    I will issue you a challenge: create art inspired by absolutely nothing and 100% orginal.

      Why would I agree to a challenge that I know is impossible?

      I thought the implications of my sarcastic comment about the first cave painting was that there is no 100% original or inspiration-free work of art at this point in human history. However, there is a difference between plagiarism and transformative work.

      Dante’s Inferno is based off the Bible. Does that mean Dante should have given all credit and proceeds of his sales to the Church? Jesus? God? That’s what my cave painting joke was trying to highlight.

        Dude, I’m sorry.

        I wasn’t drunk or hungover yet posted a reply to the wrong person. That was meant for the touching grass user.

        I totally agree with you.
