    Except for poetry. When you wake up from your dreamcoffin you’ll still have your poetry skills and a few memorized poems.

      If the benchmark of success is having the skills to do something in the “real world”, everything you do with a “real world” component would be successful including Mathematics, Creative writing, language skills, critical thinking skills, etc.

        That’s a big if. And “real world” is shakey too. Yr running with a stretchy hypothetical here.

          Feel free to define why Poetry is different from my other examples, define where one “wakes from a dreamcoffin” if not the “real world”, and how your plagiarized hypothetical makes any sense within those definitions.

          I’m not the one ripping off a popular movie in an attempt to sound intelligent while ignoring a gaping hole in their idea, I am just running with your barely defined logic.
