I’m getting pretty damn tired of people taking my well meaning chatter as offensive while at the same time accusing me of being offended. Here’s a thought, people… shut up, get off your high horse whatever its flavor may be, and pay attention. Cuz you make me sick.
Today for the first time I removed someone from my watch and friend list over this. I thought they were a very neat person, and I liked their 3D tutorials. Yeah sure a lot of their posts were really just ads about some product they had out, but they’re trying to make a living. They had a lot of good things to say around that, and I like to give people a chance.
My response to a question was met with “wow, this is the first time I’ve met someone who is offended at my tutorials.” All because I expressed frustration at how, when you fit an object to a figure, the cloning function in DAZ takes away shoulder mobility. The shirt’s sleeves will often times meld with the arm, making it behave like a second skin. And for whatever reason, DAZ has decided all skirts and dresses are never longer than your knees. Ever. Yeah yeah sure, I had said, add bones and other things I don’t understand. My point was: what if I don’t WANT to add bones every time? What if the product doesn’t LET me add bones? (I’ve got at least two that won’t.) What if I feel like the DAZ people could remember we also have lower legs and maybe tweak things so the sleeves don’t melt like that? Yeah I know it’s hard, but just five years ago what we’re doing now was hard too.
How is that being offended at THEIR tutorials exactly? It’s not even on the topic of THEIR tutorials.
And for anyone not on a high horse they’d see that it’s not. So to hell with them. I like their stuff, they’re very creative with how to get around the problems in DAZ, but I’m getting old. And I’m crotchety. And I don’t have time for some oversensitive jerkoff treating me poorly because they don’t know how to read or pay attention. I’m outta there.
The saddest part about events like this is the idiot in question is almost always someone who wants to fight for gay rights, against slavery, or some other very important subject. They’ve led a life being put down the man or something. They’re all about how we should understaaaand. I get enough drama being treated like an object in this tiny Southern town. And I know from real experience what it is to be sexual assaulted and bigoted against. So you know. Shut up. Take your drama ass somewhere else. You just lost me as a friend, customer, pr person, insert phrase here.
I don’t have time for you.
