Critics are Jerks (last install)

There are a group of fat, lazy, overly-opinionated, "still-living-at-home with mommy and daddy for friggin' free wanna be somethings, but are aggressively seeking a handout for their underemployed and under dressed selves" who take it upon themselves to find something that some other has done, and then wreck it with their careless, and carefree choice of words like a drunk behind the wheel of steamroller.
These "critics" are generally overemotional douches who frequently use generic words (sucks, terrible, luke-warm, garbage...) poor grammar and spelling in broad generalizations.  Here is an example:
  • There muzic sux!
My response should be, "No, you suck!"
However, like mama always says, if you don't have anything nice to say...
The really fun thing to introduce to these losers is to have them actually attempt to accomplish the same thing and better it. 
Silence...
A very dear friend of mine harped continuously on how poor this movie was or that movie.  He also waxed on poetically about how poor some beers and wines were made.  This (pretentious gobblety-gook) got to to me.
"Star Wars sucked!  I must have seen it 20 times!"
Really?!  What sucked about it?
"Ummm.  Well, they only did it for the merchandising."
Really?!  Why don't you make one?
"What?"
A movie.  And I tell you what - when you can make a movie as loved by that many people, I will listen to your critiquing.

My friend, taking the challenge to heart, is at the top of his class in film production at the Savannah College of Art and Design.  He does not voice his opinion about how bad some movies are that Hollywood makes. 
Why?
He is too damn busy trying to make them himself.  Will he now grab my attention regarding what his form of expertise is?
Perhaps, but I hold to the idea that opinions are like bellybuttons - everyone's got one.
Another axiom to live by is "Those can - do!  Those who choose ignorance, become fat, lazy, overly-opinionated, "still-living-at-home with mommy and daddy for friggin' free wanna be somethings, but are aggressively seeking a handout for their underemployed and under dressed selves" who take it upon themselves to find something that some other has done, and then wreck it with their careless, and carefree choice of words like a drunk behind the wheel of steamroller douche-bags."
Remember this:  Just because you have the right to free speech doesn't mean you should exercise it everytime you fart.
