Alas poor Yorick, I think I stepped on him.

Hello non-existent readers!

Been a while, I know, but I haven't had a chance to really sit down and get super pissed off about anything in a while, so I was pretty zen about my environment... Up until today.

I was cruising the Y-Gallery artwork submissions and saw something that was pretty impressive. A commissioned piece. It had seven characters and a background, which tells me that it was probably a big project. Anyway, among the comments on the art, someone posted sarcastically(allegedly the commissioner himself) that it "only took 10 months".

What an asshole.

He couldn't draw his own sick fantasies, so he has to find someone else to draw them for him, and not only that but he bitches about how long it took? Dude, hint: it's not like ordering your favourite cholesterol-inducing greasy meal at the local diner. Artists have lives just like anyone else, and sometimes they can't work on their art, or it takes a while because they have other projects lined up. I know you paid, and I know you're expecting your piece eagerly, but unless there was an agreement established about when the art would be finished, you have no right to sabotage someone's comment page with a spiteful remark. That's just uncalled for.

The piece was fucking finished, it looks amazing. They did not scam you. Be THANKFUL. Someone took time out of their life to make you your miserable piece of artwork, so don't bitch and whine about how long it took. Ugh.

In gaming news, Perfect World released a new expansion =3 It looks super amazing, and I already downloaded it to try the Tideborn psychic class. Can we say glass cannon or what?! Dabbling around with it, dragging Jub back into it as well. My plans to take over the world are working, one relative at a time *evil cackle*.
