"the most vocal critic (in the class) is always the least talented"
- observation about the "critique sessions" of art school workshops.
UGH that just dragged up some bullshit from the poetry workshop memory hole.
there was this one tit-with-ears, who somehow AL.WAYS. ended up in the same workshops as me. he had more absences than anymore, when he did show up he was always late, wearing the clothes his fat ass slept in, he almost NEVER finished his assignments, and on the rare occasion when he did turn something in, it was always like maybe 5 lines of dashed off twaddle about TEH PAIN.
of course he thought all the assigned texts were shit on his bunny slippers (Richard Siken and Dana Levin didn't meet lofty standards), and when it came time to critique the work of the students (those who actually... y'know... DID THE CUNTING WORK), that's where he was a Viking; cutting down others with needlessly snarky viciousness. one time i sincerely thought i would pop a blood vessel after he smugly stated the class that piece submitted for the class "had nothing there" ("well you are the expert in having nothing there" i screamed in a fit of road rage on the way to band practice later that night)
when the professor(s) would pull him aside and call him on his lack of energy, dearth of enthusiasm, and all-around shitbrick of a personality in general, he would get on his high horse about his "pRocEsS". personally witnessed one of these petulant meltdowns, when this pick-faced meatball got in the professor's face and shouted "THAT'S NOT WHY I WRITE!!!!"
i don't really have a capper to this other than i can still work up some raw anger over this dead-souled cartoon chud from my glorified community college workshops.
