N!S7, N!S8, CRAAAAAAAAWLING IN MY SKIIINNN

N!S7: STOP HAVING FUN GUYS. STOP HAVING FUN RIGHT NOW GOG DAMMIT!

N!S8: Someone on her Formspring asked this question, though they actually bothered phrasing it properly. In case you've been living under a rock for the past few months, Formspring (http://www.formspring.me) is a site that allows people to ask other people questions, ANONYMOUSLY EVEN! :OOOOO But yeah, here is the answer she gave for why she draws what she draws.

"It makes me kind of sad to see that other people's threshold for creepiness is much lower than mine. I just like to draw things I find interesting, unique and inspiring. In general, I don't find safe, non-creepy subject matters to be interesting because other people have explored them at length and often better than I can. It is in the relatively unexplored wilderness of off-color subject matter that I prefer to carve my niche, and to cater to those who crave the rare and unconventional.
I'm not deliberately trying to elicit a shocked response from the audience. Though I do get a rise out of a shocked audience reaction, I have yet to resort to doing that on purpose. I feel like if I try too hard to scare the audience, it will be obvious and will lose all its power.

This is funny because if you'd actually bothered to just ask her up front about it or on her Formspring, which she has supplied links to, you'd have saved yourself the trouble.

CRAAAAAAAAWLING IN MY SKIN. What it the triple fuck makes you think that people post the bad things going on in their lives in their journals to look heroic or tragic? I mean, yeah, I'm not going to deny that some people are attention whores and do that on occasion, but that isn't everyone. Maybe they post about it because writing it in their journals makes them feel better. I mean, it's their little corner of The Internet. What makes you think you have the write to tell them to stop posting there?
