For a forum full of abstract, creative thinkers I'm surprised at how many single minded, judgmental, projectionist responses this question has generated. You all are commenting as if I'm the one in prison and it's offensive that you're criticizing my actions regarding how I interact with a friend. It's cool to have a Chick of the day thread, and FMT with stolen music, and ask how to get free fonts, and posts about pot but the second someone actually posts a “real world” question regarding some heavy shit most of you get your panties in a bunch, perhaps it's a class issue, perhaps it's a white collar crowd, but overall the responses have been immature and fucking pathetic.
Jimbo, do you REALLY think he's the guy who waved a gun at you, REALLY DUDE?!?! Are you that biased and prejudice to think that one guy who sells a couple of guns in the US represents ALL people who have murdered, killed, and robbed? Really, what a fucking simpleton. Isn't it surprising that if you get caught with a certain amount of weed it's a felony - a felony for a FUCKING PLANT! There's a designer on here who branded an identity for a Detroit non-profit for underprivileged kids and he was criticizing my friend as a fuck up and agreed to anothers comments supporting cyanide – what a pussy sell out. Most of you who responded negatively would jump at the chance to redesign a website for a non-profit involved with people from “the other side of the tracks” for a dollar while simultaneously judging their actions as if they should be thrown in the gas chamber. Tisk, tisk.
I'm the idiot for thinking that maybe this forum could present some ideas for me to help out an artist/designer friend. For those who didn't post I applaud you, you move on without offering an opinion because who the fuck cares, it's one dude, he's not a BP executive or anything. To those who gave some constructive ideas, hell yeah, thanks for sticking to the project brief and staying on track – true professionals. But to those who lashed out with hate and prejudice, shame on you. What's the tag line of this website, it's “For a better tomorrow.”
