I have to say that I overreact a lot. A LOT.

So, I drew that Aerith doodle last night, yes? I clearly wasn't trying, but I wanted to post something. It'll be scrapped later since it's not a finished piece. But I did it for the lulz. So the first person to come across it is That's I Fav Garbage. "Take a look at my username. A good look. If I faved your work, do you know what that means? Yes, it's garbage. Sorry, but I call them as I see them." That's from his/her journal. And farther down the page, in the comments:

TheRC: no shit sherlock, it's a scrap for a reason :]

IFAVGARBAGE: In case your interested, nothing else in your gallery is anything too special either.

((It's here that I get a little amused-irritated... Note the misuse of "your"))

TheRC: im aware of that. im on deviantart because the people here critique to help me improve. why the fuck are you even bothering?

IFAVGARBAGE: I'm a natural born critic. It's in my blood. It's what I am. It's what I do.

TheRC: "critic," "criticize," and "critique" all have the same thing in common. put that shit to good use and CRITIQUE. dont try to make people feel like shit, tell them what you think can make it better. and for christs sake, draw the line between "critic" and "douchebag."



I found out that TheRC has since deleted his entire gallery. It was sad to see that this douche had affected someone so much. So, I responded to Mr. Garbage.



(continue from "In case your interested, nothing else in your gallery is anything too special either.")

Me: If you're gonna be critical, learn to use "your" correctly. The word you're looking for is "you're" as in the contraction of "you" and "are". "In case *you are* interested..."

I'm a natural born grammar nazi. It's in my blood. It's what I am. It's what I do.

And, yes, it sounded equally retarded when you said it..

IFAVGARBAGE: I like you. You've got spunk. I'm going to watch you.

p.s. Is my grammin this post correct?



Entertaining, to be sure. I occasionally get to play with trolls like this. So, I'm playing a little game. Everyone who wants to, please visit 's favorite gallery and post on their front page. You're free to feed the troll if it amuses you, but it's not required. But ABOVE ALL, report the douche. If you're feeling particularly nice, let TheRC know that we're supporting her and other Garbaged artists.

You don't have to participate. I feel that this journal will end up on our dear Troll's watch thread and I love that he/she'll know that I'm visiting every person's page and effectively canceling his/her actions.

:sigh: I haven't gotten to play like this in quite some time, and I need a diversion from finals...
