what bothers me.....
...is that i wanted to eat croquettes but i cant order out coz they dont accept debit and i have no cash at that time.. so i ended up making my own.. lol... XD
more like a fried "smashed" potato.. XD but it was good regardless of how it looks.. it's crispy outside and melted on the inside.. yummm.... 
oyster sauce as my sauce coz i love oyster sauce.. =P
kidding aside.. what bothers me is something that's been bothering some people too.. copied/reference pics.. i reported a couple of pics too from some of the most obvious users who does this.. i sent my proofs along my reports but i havent received any reply nor a response to my report.. i really took my time and look for some coz i am sure i've seen that image on some scene in some episode of some anime.. gaah.. whatever.. here's the proof pic..
of course, the user's pic isnt 100% accurate.. it's natural that lines wiggle at some point so there might have some miscourse and whatnot.. my concern is they dont even bother to mention anything that'll clear any suspicions.. *no credit or whatsoever to the original reference* and people are tolerating it through the number of hugs and favs.. isnt that like some kind of encouragement..? we've seen some pics over and over again.. may it be from here, from deviantart, from the anime or manga itself.. who knows if they just pause, capture, edit, post.. tsk..
reference is just a reference.. akuma de reference desu yo.. it is not some free lineart for coloring or photo copying.. use a reference to create a similar idea in their own creativity.. not the similar pose and being creative with that.. true, there might be some changes made to the original, making it possible to claim it as their own, but the base belongs to someone else and they cant say it's original if it wasnt them who came up with that concept.. originality and creativity.. isnt that how it's suppose to be..? v_v"
there are a couple of times when these copied pics has more hugs/favs than some art that obviously has more effort and creativity.. for example, saiyuki's work got overhugged by *tuuuuuuut*'s copied pic, and i dont think thats fair at all... we take our time to make our own concept in our drawings.. and i believe we deserve more appreciation than those pics that are just copied..
doesnt it bother u..? v_v"
i know im probably making a big deal out of this.. but like some say, theOtaku fanart section has way too many copied pics already unlike before.. i dont know much about before but i agree with what im seeing lately.. 
another thing thats bothering me is.....
gummy bears.. i bought gummy bears but they're not gummy at all.. and they dont look like bears.. wth..?! i should've bought gummy worms instead.. at least worms are more squishy..? XD
so random blog post.. but i made my point.. i just feel bad for those people who've been victimized too by that incident.. whether it's the fried smashed potato incident, the copying incident or the gummy bears.. lol..
End
