Profound issues.

There had been a time, when I used to read lot of stuff and try to make sense out of all that crap. :) Like reading a book about philosophy and try to come up with my own theory. Reading a good novel and imagining that, I am going to write one. It's like watching a movie and dreaming that, you will behave te same outside the theatre. It's stupid, right? Dressing, behaving, thinking ..based on some other sources. Basically copying/ deriving from other sources.
Ofcourse, it's very, very difficult to be original. Out of billions who existed in this world, how many can claim to have been original?

"Jack spends his days at a job he despises and his nights ransacking mail-order catalogs, desperate to give some meaning to his life all the while giving himself severe insomnia. As Tyler proclaims at a particular session of Fight Club: "We are an entire generation pumping gas - waiting tables - slaves to the white collars. Advertisement has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate, so we can buy shit we don't need." (Fincher 1999) These men, gray-collar workers are proletarians, "people who sell their productive labor for wages." (Macionis 196) In reference to stratification, gray-collar employees are higher than blue-collar employees but are still serving the capitalists above them. They can never achieve the advertised ideal because according to the social-conflict paradigm "stratification provides some people with advantages over others" thus causing an overwhelming sense of alienation due the reality of their powerlessness. (Macionis 196)"
