There's nothing wrong with an unpopular opinion. The next time you feel like expressing one, though, stop and consider why it's unpopular before you open your mouth to eject a stream of bile. Believe whatever you want; just don't be an asshole openly, especially when it comes to how others spend their money. If you've got a problem, keep it private or at the very least civil, else you become a spectacle -- a shining, living example of how not to conduct yourself in a public forum full of artists and commissioners.

Trust me. No one needs to give you a soapbox; no one needs to tolerate your unreasonable petulance; no one needs your unwarranted, self-important criticisms. That's the whole reason I don't give my opinions around random strangers anymore unless they want it. I have my share of bad ones, but I restrain myself and rephrase myself before presenting them, because I simply don't have it in me to tear people down with them. I've been there; it's not a fun time for anyone.

So stay classy, my fuzzy friends. <3 Drama is a beautiful car crash for people to watch, not so much a fabulous experience to be in.
