Say I were financially bankrupt and the only way I could get by is by doing commissions and I make a journal about the situation. How would you respond?

Once upon a time, a small pudgy-faced youngster discovered how to use the Internet on his own for the very first time. There, he found out about two stories that would foreshadow his future. The first was that The Walt Disney Co. would be leaving the 2-D animation medium to focus on destroying all of his childhood memories by making crappy direct-to-video sequels, and the second was Warner Bros. redesigning the Looney Tunes to look like something Tim Burton would burst out in uproarious laughter at the mere sight of. And after taking sometime to look at the results, the boy knew that these were not very good ideas. In fact, they were the equivalent of every single deadly disease known to man. And it was at that point that something changed in that optimistic youth. He realized that with every great uprising there will always be ignorance and that there’s nothing we can do to “un-ignorance” the ignorance. After taking this to heart, the little boy stopped believing in magic, good wishes, and the idea of there being any good in the human race. Thus, becoming the despicable, disgusting ogre you see before you.

Hey, Malcolm, this is Evan again, so pay attention or I am going to train a horde of mutated platypus/aardvark hybrids with overwhelmingly loud sexual noises emanating from their beaks to disembowel you. Have a good day. Oh yeah, and get back to me when you can so I can catch up. LATE
