  I hate word talent in almost all senses.
  Referring to a person as the 'talent' is just awful.

  The word itself always feels like a talent is just something you were born with, like a gift. When in reality there is no such thing as talent, just hard work. No one was ever born good at something, they've worked at it. Using the word talent belittles the hard work, study, motivation someone's had to become skilled at something

  • But some people never get good at something, no matter how much effort they put in.i_monk
  • I disagree completely. People ARE in fact born with talents, just like they are born with the opposite.monospaced
  • Some people are natural renderers, some can't draw for shit. Some can carry a perfect tune, some can't sing for shit.monospaced
