This just in; All ideas anyone has ever had has been assembled of other people's ideas!
Think about it: Our minds are completely unable to make original ideas. The only way ideas are created are by our minds taking ideas we know, pulling them apart, and bashing them together. Think of an idea. Completely original. No using any tiny bit of anyone else's ideas.
It is impossible.
But your mind isn't working against you. It's working to your advantage. Even without our mind's barrier against originality, we cannot think individually. Even if we did, we would die out. When something has been proven working, we feel the need to use it. But we might try something new that is based on what we already know.
So when you go around, saying something is unoriginal, just know this. Every idea any has ever had is built of other peoples ideas. |

Trains aren't your idea.
Towns aren't your idea.
Doors aren't your idea. |

That doesnt count.
Thats like saying Shakespeare was unoriginal because he used words. |

While everything is based off of something, people who use "original" on this forum use a much different definition that the one you described. From previous experience (And a quick Google search), "original" could mean "novel", "fresh and unusual", and "a marked departure from previous practice". In other words, it's what they do with the idea that makes it "original", not the idea itself.
That's just my two cents. |

Dude uniriginal idea can be good in some ways if they are good. We need to thrill people and go beyond the originality -If everyone's thinking the same way, then someone's not thinking. |

The reason everything has been though of is because of the planet Earths' VAST population. There are so many continually thinking that is highly unlikely that you will think of something original.

The Real Discowasp even if that name has been done before, I have never heard of it ever before I thought it up. As such, it's an original idea that my mind made. |

See, here's the thing.
THE INVENTION OF THE FAN!
Those blades of metal are unoriginal!
THE INVENTION OF THE HOUSE!
Those planks of wood are unoriginal!
THE INVENTION OF THE BOOK!
That paper is unoriginal!
It's the IDEA thats original, not the INGREDIANTS. You can't think up of a new color, or a new bunch of words and things that haven't been done before. |

So stone is unoriginal?
The first person who saw stone is the original.
He is truly the ultimate. |

Exactly. That is what this way of thinking implies. |
