If talent isn't discernible, can't it still be talent?

>>8806910
you were the joke all along

I guess at the end of the day, it was all just an Infinite Jest.

In the context of the original Hamlet quote, he isn't describing a single 'jest' of infinite capacity but rather a jester's propensity for constant jest(s)

It's an infinite sequence of jests which are each of finite duration.

It's Infinite JEST, not JESTS.

Do try to keep up, dear.

Like the symbol of infinity, the jest is not infinite because it is unending, but because it is a finite jest continuing infinitely.
I mean that shit has a last page bruh.
