We're NOT your fucking PARENTS.
Your nagging and whining and clueless demand for money DOES NOT IMPRESS.
Hard work, a track record, and samples of TALENT matter. In these times when people can barely afford food, and excuse illegal downloading because they can't afford 99 cents for a song, nobody's going to throw money your way to gamble on something that is stupid and amateurish and DOWNRIGHT RETARDED.
That includes the book you want to self-publish, the vanity CD you want to press up (and sell to WHO? WHERE?) or...the dumbass movie you want to make, mini-Spielberg NOT.
Case in point, the Kickstarter attempt above. Some self-important no-talent craven opportunist, gathered together a bunch of retards and their babysitters, took out a camcorder, and had them all wave and shout. What a fucking nightmare. Based on this clip, he figured people would throw $6,000 his way to make a little movie to show how friendly retards can be, and to interview them and ask them how they felt about being retards.
How retarded.
First off, there are plenty of legit, professional documentaries on Down Syndrome and the "mentally challenged."
Second, this moron, this IDIOT, had no credentials as a film maker to assure that the money wouldn't be wasted.
Third, who is monitoring him to know if he actually spent the $6,000 properly or pocketed most of it?
Fourth, this turd-brained IMBECILE didn't supply a game plan for who the fuck would want to watch this shit, or how WE would get our money back through DVD sales or a broadcast on PBS.
Fifth...this kind of nonsense belongs on YouTube where you don't have or need a budget, any camcorder is good enough along with a computer movie-making program, and quickly enough you discover nobody cares.
SAPRISTI!
What's with this pampered ME generation of panty-waisted time-wasting wackos? What the fuck do they think they're entitled to?
"Mommy, buy me a box of crayons, I want to draw something."
THAT is where it should begin and end. After you've practiced, it's up to YOU to buy the water colors and oil paints and go to fucking school and pay attention and stop looking for shortcuts. Pay your fucking dues. Exhibit your work. And stop your whining.
Leave Kickstarter so that the really deserving artists can find it! An example? Sure. Tomi Ungerer. Tomi used Kickstarter to raise funds for a documentary on his life and work. He deserved one. And he got one. Yes, Kickstarter works IF you actually have a plan, show your talent, and have gained respect by earning it, and not just saying GIMME GIMME like a retarded pig.
Like most everything else on the Internet, including YouTube, eMusic, dating sites, Facebook and the rest...what can start out as a good idea becomes a terrible swamp of stupid time-wasting shit that becomes more muddy and impossible to navigate every day. Tomi was on Kickstarter a year ago. If he tried Kickstarter now, he might not have gotten funded. Who'd find the ad? He networked a lot on Facebook and Twitter to point people to Kickstarter, but at this point who has time to "friend" and follow so many people on so many sites? Who wants to be on Facebook at all when sites like that are nefarious, full of identity theft creeps and assorted trolls and retards?
It's pathetic the number of people who ARE real artists, who DO have something to say, who end up embarrassing themselves with a Kickstarter failure, or a YouTube channel that nobody visits, or some MySpace juke box that shows how few want to listen to the music even for FREEEEEE.
What's amusing...is when an undeserving pandering retard who wants to get into the entertainment business GETS what he deserves...a resounding NO. NO to his obnoxious, self-serving and brain-warped idea of a documentary about retards. NO to his attempted shortcut over people who paid their dues and have something to offer beyond empty promises that begin with "I'd like..." or "I want..."
I just think NO isn't strong enough. Kickstarter has everyone's name and address registered. When somebody like this fails...an employee from the company should come by, and KICK ASS, and say, "Now stop gettin' retarded in here!"
