So a couple times I have posted poetry in chicagopoets, for feedback and stuff. I've had some nice comments, and some very helpful comments. But sometime today, somebody simply wrote "There is something about this poem I don't like". Ummm.... okay. You're entitled. I've never said I was trying to get everyone to like what I write. But is it really worth either of our time for you to be an asshole about it? Seems quite immature. Part of me wants to give him what for, but since I'm a chicken, I probably won't. Which is probably a good thing.



The DMV seems intent on giving me the mindfuck of the decade. So far I've been told three different things, and that's after I went to two different facilities and called yet a third. Now I am on the phone with the main Chicago facility, and have been on hold for about half an hour. In the spirit of Talk Like a Pirate Day, I will say aaaarrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!

is that ALL the person wrote in their comment??

if so, then how is that being an asshole? Just expressing an opinion, right??

And one random stranger's opinion isn't worth getting that upset over.

I was extraordinarily irritated (due to outside influences) when I read it, and also when I subsequently posted this. Perhaps that doesn't earn him asshole status, but I still don't understand why, if all you're going to say is "I don't like it", you'd say anything at all.
