Secret Squirrel Transmogrified
Mon, 21 May 2001, 08:31 pm*groan*
I'm sure it's not really our very own SS transmogrified, but you can't help wondering if these people aren't following his lead...
"We, the Statue Poopers, do solemnly swear to berate sub-standard forms of entertainment and burst bubbles of self-denial wherever me may find them. AND BY GOD WE WILL SEEK OUT AND DESTROY THEM"
i wonder if they have any understanding of the concept of irony?

Fri, 25 May 2001, 05:05 pmI guess this sort of mean-spiritedness and judgementalism annoys me. Not wanting to get too philisophical, I think a good deal of what is wrong with the world has to do with the need humans seem to have to cut others down to feel good about themselves.
So what if someone puts on a crap play? I agree that meaningful dialouge about it's crapness should be allowed to be entered into, but not to the point where the object seems to be just making people feel bad.
The reason I do this is for the feeling of acheivment, of a job well done. The high and the clapping and the hugs. What is to be gained by raining on this parade, even if your critismism is entirely valid and the show was utter shite. Leave me and my delusions alone. By all means express your opinion, but accept that my shite play made me feel like a million bucks, and don't try to deliberately hurt me.
Up with compassion and putting peoples feelings above being right!!! I am still learning to do tis but I think it's an extrodinarily valuable lesson.
