CHRIST.
Fucking CHRIST, how many god DAMN times do I have to hear that fucking phrase?
Not long ago, a friend of a friend posted to FARCEBOOK (where else) about some very shitty song he wrote. "Come on, everyone, let's help (DOPEFACE) and make it GO VIRAL."
You can imagine where it went. Nowhere.
Even if you have five thousand "friends" on FARCEBOOK, do you know what it takes to go VIRAL on YouTube? A MILLION posts!
And yet, it seems that every fucking god damned day, there's some shit-brained pie-in-the-sky bit of networking like THIS:
I'm supposed to watch somebody's fucking TV commercial? Somebody's bad song? Somebody's awful animation? Why? So somebody with no talent can get "hits" and make money or be a star? It ain't happening.
This is the new paradigm, folks: the one in 50 million chance your YouTube video GOES VIRAL. This is how creative people are supposed to make a living.
Pollyanna Lives.
