance despite the vast ignorance. Now that’s common.
How hard is it to say “I don’t know”? Maybe rotting heads are quite nice.


On a totally different note, I’m an artist too.
Have you ever gotten into an art project so deeply that afterwards you’re disgusted with yourself?. At your twistedness and obsessiveness.
And after that did you maybe want to stop doing art? To just give up that mode of existence.


Well it’s a relative thing. And as twisted as it is, it’s probably theirs. Which beats the heck out of the alternative and requires a certain minimal self-awareness.


Well that’s what we always say about somebody who disagrees with us. No matter what they think or what we think. A big difference of opinion means total shit. (Unless you are the humble and patient type of course.)


I was thinking more great creator than mere reciter.


An artist is an expert at seeing reality, relatively speaking. It’s the power, and the exercise of it, that makes him an artist.


A great artist demonstrates that he sees, thinks and acts with greater clarity and finesse than the normal people. He is a man and they are mice, relatively speaking. It’s an objective superiority.


They’ve demonstrated insight, something commonly lacked.


No actually I didn’t say that.
Forget it.
I think that this conversation you’re having here is 99% with yourself.


I see your point. There are varying degrees of experience. And participating or doing can definitely lead to the greater form. But the way you’re using the terms seems arbitrary.


What’s the difference?
Do you like nylon zip-ties? I am presently quite infatuated. Pretty, durable, useful and cheap.


Ok. I meant the term in the more traditional sense. It’s a very old term, like a million years old.
What particular insect is up your orifice?
