The BIG Man with his Nickels and Dimes and Halfpennies

Ever hear of the "giant goldfish?"

It seems that there are voraciously fat fish over-growing in little ponds. They are useless and inedible and ruining everything.

They are related to other similar species that are clogging up rivers. They look like this:

And they look like this:

The above is a species of LOX.

LOX thinks he's a big fish, and not even in a small pond.

For years, he's acted like being on GooTube was like being on BBC-4.

He gets, what, a thousand hits (usually less) for making faces and muttering his opinions on...PROG ROCK?

He's so impressed with himself he doesn't admit there's no shortage of forums, blogs and GooTube accounts where idiots like him have a small following and pretend that they matter.

All he knows is a few people leave "nice" comments and he can get through his spare time by upping idiot videos and reading and smirking over the comments.

It gets a bit ridiculous when these fat-faced fools get such swelled heads, they expect to be PAID for what is hardly worth looking at FREEEEEEEE.

LOX now figures he's worth more than the few dollars GooTube pays him.

He's found some idiotic website that gives people a chance to "subscribe" to his channel. What, this is "Pay Per View" like HBO charging $50 for a fight they don't want to give you free?

You have to PAY to hear LOX natter about the new King Crimson album?

You can't google it and read dozens of opinions? There aren't dozens of opinions FREE on Amazon from people who bought the thing??

It's pretty surprising that in this era of FREEEEE anyone would PAY for something this stupid, but some people do have disposable income and rather than give it to charity, they give it to a moron like LOX. What's the deal, they are PAYING to pretend LOX is a big brother? A friend?

Some sick shit is going on.

What next, "Public Access" cable morons will shift some of their content to a "PAY PER VIEW" version? "Hey everyone, not EVERY episode of my babbling bullshit is on this public access channel paid for by the government. Go HERE or HERE or HERE and PAY a DOLLAR for my better ravings. Oooh, make it a FIVERRRR!"

Gee, why hasn't Shauna thought to shift half her idiotic Taylor Swift cover versions to a PAY site? Maybe because reality will set in a bit sooner?

With the usual lack-of-logic of the bratty egotist, LOX thinks HE should be paid for his time. He even scolds his "followers" for not understanding that he's running some kind of BUSINESS. Yes, while the people he reviews should be ripped off by every Zinfart and Kickarse, HE should be paid.

Amazingly, he has a few dozen idiots willing to pay him, just like the jerks who put money in the Paypal "TIP JAR" to reward the creeps whose "hard work" is in ripping and posting copyrighted material.

How interesting to see a few people apologize for NOT supporting his worthless greedheaded bullshit. What next, LOX, should people PAY to read comments at the London Daily Fail or the Tell-a-Laugh? How about leaving a comment there saying, "If you want to read MY comment, you must pay for it at COMMENTSforaFIVER dot com!

It doesn't say much for PROGROCK fans, that they'd pay to look at somebody as ugly and stupid as LOX.

$5 a month to see his ugly face and hear his constipated voice? "And nobody's buying flowers from the flower lady..."

Do you really need to PAY to hear, see or read opinions on re-issue albums?

If you care about the ARTISTS, you can find a Farcebook page to see how fat the Swerved Air lady is getting, and ask her a question. Your favorite group has a website and/or a free fan forum somewhere.

LOX, Shauna and the others are just hobbyists, part-timers and deluded fools who either have a day job or get money from Mommy. The REAL money is made by the people RUNNING this vanity sites.

LOX and his pals were the ones to scream that the RIAA and the major record labels made the money and so it was OK to rip off the artists. "If we buy the artists' stuff they only get a little percentage, so let's STICK IT TO THE CORPORATION and get it FREEE!" That was the logic.

Meanwhile LOX and his egocentric goats chew on hay and cans and little copper coins while the owners of GooTube, Spotify, Fiverrr and the rest make the REAL money.

Guess what, LOX. Your "employer" who is giving you a lousy dollar or a fiverrrrr is making TEN TIMES that, and doesn't offer you a health plan or a pension.

Your "employer" is, as you suspected of the major labels and pay-to-play booking agents and managers, happy to squeeze you dry and when you give up, find another patsy. They are no different from the scammers who promise an artist "radio interviews" in return for paying a $1000 publicist fee, or the ones who'll "publish" your CD or book in digital form "and make it available on major websites," which doesn't guarantee anyone will find it there.

Too bad, LOX, that your "employer" (be it GooTube or Patreon) isn't going to advance you money if you need an operation. Your "employer" isn't even someone you can talk to on the phone. That's what the Internet is. It's cold storage run by ANONYMOUS.

Even if you buy expensive items or apps from any website that doesn't mean a human is behind it. Buy from a store or supermarket and you can go back and confront SOMEBODY. Buy from a website and have a problem you'll be directed to a FAQ and told "if you need more, find a forum and ask questions of people who like doing things free for charity. Leave US alone."

Yeah, charity. People like to go into forums for HP or Apple or whoever, and donate their time for that sense of superiority. "I can help you! Follow my advice and leave me a NICE thank you!" I don't need payment!"

Sassy Kunt and her friends are being perverted by this weird new world of charity, of "donate out of pity" instead of "pay for what a product is worth."

The weird twists include paying LOX for his worthless opinions and face-making, or feeling like a big-spender by helping to fund somebody on Kickstarter. Human nature IS pretty bizarre that way. Tennessee Williams knew all about "the kindness of strangers," and what else would explain Shauna being giddy because a few saps say "you are so pretty" and "you have a lovely voice," when these same people say it to dozens of others all day?

We see this shit on Farcebook all the time, as has-been musicians post some new, unsold and lousy songs to Bandcamp and quiver to get a "gee, that could be a hit!" Or a D-list actress posts a photo just to hear, "Oooh, you are as attractive as ever! Meow! Marry me! I am not worthy! Post another picture tomorrow! Meow meow meow! Woo HOO!"

Darwin and Orwell couldn't even have imagined this 21st Century, and idiots like LOX, SHAUNA and SASSY KUNT floundering around waiting for Muslims to come along and put an end to them with one swift sword swipe.
