So my cousin bro from outta town comes over and says he’s starting a new business. A virtual ad agency/something like that - an idea so blatantly stupid I had a tough time actually understanding my own language - Hindi.
Now this guy has no frikkin idea about computers (other than the few mouse clickin tutes he once paid for. Ya know, learning the basics of how to actually “operate” a computer.) leave alone multimedia and any applications of it. And this guy brags about having top class animators and designers at his disposal and getting ad projects from the top names in the world like Suzuki, Dell etc. etc. bla bla bla! So I, regarding animation and design work, ask him, “What are the tools you’re using these days?”
Answer (in a most cool, proud and seriously arsehole-ish manner): “Well, we just bought a 64 bit computer and we’re planning to use C, C++ and Java.”
I couldn’t take it!!! Literally, I started bouncing around in awe at his idiocy. ZOMG! WTF? BBQ already! (Sorry Seb, but I just had to say that!)
Not only that. He tells me, yes, that’s right, TELLS me, not asks or suggests, TELLS me to leave my little stuff behind and join him for my own good.
Yeah… Riiiiiiiiiiiiight bi0tch!
You say what I do is “little stuff” aye? I showed him a coupla works of mine and he instantly calls up his so called “partner” and they demand that I actually sketch a logo. What? Are you frikkin ****tin me? Just 5 minutes ago, I was a no-gooder. Now you want a logo and you’re willing to pay me for it too? Wow! You really MUST have an awesome 64 bit studio.
Okay so I try to bear with him and I, for God-forsaken reasons, end up asking him, “What are the specs of your studio system anyway?”
Answer: “Errrm… I don’t know. But it’s 64 bit.”
Okay. Fine. I get it. There’s the door. Leave me alone you idiot!
Bleh!
