Sometimes, I produce music. I also have plans for a very ambitious flash project, but nothing to produce it in. I also write books, movie scripts, practice muai thai, play video games, all while still in college. It makes me feel proud of myself.

Americans...

I know, I'm one too, but that doesn't mean anything productive. We're quite insensitive, insecure, and are generally, bigots. I wish I was Canadian. Really, though, has anyone really looked at the number of Americans who are posting junk in the forums and BBS like "lolz we have never smoked that much weed before" and crap like this? And where do most of the crap-tastic flash submissions come from? You guessed it. I'm trying to draw a parallel that we think that we're automatically great at anything that we try, whether or not we've done it before. How many flash submissions do you see that have in the author comments box "dis is ma fist flash so dont rate it bad" or "plz rate 5 its my first try?" Honestly, if you have the free time to churn out crap like that, then put some work in making them something that won't make people like me want to gouge out my retinas. Not everything that you make has to be submitted to Newgrounds right away. This has been proved time and time again that people just submit stuff just so that they have a reason to be angry at someone if they write a harsh review or are not nice in the voting, so the same junk just gets recycled over and over again (FunTimeDanc eTime, anyone?), with no way to stop the flow of crap. You have friends, otherwise you'd probably spend all of your time on Myspace looking for people who'll claim to be your friends, so why not show them? Ask them for an honest opinion. Or upload it onto Youtub (I refuse to put on the last "e" ever since it became part of the Google Empire). There's no way you can go wrong there, because there's already so much crap that it won't matter. Compared to Youtub, Newgrounds is actually quite small. We will blam something that we find unsuitable (at least, I will continue to blam just about everything that crosses my radar), and at least, the ones with an IQ of more than 100, we will provide some sort of constructive criticism (unless you absolutely deserved it, like having the same picture repeat itself over and over to the same music) so that you can improve over your mistakes.
