Try Harder #haters
Solid comment on the Ev / Twitter meme...
It's scary how people these days are so demotivated by other people's success, almost demoralized by the fact that they just can't hustle hard enough, that their ideas are never good enough, that no matter what they do they can't seem to make it big and it's all enough to make them resort to trying, and I stress on the word 'trying', to deflate others around them. It's human instinct to lash out at what doesn't make you happy and while a lot of it is due to the bitterness, you have to realize that it's all just news. News, they want to sell their sites, their articles, get people reading, if there's no conspiracy to write about then they'll fabricate one out of nothing more than the idea that a creative guy such as Ev with nothing but passion and drive could really be an evil genius asshole.
I've never worked with Ev but have used products spewed out from the pit of his creative mind itself and in turn have made enough from them to realize I can only be grateful that creative individuals like Evan still maintain a passion for what they do, and keep producing awesome products.
To the lungfish of damnation writing BS about others that are constantly shaping our web and the way we interact, screw you.
