My favorite artist as far as famous ones go is Salvador Dali. He wasn't particular to critics and usually responded with overwhelming narcissism. Remember kids say you are a genius long enough and eventually people just give in.

Holy crap. It makes so much sense. Dali was trying to draw realistically, and then was criticized, then was all, "SHUT UP IT'S MY STYLE!"

And I'm not the only one here who feels this way too
 

If only that was the only reason this year sucks worse then the last.

Sadly it isn't...

My first world problem is when people use "worst" instead of "worse." Every time I see it happen, I die a little. And then I kill a little

Bring it! I can take you!

NPF, new home to black on black crime.

I've seen how you handle criticism. I could break you.

Ever felt like you just can't seem to stop ticking people off? Like being quite is the only reason anyone even bothers to like you?

Man, I really need to seriously fix my personality.

No, you need to be more offensive. I swear, being offensive is an inverse bell curve. When you're not offensive people like you, when you're kind of offensive people stop liking you, but then you just get so ridiculously offensive that there's no way you can seriously be like that, demonstrating an appreciation for irony AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU AGAIN. Seriously, about two years ago I just accepted that I'm snarky and inappropriate as possible, and ran with it, and now people's mental image of me includes sunglasses and dreamworks-esque smirking.

Due to immense suspicions that I am doing drugs I have been repeatedly woken up early for various piss tests. Anyone who knew me personally would find the suspicion laughable, but I ain't laughing. This shit sucks.

Also, K-bu remember the wisdom of Cave Johnson.
