Pretty funny instagram popped up last week - https://www.instagram.com/illsuckit4sofubi/ Someone who doesn't like MVH, PK, Nag or Tan... cuts out most of the crowd here. Pretty small pool to pick from.. I'm guessing it's @Anti Social Andy although he would never admit it.
Funny? It's pathetic actually. It's more than likely some seriously Butt-hurt person who thinks every maker owes them something. There are plenty of them to choose from! Need a list? Really, don't assume so much. Andy and I have no beef. Plus he's pretty up forward! An anonymous IG like that is the work of a pure chickenshit coward. Mystery solved!
Idiom: Throw your toys out of the pram Idiom Definitions for 'Throw your toys out of the pram' To make an angry protest against a relatively minor problem, in the process embarrassing the protester. The analogy is with a baby who throws toys out of the pram in order to get their parent to pay attention to them. The implication in the idiom is that the protester is acting like a baby.
just looked through it and it is seemingly obvious that its a butt-hurt collector throwing a fit. imo thats okay, let them cry and whine and try to shit all over the hobby, they'll be over it sooner than later and wont be missed. not the kind of person id want to share interests with anyway
similar thing popped up a couple of years ago aimed at hip modular synth brands and their fans, every subculture gets it, imagine the shit throwing in the model railway community,sofubi has it easy...
You mistake me for someone that gives a fuck! I'm FAR too busy posting AMAZING pictures (well lit, slightly over-saturated, perfectly framed using the rule of thirds AND fibonacci's ratio . . . sometimes with a brightly coloured background and sometimes on a HIGHLY reflective surface) of my INSANE collection (ONLY complete lines including multiples of all the hottest new hard-to-get, high $$$ shit that the Chinese and Asian NOUVEAU RICHE toy mafia are moist at the loins for), accompanied by real DEEP and meaningful quotes and song lyrics from COOL people and bands no one's ever heard of all over my SUPER COVERT and underground Instagram account to BLOW PEOPLE'S MINDS and generate internet KUDOS and FAME because my life lacks any meaning and direction and it's the ONLY thing I have to substantiate my SAD and PATHETIC existence! (Sarcasm . . . the lowest form of wit!)
I feel like a dunce. I had to look up the Rule of Thirds. Totally going to use it now....Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On topic - That account has taken a more direct approach recently to trolling. Poor taste. I thought at first it was satirizing the state of things ("WANT!", #blessed, etc. etc.) lately but now it's just angry.
Probably upset that the trade-up-banking "racket" they depended on blew up in their faces with the influx of Chinese collectors. Then the "Whut did I do bro?" and playing "victim" and spreading assorted lies from maker to maker. It all comes out in the wash.
haha, when I got a comment I also thought it was Andy. I promptly blocked him just as I've done here.
Does that mean I can post that I I think yer a needy, hype-chasing fuck-nugget and you'll still be stuck in blissful ignorance completely unaware of my comment? No harm, no foul!
My Blue Goga in the BST isn't selling.... anyone have an idea of duration and quality of sucking the current market will bear for this piece? I knew it was you!
Hey, glop a bunch of paint all over it. There is an Ebay seller back east that will "Launder" it for you.
I mean, me personally, I'll suck the chrome off a trailer hitch for a goga. I don't care how many thousands more Medicom pumps out, they'll always be the hawt shit to me.
This guy obviously loves MVH but is super salty about not winning every lotto in sight. The IG went from semi-funny criticism of current hype toys to whining/lashing out due to pure butthurt.
When he left snarky comments on my stuff he didn't have anything posted, so I just blocked him and moved on. Now I looked and Jeeeeeesus Christ. Do some people need to be reminded when it comes right down to it we're just people who spend a lot of money on plastic? I guess it's just that I'm not neuro-chemically wired to understand the mentality of a troll. I got better things to spend my time on, like doing a toy show and inviting artists I love instead of just bitching about how I don't have <insert toy here> that I tried to score.
But don't you understand? They're like Pokémon, you gotta have them all! ALL THE RELEASES!!! Or it hurts your hype cred!
