so apparently i’m ……

ugly.  who knew?

i recieved an interesting comment today on my most recent “boredom begets self portraits” post.

“Your tattoos are ugly and so are you
This make sad.
Perhaps if your face wasn’t so fat and didn’t look like it was about to explode, you might look a slight bit better.
Can’t figure out why someone like you would want to draw attention to themselves by getting tattoos.
What’s funny is, the pictures of the other tattoo’d guys on here compared to your pictures. LOL.”

now, a couple of things – my initial thought was something akin to “well, i knew i wasn’t that great, but didn’t think i was that bad” then “ok, crash diet and i must bike 40 miles a day” to “who the fuck does this wanker think he/she is”

i’m pretty honest on this blog – i’m far from perfect, but i’m guessing so are most of my readers.  perfection doesn’t really interest me all that much – cause frankly, it doesn’t fucking exist.   do i have a great body?  nope.  is my face kinda round?  yup (which by the way, there is zero i can do about that – even when i was smaller – i had a round face).  i’m a big guy – even if i worked out constantly – i will always be a big guy.  it has to do with genetics.  

let me say this – it takes balls to put yourself out there for all the world to see.  it takes balls to admit your flaws.  it also takes balls to stand behind something you say.  the above wanker decided to post anonymously.  hiding behind the internet to say something that’s pretty fucking cruel.  the only thing i can see is his/her ip address.  it’s a qwest address from denver – which doesn’t mean shit.  this tool could be local and just routed through qwests denver office.  nice thing about wordpress tho’ is that it requires everyone to post an email address.  if i were a lesser man, i’d post the wanker’s address right here for all the world to see/spam*.  but i’m not that kind of person (never mind that it probably is fake). 

cb had this to say about the whole thing “…Its just some ‘hater’ out there all snipey and swooping in.  Look at it this way, your blog is big enough now  to have gotten you a ‘hatah’.”  so perhaps i should feel honored?

at the end of the day i know this to be true:

a) i’m a better man than that person will ever be.  i genuinely try to lift people up and do/say good things – the wanker obviously is just about feeling better about their pathetic life by ripping other people down.

b) what they said about my tattoos – fuck off.  my ink is better then pretty much every other guy i post on my blog. 

c) to paraphrase an old bumper sticker says “i may be fat, but i can diet – you’ll always be a fuckin’ tool”

so braycyrus@aol.com, why don’t you post a picture of yourself so we all can judge you on your flaws as well.

*ok, i guess just this once i am a lesser man.  ha!  wanker.
