Any OP devoid of original content isn't worth replying to, except to tell them it isn't worth replying to

Give me any odds of how many Wolf Webbers fall into the creative class.

Let's do something large.

Let's do something like....

"There's a 1 out of 1x10^10 chance."

That means there's a one in ten billion chance of aliens existing.

Is that not rare enough for you? Okay. Let's do 1 out of 1x10^15. That's a one in one quadrillion chance.

Based on observations from the Hubble Space Telescope, there are at least 125 billion galaxies in the universe.

It is estimated that at least ten percent of all sun-like stars have a system of planets, there are 6.25×10^18 stars with planets orbiting them in the universe.

If even a billionth of these stars have planets supporting life, there are some 6.25×10^9 (billion) life-supporting planetary systems in the universe.

6,250,000,000.

Now, what are the odds that NO ONE on the Wolf Web is a member of the creative class?

This describes me. I'm sure a large percentage of tdubbers fall into this class.

6/2/2011 4:23:06 PM

I always ended up getting waitlisted for that class.

6/2/2011 4:24:57 PM

I do poetry slams with squirrels in my spare time, you insensitive fuck.

6/2/2011 4:26:24 PM

I create some pretty spectacular turds when I poop...wonder if I qualify?

6/2/2011 4:36:07 PM

I guess I am?

6/2/2011 4:40:41 PM

DISCUSSION COMPLETE.

Actually many engineers can be considered as members of the creative class....

6/2/2011 5:22:58 PM

why don't you create some employment

I'm AstralAdvent and i approved this message.

^^I wasn't catering to the small amount of engineers who aren't so difficult with the topic, I was mocking the general attitude of TWW towards the matter, which almost always comes down to the aforementioned.

I consider myself a fairly creative person.

6/2/2011 8:36:27 PM

what does the "class" part mean?

i agree with

Quote :

"Actually many engineers can be considered as members of the creative class...."

as far as that engineers are creative

but i wouldn't put engineers in a "creative class" more like a "productive class" or "practical problem solving class"

"creative class" makes me think of pure art for the sake of art

6/2/2011 8:41:09 PM

I would consider myself to be part of this class

6/2/2011 8:42:51 PM

Yes let's "create" on TWW

Let's spend our time doing that

6/2/2011 8:43:09 PM

I feel that as a creative individual that joining the creative class would only stifle the furtherance of my creativity.

I win.

yeah that's one of the things I don't get.

6/2/2011 9:01:07 PM

Well no one that anyone here would actually consider as part of the creative class would actually admit to being any part of a "class" because it infers too much in the way of conformity and as we all know, you can't be artsy and conformist!

6/2/2011 9:01:20 PM

unique


creative

non-comformist

goth




It's important to color coordinate your darkened mood to ensure that other like-minded individuals are able to enjoy and share their identical non-comforming views.

According to the delightfully banal corporate personality test I took when I started my job, I'm a "creative".

Are we talking about an arbitrary definition of an economic class or a more broad definition of a class of personality you can have?

[Edited on June 2, 2011 at 9:24 PM. Reason : V Yeah, ENTJ/ESTJ here. I guess I would fall into the personality and economic class.]

6/2/2011 9:20:08 PM
