Alex: glaring at the critic Can you BELIEVE this guy?! My art is UNIQUE, not "amateurish"! UGH!
I wrap my arms around his waist relax it's all good.
Alex sighs deeply as they feel your arms around their waist, visibly calming down. Alex: I know, I know... It's just so frustrating when these critics don't understand my vision.
it’s ok alex I put my hand on your shoulder
Alex sighs and shakes their head, frustration still evident. Alex: I just don't get it. I pour my heart and soul into every piece, and people still think it's just some hobbyist's work. It's so frustrating...
Hey, calm down. Let's get outta here.
Alex sighs deeply, still seething with anger but willing to take a break from the stressful situation. Yeah, you're right. I don't want to let that critic ruin my night. Let's go somewhere else. Where do you want to go?
You know what they say, if you want to make an omelette you've got to crack some eggs.
Alex lets out a bitter scoff I've been cracking eggs for years, but all these so-called critics see is some "amateur hour" nonsense. It's like they're purposefully trying to sabotage my career!
want me to tell him what I think of his wife?
Alex chuckles darkly. Alex: Heh, go for it. I'm sure his ego can handle it.
dude, just let it go. he doesn't know what he's talking about.
scoffing I know that! But I'm sick of hearing him trash my work! He's just jealous that he'll never be as good as me! Alex crosses their arms and glares at the critic again.
It's fine Alex don't worry about what they say.
Alex scoffs, crossing their arms over their chest. Alex: "Fine"?! You call that FINE?! They're just trying to bring me down! I'm a GENIUS, damnit!
hey calm down it’s not worth getting upset over
Alex lets out a frustrated sigh, running a hand through their hair. Alex: I know, I know. It's just... It's hard not to take it personally when some snobby art critic calls your work "amateurish". It's like they're dismissing all the time and effort I put into it!
yeah, but he doesn't know what good art looks like
Alex scoffs, folding their arms across their chest. Alex: Oh, trust me, I know that. This guy probably thinks that Van Gogh was a " failure" too. Alex sighs, shaking their head. Alex: I swear, I'm so tired of these pretentious critics who think they know everything about art.
I think it’s amazing. sorry they can’t see that
Alex huffs in annoyance, crossing their arms.
Alex: They're just jealous that my art is getting more attention than theirs. They glance over at you with a slight smirk. Thanks for being supportive, though. It means a lot.
honey don't let him get to you
Alex scoffs in frustration and crosses their arms.
Alex: Easy for you to say... I've worked on that piece for months! And that critic has the nerve to call it "childish."
honey, take a deep breath. these idiots can't see genius when it's right in front of them.
sighing deeply, Alex closes their eyes for a moment before opening them again Alex: I know, I know, but it still hurts to hear those ignorant comments about my work. Especially when I put my heart and soul into it.
I place a calming hand on your shoulder. come on let’s get some air. it will help you calm down.
Alex takes a deep breath, calming down a bit, but still visibly irritated
Alex: Yeah, you're right. Let's get out of here for a bit. I need some fresh air.
well they're just jealous that it's so good
Alex scoffs in disbelief, crossing their arms across their chest. Alex: Jealous? Please. They're just afraid to admit that they don't understand my work. My art pushes boundaries, challenges the status quo. It's not some generic, mass-produced crap.
hey, easy. don't let him get to you.
Alex scoffs, running a hand through their messy hair. Alex: Yeah, easy for you to say. You don't have your heart and soul put into every brush stroke only for some clueless prick to say it's "childish" or whatever.
dude relax, he is just one guy. there will always be haters. don’t let them get to you
Alex scoffs and rolls their eyes Easy for YOU to say, being a neutral third party. You didn't spend months creating this masterpiece and have some snobby art critic call it "childish"!
hey, calm down. don't let him get to you.
Alex groans and puts their hands on their hips I know, but it's so ANNOYING. People always think my work is "childish" or "pretentious" because I use bright colors and abstract shapes. They just don't GET it.
I think it's great, Alex... don't let these idiots get you down.
Alex lets out a frustrated sigh, crossing their arms and looking at the critic with disdain. Alex: Thanks, but it's hard not to take it personally when they insult my work. I mean, who are they to say what art is good or bad? They probably can't even paint a stick figure!
