some people are messed up

[i_am_paper]

i don't even know why i bother.
i went on livejournal, like, once every few months.
and the one day that i did come on
there it was.
but apparently you're only allowed on
if you know everything already
no questions asked
no questions answered
there is a comment option for a reason
i thought it was like a forum
everyone thinks so highly of themselves

DAMNIT! PEOPLE ARE SO FUCKING RUDE!

what is the point of this community
if someone just gives you a cold shoulder
and tells you to go to a flickr post?
they're at LJ already
isn't that the point of this friggin community?

yeah it is a bit annoying to hear someone say
"wait, you can use expired film?"
or
"i can't use my sx-70 because they don't make film for it anymore"
but not everybody knows that!
don't you get that?!
were you born knowing photography?
NO!
help them!

just because they weren't there at the beginning
doesn't mean they should be shunned
it's like a fucked up form of racism

AHHH!
