bully?
i don't see how i'm being a bully, as all i did initially
was make a request. then i was attacked for it as being
"sneaky" "undemocratic" and "against freedom".
if i'm a bully then carol is a bigger one.
admittedly i "flamed on" a bit overzealously but
erroneous attacks like that chap my hide. everyone
has that one thing that you can't stand and for me
that was it. i tried to be polite by making a private request,
i was attacked for it, then bennett posted like 3 more poems
which must have been just to antagonize me.
like a "neener neener" situation. if i were in Bennetts
shoes in that situation i would have acted completely
differently. you know "do unto others" etc.
i'm an artist as well and i didn't freak out
when my freshman painting teacher called me a flake.
i didn't hurt my feelings either. it's much better
than everyone walking on egg shells when it comes
to criticizing someone elses work. in certain situations
harsh criticisms if they are "accurate" can be very beneficial.
harsh criticism could make Bennett a better artist, who knows?
