Remember to Dream

Edit: -sigh- Though I must say....that if your a douche bag in a sense where you mentally and physically abuse others then please get help. In this entry I am talking about a biased stereotype of what a douche bag could be considered to be in a more innocent sense.

"What is it about human beings that makes us so ready to worship the most undeserving of our admiration? The most empty people... the furthest from a real hero you can be without being a criminal... and we put them on the highest pedestal."

A great quote from Ethan Nicolle. Word's like those have haunted my brain for years as I pursued my dreams as a comic book artist. In his Myspace post his theme revolved around the rock and roll world and how behind their "make up" would is a hollow world that no one should desire. As disgusting and unmentionable it should be, all sources of entertainment consist of this- even comic book industries. People who sometimes seem forced into the world of spotlight become victim to themselves or their fans (by all means in no degrading way). It may even be that you may become a douche bag yourself just to find protection from becoming internally confused on who you really are because you don't want to offend anyone. You don't want to become the next douche bag. No one ever wants to be the next douche bag.

For me I think it has nothing to do with being a "douche bag" and it has nothing to do with how moral you are because moral's in itself are opinions society may have created (who would know). It's all about how some one looks at things and not one view is different then another. From my perspective and maybe only my perspective it would seem the most logical to be yourself and only yourself even if your moral views are vile to other's eyeballs. (Murdering and anything of that sense is never a good thing though, seriously people.)

Yeah I can be like "Dude that douche bag! Enclosed disgusting mind who has fall'n into the oblivion of all those that are not intelligent, he doesn't even deserve that chance to be some thing" but would that not just make me as distasteful? Doesn't that just help myself fall into the puddle of mind eating worms that I didn't want to fall into in the fist place. Just because one thinks some one is a douche bag doesn't make them one and me saying so wouldn't help them change themselves- Especially if they don't desire to change. Do you want to change? Would all that walk this earth want to change into being everyone else just because it would be the "moral" thing to do? I doubt it, and it shouldn't be that way. If that offends, then I apologize but I support individuality.

I am not saying that I don't support people who want to become better people as a whole. As a person I live everyday hoping to fix my past mistakes, above all when I invaded my personal opinions onto others for such pathetic selfish means. Heh, I mean that in a very literal way. Sometimes I come off as a very determined "asshole" and force my opinions onto friends because i thought it was the "right" thing to do. I find that much more caring people are individuals who are not like "ARGH I HATE YOU IF YOU DO THIS I'M LEAVING FOREVER!" and throw my shoes at them. But maybe go about things a more subtle way and really just sit down with people and explain.

Maybe I picked up these thoughts when I attended Deviantart.com because people would almost tare their intestines out because the "art" that shows up on the daily top favorites (ugh top favorites is such a tainted system, don't draw just to get people to love you.) The artist get bashed on for drawing Yaoi, Yuri, Naked Chubby girl art, Muscular Nude Women, "Artistic Nude" that looks like porn in many eyes, Man preg, Anthro's- or actually anything that would be considered Fan service. Many may be thinking ah yea that stuff is ridiculous and doesn't follow the traditional art medium and if that thought comes to your mind as of right now then that's fine but it's really unnecessary to go yell at the artist for drawing it and its even more idiotic to yell at them for being on the top favorites. They didn't "+ fav" their own work they only posted up what THEY love to draw and they shouldn't be shunned for it.

It's even more depressing when those artist give in, not because they have come to realization that drawing "yaoi" may not have been them but because their brain's couldn't take the pressure and soon sort circuited into saying " beep I B.E.L.I.E.V.E! beep bippity."
