OH FUCK NO.
I jump on Gaia for a sec and see someone who I offered art to's response.
"I really like those chibi looking ones but I think that headshot is super ugly derp derp"
Excuse me? I explain that those are not chibis, that I don't draw in that style, that they're just more cartoony and I ask him to explain why he thinks something I am incredibly proud of is ugly.
"It's not in anime style derp derp"
OH HELL NO.
I'm sorry that I don't draw anime because I don't like it. I'm sorry I use proper anatomy. I'M SORRY YOU COMMISSION ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE ARTISTS WHO HAPPEN TO HAVE AN ANIMU STYLE.
I hate Gaia and I hate dA for not giving me more commissions.

I'm literally crying...
Kirix finally spawned, after I'd spent two days doing nothing but camping... Past midnight realm time, which means the area is pretty much deserted. However, it seems I had the tactics all wrong.. Died a bunch of times, paid a mage to Time Warp.. Until this *beep* Horde Hunter runs in. Now, this is the first time I ever saw him there, over the time I'd been camping. Even though I can't say for sure, I bet he hadn't been even TRYING to find him apart from checking on the point once or twice a day, while I put everything into the camp. Kirix is the only one of these new rares I've managed to completely fall in love with... I won't even start to count the assholes from the Horde side I've had pestering me, killing me time and time and again, griefing with their own Kirixes out.
Long story short, my ress timer proves to be far too long and this Hunter finishes the tame. Deserved? Hardly.
Quite the way to start a birthday... Now I'm just dreading the morning, when I'm supposed to be all cheery and happy for being yet another year older, knowing that if I show any signs of being upset over a damn game, I'll once again be labeled an addict and get to hear about it for the next week, if not month.

+1 on the commission grief.
It's all about popularity, I think. People with more watchers are going to get more attention, no matter how good or bad their art is, which is going to lead to more commissions.
And for the record, you can get points for free, just not very quickly or in large amounts. I trade llama badges for them and have quite a few stockpiled, mostly so I could buy pony icons for my boyfriend and I(which i forgot to do). I still prefer real money, though.
It's infuriating and depressing being on a questionable financial standing, eating sandwiches for dinner all week and all of these people who were interested in commissioning you suddenly aren't when you need it the most.

Fricking Bulborb Larva. I HATE YOU. They eat my pikmin in one chomp ENDLESSLY and there are TONS of them and ARGHHH.
Also, Empress Bulborb, what's with suddenly being able to fling my pikmin back to your arse so I can't call them back? I had to restart because of that stupid trick. Do you know how nasty it is to lose 60 pikmin in one attack?
Yeah, that's not an important rant compared to the others on this page... xD

Well, I honestly wish I had more money for commissions. As it sits, it tends to be a special splurge kind of thing and I feel horrible because I do have art buddies.

But I prefer cash/paypal/whatever because dA's points ... I dunno, I 'm just totally side-eyeing them.

I try to tame Skarr. Yep, he spawns. Died a couple of times. Once again, another hunter steals aggro off me and tames it. I'm done. These rares are worth nothing.

I just found the perfect messenger bag on etsy.
My mom is basically throwing a fit about how because it’s handmade you can’t guarantee the quality. Bullshit. I really, really love this bag and she know I do. It’s cheaper then every single one of the bags she’s shown to me, none of which hold as much or have as many pockets. It’s cheaper because it’s made out of a durable canvas, not some stupid pleather.
This is the bag, which is absolutely perfect for me. I don’t know what her problem is. I’ve even sent a message to the maker, so as to get proof for her that it will last.
She’s seriously irritating me because I actually really want this bag.
It’s rare that I ask her for anything. Even for my birthday or for Christmas. But now, when I have something I really, truly want, something that she promised she would get me, she’s backing out.
I am so frustrated, but I will be getting this bag.

Is it really asking to much of my Boy friend to NOT put dishes in the sink, so that I have a clean sink in which to wash dishes? I am not even asking him to Clean them, just take the things out of the sink so I can do the dishes!! So now we dont even have any clean dishes, because he keeps putting the dishes in the sink, which make MY job of washing them harder because I have to take all the soaked slimmy dishes out of the sink, clean sink then fill with hot soapy water to wash the dishes properly...I just want him to NOT put them in the sink, if he does that then I WILL be able to get the dishes all caught up and the kitchen will look noce! Is that really to much to ask???
Ya know, "Meet half way" ...I am waiting for you...

Im fed up with Kirix, im going to wait for the Cinderweb Broodlings for my green spider. Up yours you damn spider >< i did it all right, i had corehound buff, 225 haste buff, 90 haste buff, and the 100% haste buff via that air vent and what do you decide to do? You decide to go out of my range. Ok, 2nd time should work. ERRRRR WRONG. You now prevent me from taming all together and im on the very tippy toe edge of the exact same rock which is where i had previously had luck casting the tame till you magmatoxin me. Then a friggin hunter waltzes right in and you happily join him after he only died once. and he didnt have all the trippy buffs that blizzard has given us for the sake of taming pets like you.

Ugh, I am so over having a fractured right elbow. Not even a week in and I'm going mad... roughly 5 more weeks in this stupid torture device known as a immobalising sling. Wish the pain killers didn't make me vomit because it's killing me.
At least my one handed typing is improving -_-

7th Deth tame stolen from me, I don't even want him anymore he holds no 'right' on my server you don't get gz as its not labled the 'Oh so you stole that from the other faction' kinda pet. Solix pfft not seen him at all or Skittles the both suit it so well. And I would wish my Guildies stopped killing the one spirit beast I miss and she will spawn during my raid tonight I know it. /sigh

Edited out because I was so upset I managed to break a rule without realizing it. Whoops. Thanks for letting me know.
Sorry, guys, but that's another thing I'm irritated about. I understand that some people have issues understand how grammar works or have problem spelling some words, but there's spell check and having absolutely no punctuation in your sentences make it barely legible. I know, I don't have a right to tell you how to type your posts, but as a Secondary English Education major this really bothers me. I'll never confront you about it, I'll almost never fix something you've written, I'll just sit there quietly in pain.
But know this, world. I notice. I notice, and it makes me much less likely to want to talk to you.
Sorry, I'm just raging. Ignore me.
(Grammar left in because it is not to do with anyone in particular, simply things I notice on every site that annoy me.)

No offense Aela but...
Rules:
Don't rant about people or situations on this forum. (If you need to do that, feel free to PM me. I can always listen to a good rant.)
Thats one of Manias rules as well... So I dont think ranting about the situation helps any.. I can understand its frustrating but best not to break a rule because of a rule broken.

Ah, you're correct. I'm just so frustrated that I don't even know what I'm doing anymore. Will be edited.
Fixed.
I'm upset that I'm so upset that I'm doing something I never do-- break rules. Dear god, let this situation be sorted out soon!
