Just when you think it's safe to go back to the journals...
The following is a Genism, but I felt it needed to go here to:
"Apparently the old saying 'If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all' has changed. Now it's 'If you can't say something nice, say it even louder and make sure everyone who doesn't agree with you know what a rotten sack of flesh they are.'
I fear for my children."
The same overly critical people who feel that their opinion is fact, and to hell with all the others who don't want to be confined to their very tiny box of thought will, hopefully, find someone just as intolerant of their views and perhaps take them down several pegs.
It would help if I had someone IRL to talk to, but... I don't.
Honestly, I just want to curl up in bed and pretend none of this is real, because it's frickin' hell.
And why did this old line of thought get revised? I went to T. Giredancer's blog, who mentioned the initial rant of uncreative garbage saying how if writers didn't do a certain line of thought, they shouldn't write. Then I went to the ML itself. While I found many people sharing a similar line of thought (If you don't like it, don't read it) said person simply continues going on and on about her very narrow minded point of view and bascially gotten to the point of snide remarks. I'm not trying to change the person's mind (I don't have that many years to fix something so obviously broken) but for the love of whatever, please, nobody want's to HEAR it.
Just... shoot me. Please. Because these types of people... the overly critical, unimaginative, intolerant sub-species of humanity... they're going to take over. And I don't... know, I won't live in a world like that.
...no more journal hopping. And I'm seriously thinking of just getting off all MLs. Nobody will miss me anyway.
