I suck on the Internet
Just found out that two nerds on reddit think my comic sucks.

Now, after having survived bullies, psycho ex-girlfriends, crazed cats and gang bangers, what breaks through my thick skin are the words of a bunch of nerds on the Internet. It’s something I knew I’d have to face when I started posting my artwork online, and it’s the biggest killer of creativity in all forms; dealing with critics.
No matter what you do in life, what you create or what you pour your soul into, someone out there will try to take a piss on it. Mostly, I take it in stride, but I find that in this moment, I’m somewhat saddened.
However, their opinion carries the most weight with me, because they are my kin. They are like me.
I’m going to have to deal with schmucks like these as long as I write or draw, I’m aware of this. I’ve even heard from those I look up to in the industry, that this kind of crap never goes away. So, I guess, in my own way, I have arrived.
I finally have haters!
Live your m’fing life. Get your hustle on. Understand people are gonna hate you regardless. Get that out of your head, that fantasy world where people ain’t hating on you. You gotta be grateful. You need haters. WTF you complaining about. WTF do you think a haters job is? To f’ing hate. So let them do their damn job. – KATT WILLIAMS
