What has Tohru learned today? That the people in the Avatar Talk forum are MATCHING NAZIS! My GOD! I mean, I was all trying to be polite about it, but two of them gave me "2/10 out of kindness" and I almost freaked out on them. Really! Some guy even PMed me offering help, which I found a tad offensive (it felt like he was telling me I was obviously too stupid to help myself or something else along those lines). All he said was that I needed to match more if I wanted to be rated higher. Excuse me, but I happen to like this outfit fine. I mean, it's not stellar, but I think it deserves at least a 5/10!

This says to me that the people in the AT forum are not as creative as they seem to think they are. Creativity implies, at least to me, an opening of the mind to new ideas. Simply shunning an outfit (or saying it makes you cry) because it doesn't match is stupid. Can we look at the overall form instead of just the color, or is that too much for one brain to focus on?

Beh. At least someone bothered to rate me this time.
