Writing the word 'shit' in the title bugs me.

Now people who don't like that word will assume I'm shitty.
I'm not shitty though.

It bugs me

when people think I'm shitty.

They're shitty, for assuming shit. Shouldn't do that assumption shit. That shit will get you nowhere except far far away from this post, which is fine, because I don't want that type here.

And no.

This is not a shit post.

The real shit post is your shit post about walking through the park with your dog. You took pictures of everything but the shit you had to pick up with a blue plastic bag. You don't need to be keeping secrets from us.

Next time, take a picture of the dog shit and prove to everyone it's not you leaving dog shit all over the parks!

It bugs me

when people leave dog shit laying around.

Do I shit on your carpet?

No, but don't be surprised if you find a big deuce sitting next to the coffee table tomorrow morning. That's karma, or whatever.

If you don't give a shit, you get a shit!

Everyone knows that!

Except for you and your half baked dog who should still be in diapers!

Freewrites like this...

They bug me!

I don't know what the hell I'm going say after this.

Maybe I should get serious because some dude last week told me, "No serious content producer would waste their time here," not once, but three times!

That shit really bugged me...

I felt like responding with about five hundred of the artworks I've produced since I showed up here, and no words. Instead I made a fool of myself trying to explain how there are and were plenty of serious content producers. He was talking to one at the time, and I could have introduced him to many of you, out there.

Dug his hole deeper. Said something in defense and to save face similar to, "No, by serious content producer I meant REAL content producer." "No real content producer would waste their time here."

He thinks there's something wrong with the place because big names don't show up. So I mentioned a big name, and he hadn't even heard of him. A Youtuber who was there from the beginning. A Youtuber who's now worth 1.7 million. Imagine what all of those original Youtubers would be today if those running the place behind the scenes treated everyone like crap, told them they're not serious, told them they're not real, and said they'd prefer to see Snoop Dogg instead.

There would be no Youtube and the billions of dollars it generates today, if those original Youtubers were told to get lost. Treat them poorly; kiss those billions goodbye — that's how this business works.

Once big names see people making a pretty penny here, ORGANICALLY, then they come, for something on the side, because they're already making millions and don't need extra work just to make a few pesos worth of cryptocurrency.

Big names

know the GAME about as good, if not better than I do.

Is the big name going to play the stadium or the little theater down the street nobody heard of?

What's the little theater down the street doing to make money? Waiting for Snoop Dogg to magically show up, or recognizing and booking talent most people haven't heard of... YET.

How well is that small venue going to do in the money department if the manager looks at the talent and says, "Nope. Never heard of you. Not good enough. Not a big name. Go away."

Where did The Beatles play first? Small venues, or stadiums?

#NewSteem

Every fucking content producer who walks in that door now deserves respect. No more of this, "You're a fucking nobody," treatment. No more of this, "The content on STEEM sucks."

I can find a million reasons to not like the stuff I don't like, but it's not hard for me to at least respect the people trying their best.

There's no such thing as an overnight success.

And there's no such thing as success when you're surrounded by a bunch of closed minded jerks who wouldn't know what true talent was even if it came up behind them and shoved their jerk heads a little further up their jerk asses.

It bugs me

when I work in a place where that stuff actually needed to be said.

Peace
