Most people do whatever it takes to make money, whether that's digging ditches, or being Dilbert (work in cubicles doing monotonous, meaningless work), at least the mimes try to entertain.

I guess "waste of an existence" is a little strong... It's just so far outside what I personally consider a career. But then again, I'm from the land of the Amish, we're pretty plain folk out here. And I think Chaplin and other silent movie type figures are a different category. They didn't have an alternative because of technological limits.
