This doesn't mean exceptional or remarkable. If you took the median outcome from every sorting process: B-average student who ends up in vocational training and the most common kind of job has *still* been sorted into "specialness" by being "chosen" in stages for something.

It's like a superstring theory view of yourself. Your "special" self is like the unwrapped 3 dimensions. The rest is like those 7 or 8 extra curled up dimensions. Degeneracies in the possibility metaverse of you :D

I'm not exactly sure why I'm down this bunnytrail (it's related to, but not the same as, the mediocrity bunnytrail). Ordinariness is more basic. Seeking it reveals a completist attitude to the territory of being. Something like trying to perversely visit every lighthouse in US

Ordinariness is the Big Data view of yourself. It’s all in scope. Another example: we view relationships through the lens of “special” aspects. But an ordinary view of a relationship is simply “all the time spent entangled together”. Not just the highlights reel of specialness
