Fibonacci is a sophomoric whiny stain.
Let's see your work.
It's not that we doubt your overall critique. It's just that we doubt you come anywhere close to surpassing mediocrity yourself.
Pony up or STFU?
Yes. Thank you.

Can't help noticing that fibonacci is always on here around 8 or 9 PM Pacific time, which would be what, like 3 or 4 in the morning in London where his profile says he works?
I don't know why you guys doubt him, he's obviously of above average mental ability as he doesn't need to sleep at all.
- more like 5/6 am... because he's in NORTH AMERICAfuckinglol_prophet

He's a fucking troll. The London story is a joke.
Only a journeyman/student would make the kind of hypercritical negative statements and not have a single fucking leg to stand on.
Look at all his topics he's started. Such a fucking self-righteous bore with his arrogance.
I am sure whatever role he holds it is precarious and marginal at best.
I sincerely hope he gets cancer.
Oh and he can eat my dick too.
- You'd let a guy with cancer suck your dick?ukit

Yes I'm in Toronto until the New Year, but I don't call this frigid hell hole my home. I'm back to London come 2010.

On am internship, are you douchebag?
So sick of your posts and their failed attempt at elitism.
The only pricks who get away with such asinine behavior are the ones who actually have solid work to show themselves.
So until you have something (ANYTHING) to show the rest of us on QBN, log off your account and go stick it in your frigid hole.
Thank you.

His threads are what I invite you to read...
- One is a nonsensical rant/personal attack of a designer.
- Another is smug inquiry about whether or not he should "throw a freelancer under the bus"
- Another is his presiding over a list of best designers on QBN (again without offering up his own work)Fucking Cunt

Nah I'm in Toronto to get an office in order. I am a suit, the thing you fear so much.

You're sure not part of Siegel + Gale.
The idea that you're an executive... or even an account manager or producer is a dumb joke.
You are a trash talking poser.

Aside from the fact that you go on a message board and pretend to be someone you're not over the course of several dozen posts, you're right...he's got nothing

We're getting theoretical here, which means francoisfido is getting the popcorn ready. I'll try not to inadvertently associate a grapefruit to a dog sled.
I think postmodernism, or a lack thereof, comes into play in a major way in design, and we're only now starting to identify the effects of it. Funny how design lags behind pop culture.
Anyway, one of the postmodern architects in the world of communication was McLuhan, whom most of you probably know about, aka Mr. "The medium is the message." If you really think about that, it's pretty depressing. It seems to me what he was basically saying there is that the vehicle, the husk, is more valuable than the contents, because the populace deem it so. It took some decades for his predictions to come true, but we're seeing it lived out now in the tremendous glut of style-based design, where the presentation screams louder than the content. The problem with McLuhan's fulfilled prophecy is that it's only been fulfilled from the outside, which ironically suits his claims (or maybe the irony was part of his prophecy, I'm not sure). This is because truth is not a matter of perception; rather, perception drives opinion or paradigm. Truth is immutable and impervious to opinion or cognitive dissonance. Popularity is not a determination of truth. So I realize this might make me sound like an old Presbyterian fart, but I think the message is far, far more important than the medium will ever be.

Because you're a complete fraud.
NOT in any management role.
NOT an accomplished designer.
NOT in any position to critique ANYBODY.I recognize the tendency you have... arrogant beginner who thinks they know everything and are on the verge of conquering the world.
Lie some more. Just don't expect anybody to give a rat's ass.

I see I've missed the conversation train some miles back. This is what I get for writing a post, then coming back two hours later and actually posting it. Glad to see everyone getting along so well.
- Sorry. Your observation about McLuhan is interesting. I just don't like our resident prima donna.fuckinglol_prophet

I give a rat's ass, fib... I'm here for you, man.
