You know it amazes me that with a community of people from various disciplines, in different stages of life and who probably live in mostly industrialized countries that most of you are so god damn self absorbed. When you are a child and you learn to walk, talk, read, write, etc... Is this an important day for you and you parents? Hell yeah! Has it been done before over and over again, yeah it has. When you graduate from College/Grad school are you/parents/friends/girlfriend/boyfriend happy. Yeah you are, did any of you learn anything that no one else in the world didn't already know, No.
I would say that 85% of the crap that goes on our industrialized world has been done before. So many ideas has been created and lost in the time that we learned to stand upright that it is all redundant.
The last good invention was fire or porn, I am torn between the two.
