And another thing, whats with these people that have posted 1200 posts in four months. Thats 300 posts a month divided by 30 days,
well thats an awful lot of posts. This is exactly what Im talking about. Lives in the basement, yaps on the computer all day, saying absolutely nothing to any poor slob who has the misfortune to have logged on, and now I have to bloody scroll through 4000 unread posts by these goofballs who probably dont even own a camera. As if they have time to take any pictures and now Ive wasted half a day reading these slacker posts.
Great, Ive suffered through 2 years of Azo Azo Azo up the wazoo and now weve got to hear these mutts yammering about Rodinal, Rodinal Rodinal. Christ when will it all end. These posers cant even take a half assed interesting picture of anything and they are arguing about this developer is better that that developer, and this one works best when you do this, or it works better when you do that. WHAT THE HELL DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE? The picture is going to suck anyway. Since most of them are using their bathroom as a darkroom why not just develop the stupid film in the toilet after a good long piss and be done with it.
Then we have the whiners that are always boo- hooing about digital. Digitals coming, digitals coming, run for your lives. Lets face it, in a couple of years, you poor fools are gonna be sitting on your hemorrhoid cushion, all alone in your pathetic darkrooms, developing your glass plates or the last of your hoarded film, that your had to steal from the other old bugger who hoarded his stuff and finally croaked. You probably found out where he lived and broke into his shack and made off with ten cases of half rat eaten boxes of HP5. Whew. Good for another year.
You see a bunch of analoggers together and it looks like a goth convention gone horribly wrong. Everyone white as a ghost from ten thousand boring hours in the darkroom and fingertips the color of some old hookers who chain smoked unfiltered Camels for the last 66 years.
You ever see the 8x10 crowd or the 12x40 crowd or whatever they hell they are. They all shuffle along with a stoop, because they are hopelessly old and decrepid, and have one shoulder higher than the other because theyve been packing 150 pounds of camera equipment up some stupid mountain or other, trying to pretend that theyre Grizzley Adams, or whatever the hell his name was.
And then theres this incessant zone system this and zone system that. I feel like I entered the twilight zone. Heres a clue, use your stupid light meter. Thats what its there for. Take the stupid picture. What the hell, maybe you can jazz it up in photoshop if you ever get your dumb ass down from this mountain.
And dont even get me started on these childrens photographers, this syrupy
