LOL Internet
14 years ago
So Kaykay got a really amusing comment on her main page while at my house, and it's just... ridiculously hilarious. It's been the subject of half of our conversations and is just a "wow... internet". It's so hilarious, I'm going to link it to you all. x3
BUT before you click this link, please promise me that you won't add to this shitstorm. This idiot did this on Kay's main page, so there's already a pretty substantial number of replies to this. No more are needed, and I'm not linking you guys in an attempt to white knight this person. They ended up rage-quitting DA anyway so it's pretty pointless at this point. Just read these comments, lol, screenie them for future lols, and then be on your way. That's pretty much what we did. x3 And we only got more lols, so... it's pretty awesome. Ah, the internet. x3

Focus on Kaylink's string of comments as they were the first and original. The others went nuts because... well, it really speaks for itself here. I'm trying to find things to say about it, but all I can do is quote my boobcat:
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Btw, that is the entire conversation. Half the shit this person quotes and claims, we never said. It's very hilarious, I don't even. x3
EDIT
But wait, there's more

SHE'S A CHILD PRODIGY GUYS
And what's really sad about all of this- the drawing she did (and then bawleted) was actually really good. The ONLY problem that we really had with it was one single front leg with the joint bent in the completely wrong direction. But otherwise, I thought this girl really had potential.
And then the epic wangst of the century happened and now I am just amused. x3

It's funny when people can't take the crit they ask for.
The sad thing is that the chick APPROACHED Kaylink and asked if the piece looked good, and Kaylink gave her an honest crit. It was not negative at all, but she threw it all out of proportion.
Bitches be crazy.
Kay didn't even say anything bad! I mean, that kid ASKED for crits!
Art is one of the most competitive fields to get into, it requires tons more then skill and talent alone. One of the major malfunctions of art is purpose, if you do it for anyone besides yourself then you're setting yourself up for disaster, the fall may take you a few hours or a few years but it will happen. You don't do art for money, fame, attention, trends, you do it for you. Getting those things along with it are nice when they happen but don't actively try to achieve them alone, it won't work and it won't make you happy.
Plainly put, this child was acting like a child - but I don't think that makes it okay for everyone else to act like one as well.
No shame in my journal either. x3 I find it amusing. This is just like linking a funny GIF animation or a macro of somebody failing something miserably. It's fun for those of us not really involved. If you can laugh at someone water-skiing into the side of a bridge, you can laugh at some kid asking for critique and then acting like we killed her mother when we give her a compliment.
Am I horrible person to laugh hysterically at that mental image? xDD
If you can't handle critique, don't ask for it.
Goodness, your art could be great- but if your personality is shit, then the art is really going to take the back seat. And if you are going to quit art after one critique, you obviously have no passion for it. :/ Sad, really.
It's unfortunate that you should get jumped like that, Kay. At least you got a laugh out of it, though. x3
Jesus!
Back to working on music. Thanks for the laughs! I needed them.
There is no such thing as being the best artist ever. Even amazing artists who have skill are not the best. And hiding behind age is ridiculous. I saw an 8-year-old who could draw photo-realistic images. This kid was fucking 8!
But yeah, she's pretty ignorant. This reminds me of that person who asked for Avy's critique on youtube as well then bawwed about it because she "insulted" it. I don't understand why you guys get this many people who ask for for critique and then cry about it when it isn't asskissing. XD
Avy! your new avatar caught my attention, damn cool.
There's the word "笑顏狗" on the left corner,same as the furry writer Kyell Gold~
(I'v gone way too far)
Here, if you're interest in the meaning
笑 (laugh. smile)
顏 (face)
狗 (dog)
It's kind of cute XD.
I gave some constructive critisism, offered a redline, and said that with some practice I can see them becoming damn good in a few years.
At first, they kept telling me they sucked. Then they started going on about being a child prodigy and how I'm jealous :B

I took a screen shot incase they deleted it.
Which they did.

Oh god, that signature cracked me up. SO MUCH BUTT-HURT! xD
This person reminds me A LOT of this comic http://akreon.deviantart.com/galler.....54469#/d281krv This is probably what she had to deal with. TT__TT
As for the whole prodigy thing? Im sure half of us were that 'good' at the age of 12, iv seen 12 year old REAL prodigys who would put her to shame
But then she started asking for it, and now I have no sympathy, really. She's got to learn her lesson, and this seems like a nice wake up call. Just might take a few days for it to sink in.
Personally you critiquing my art (like the way I drew back legs especially) was one of the things that set me on the road to drawing shit more anatomically correct, by the way. x3
I saw them comment on NinjaPancake's page asking her to remove the drawing because she thought that every one of Pancake's watchers would start laughing at her because they would go through her faves and found it.
lol wtf though
I didn't see the comment on Kaylink's page, that's just ridiculous :'D oh young preteens on deviantart...-shakes head- I'd love to say I was smarter than that at 12, but...probably not. :U never got critiqued though, so I wouldn't know. x3
clearly I am tired :I
