Well, I may be a huge, anti-charismatic cynical asshole, but I'm aware of it, and I encourage people to dig on me the same way I dig on others. I defend my cynicism and I continue to be cynical because I still feel people emphasize much more on how awesome it is to be an artist and make money doing what you love, and not enough on the grim realities that will be present whether people say it or not. People can believe in themselves and take risks all they want, it doesn't change that less than 10% of artists ever find any form of success with it with just the basic structure of how that works. If I don't be cynical, I feel I'm not being honest, and just telling people what they want to hear instead of what they need to hear.
All the same - fair is fair, a good joke is a good joke, and I totally have earned that.
