Academia sucks
I don't know where my foulish mood is coming from but I'm certainly in one - and it centers around how much I dislike writing school (academic) papers and trying like hell to synthesize other's ideas into some quasi-meaningful mash-up called an academic paper. The only thoughts and opinions that matter are my own, and I'll be happy to talk with you about them, but beware to the professor who asks me to write a paper!
I'd much rather be in a discussion, a open forum, talk with others about my ideas, my thoughts. This is not egotistical in my opinion, it's coming into your own, it's maturity, it's leadership! Why must we prove ourselves, our ideas, only against others ideas and lit reviews and thesis or dissertations? Most of classwork these days is only a 24 degree difference from another over-used over-processed idea, that is another part of someone's else's (famous) idea.
I HAVE AN ORIGINAL IDEA!!!! MY ORIGINAL IDEA IS THE THEORY OF REALITY CREATION AT THE QUANTUM LEVEL, WHICH I CALLED SINGULATION (MY NEW WORD TOO)
I don't really want to write or talk about much else - yes, your idea is interesting and all, and it most probably does relate in some manner to my theory, and yes, it's interesting to compare and contrast the two.
I cannot seem to write school papers anymore! I'd MUCH rather get together and talk!
