[153] Protests: Desperate
Aussie_kid on July 10, 2006
I know, I'm late. Still, doesn't mean I can't have fun. And I got rid of the borders for this week's change to the template (Also moved the banner)
You know, the main problem with being a comic author with sight troubles is people give you shit about things you can't even control. I can barely see what I'm drawing half the time. Hell, it takes me four times as long as it should to read a book, since I can't have too much light.
And yet, even though my art and english teachers knew this, they still gave me shit for not having read the right chapter or my portrait not having straight enough lines. Was all I could do from poking them in the eyes, shoving my sunnies on ‘em and then yelling ’Now try it!'
Hell, my parents sometimes yell at me to get a liscence when they know legally I can't. Hell, I have other problems with me as well, which means, try as I might, I can't have a decent social life.
A botched operation means I can lift heavy things (Woo! Won the lawsuit though), I take tablets which mean I can't go out into the sun as much and I've been in and out of therapy since I was 11 after attemtping suicide
This is not me looking for pity, so I don't want comments saying ‘Oh, I’m so sorry' because you can't change it by saying something. This was all just a reason why you should lower your expectations
Until next time

8bit: I hope I never sink to that level Kevin: Read BK [Shattered Hate] to get an idea of my bullying problems as a child. Yes, that level (Don't know if kYuPoL was exagerating with that comic, but that's roughly how my life was, minus the angels and demons)

I don't have expectations. Except if the comic really is shit. When it looks like it was done by a five year old, then I say "boo!"
