I think we're all out of gum. Now I gotta go back to spraying my mouth with whatever I can find in purses around the studio.

we're out of more than gum. We could use a few more of these around the office as well...  |

Lots of good talent going to waste here, huh people? I'm Charles and I run a well known, well run, and well respected website called Animation Nation.com www.animationnation.com/I started my site along with two colleagues (who have since moved on to other endeavors) as a means of uniting the animation community at large. It's been a fabulous, and yes, sometimes bumpy, ride - yet Animation Nation is now the premiere website for news, information and chat about animation and animation related topics. We receive over ten thousand hits a day from destinations as diverse as London, Jerusalem, Kenya, and cities all over the USA. We played an integral part in the "Save Disney" campaign, supporting Roy Disney during the dark days of the Eisner Regime. In short, we're doing some good out there. So what does that all have to do with this post? I wouldn't be doing some good in the animation community if I turned a blind eye to fellow artists that are doing some bad. I've visited this site from time to time, and frankly was never amused by it. But that's just my opinion; I don't happen to like sophomoric humor. I was relieved to see that this site lost steam about a year ago, the reason being that as an animation related website it was confusing and at most times bitter to those seeking genuine answers to their questions. However, it seems new life has been breathed into it and this site is plowing forward again with renewed vengeance. I'm asking whoever is in charge there to consider discontinuing this site. "Out of gum". That is the name of the thread I'm in right now. How does this pertain to animation? Making jokes on line about not having gum in your studio does nothing to further the progress of the animation community. But it doesn't stop there. Within two posts, the topic now segues into a disagreement between two ridiculously cliche Cajun characters. I predict these two will argue and name call until a third party posts a picture of a naked girl. How do I know this? Well, I've read several other threads and mostly all of them degenerate in this fashion. Please don't get me wrong. I'm not an Internet Nazi. I appreciate your raw energy and am a fan of the work done by your studio. But maybe this site should be just that, a work that is kept within your studio, to be enjoyed by only those who actually find it funny. Making it public is deceiving to the fans and the young wide-eyed animators of tomorrow. It is a poor reflection of our animation community as a whole. I don't want the world to see and judge us, our industry, in this way. Come on, boys. It's time to grow up. Keep creating, Charles |

Dearest Charles,
My son, thanks for spreading the good word. Our work is never done. I shall smite these heathens down with my mighty army of angels. Animation is ART! This website... pure FILTH. Your website is pure class. And it's SO well constructed. A really nice place. I hope you tithe 10% of the profits, Charlie! Animation Nation would never allow such an unabashed, shameful, degrading decorum as seen in this poor poor excuse of a website. I bet there's Homosexuals and Coloreds visiting this site every day! In the South, where everyone knows God is Good, we'd be callin' for a good old fashioned Lynching. I've got a rope, let's string these heathens up!
Your Lord and Savior,
JHC
P.S. Charles, fuck you. ;D
