I liken it to when you and your group of friends start saying something ironically, just to be funny, but you guys do it so often it becomes part of your lexicon.
Like, I get it. I understand why you're doing it, but you still sound like a d-bag.
soo I just looked and yah that music is really awful and I cant imagine anyone trying to do anything seriously while listening to that

It's on my list of things to try. Right after the poison blowfish that can only be prepared by specially trained chefs and which may, in fact , kill you.
I hear tell that they figured out how to make it so the blowfish don't produce the deadly poison and can be eaten safely.

Bear, do you like Godspeed you! Black Emperor or A Silver Mt. Zion ?

i was looking at this earlier! the poison is a byproduct of their diet, so if you keep their diet strict, you get non-toxic blowfish which are still tasty.

Who the hell wants to eat a non-poisonous poison blowfish though? I suspect half the appeal of it is HOLY SHIT CHECK OUT ME EATING THIS POISON BLOWFISH WHOAAAAA.
That's like trying to throw a demolition derby with bumper cars.

So your telling me youd pay money to sit at the table next to the guy eating the blowfish to see if he dies?
Mars Elliot is here. My friend in college, but arch nemesis now due to a conflict in our philosophy! I HATE YOU MARS ELLIOT, THOUGH I RESPECT YOUR ABILITIES AND TALENTS!

I'm just sayin', we haven't even tried grinding up our old people to feed to the young. You don't even know if it'll work!
In the words of a wise woman, "I wish I had a penis so I could cockslap stupid bitches."
You can probably report that and have it taken down. If it's close enough to a tracing Devart mods usually don't give a shit about backlash, and they just purge away.
I wonder what would happen if people began to give genuine criticism on deviantART...? I suppose the entire website would collapse within minutes.
EDIT: Ah, I suppose this new 'critique' feature is their solution to the hoardes of anime enthusiasts who would be shattered by someone saying their work could be better.
Bear, do you like Godspeed you! Black Emperor or A Silver Mt. Zion ?
We may have to talk if you don't.
Yes, but that's a lot different.
Actually, A Silver Mt. Zion doesn't really impress me as much as Godspeed!, but I haven't heard either of them in quite awhile, so maybe my opinion's changed my now.
deviantart does have a real crit thing, that i use pretty frequently and get really good crits from
there are a lot of shitty artists on there
but there are some good ones
stephen silver posts there and responds when you ask him questions
same with bobby chiu
sean gallagher posts there (cheeks...)
i have spoken to countless numbers of guys who work for dc or marvel
the guy who created the show flapjack posts there and is super nice to talk to
gabe has an account but low and behold, does not respond to any comments
becky cloonan is on DA...
there are a lot of fantastic artists on DA.
I have gathered a big enough friend's list on there that I literally never see the shitty stuff anymore, because I simply browse through my friends' favorites to find new good work
it's a good system i have.
I don't understand the hate on for DA. It is the single biggest networking site for artists.
I have made contacts on there that would be impossible to make otherwise.
You wanna know how to do networking?
DA is where valve found me. When discussing my work, they always reference the DA profile, not beavotron.com
Same problem on Renderosity but with "Poser" figures. There's one girl on there who actually has a default, copy/paste critique (wow, great, visit my gallery at...)
well i owe it a chunk of my career, so okay!
I've been on that site for 6 years now between my old account and current account and I have had so far 0 complaints about the service.
It introduces me to artists who are new, up and comers, and seasoned pros alike.
and people watch it is the thing
People looking to hire artists search through the place. They know that there's a lot of crap there, everyone does, it's old news.
But they also know it's the single largest art gallery online, so of course there's going to be shit, but there's more good artists on there than any of the other online galleries combined.
i say this as though there are other online art galleries that are even worth the time.
behance was the closest thing i could find to being a great networking alternative, but no one goes there.
because there's DA, there's no need for behance.
it's like denying that facebook is the ultimate social networking site.
it is, it doesn't matter that hi-5 exists or that x-networking site has some cool new features.
no one cares, because there's facebook.
I'm not hating on the website, just the less reputable parts of its community.
But yeah. there's some damn good art there if you put up with that though. I generally try to find one image that I like on dA a day and add it to my favourites (more often than not from the daily deviations). As a result, I've built up a pretty big collection of inspiration, all neatly categorised in to 'creatures', 'environments' etc...

I've already donated my body parts to medical colleges. A friend of mine signed up to have her parts coated in plastic resin and used as models at med schools. However, if the grinding up for food option becomes available before I die, I will void all previous contracts and sign up for that.

see but this is the part i don't understand, what is it that you're "putting up with?"
when i go to DA, I maybe once in a blue moon chance across some awful naruto fanart with football eyes. it's usually because I like to click on the profiles of people who add me to their friends list just to say hi and thanks.
in my experience, they're nice people, looking to learn, they ask questions, i answer them.
but you can avoid it entirely if you just go to the profiles of the good artists you've found, scroll down, click "favorites" and all of a sudden a world of incredible artists opens up to you

Just put on some Stravinsky or Varèse, yeah that's the ticket
But I like late zappa too so I can understand if that's not everyone's bag

Sure.
Sometimes I just go down to Carl's Jr. and just cheer fat people on for much the same reason.

loom are you eating blowfish tomorrow
I am so glad you took my advice to post here.
That person is truly an inspiration.

By the way, when you're feeling like shit, guitar helps.

edit: wait is it possible to be a hemaphrodite
Euro-zone? Is that anything like the erogenous zone? I mean, I guess, as long as you think it's a good idea to embrace that...
