	Being annoyed that people want ego-stroking in their journals is like being annoyed that water is wet. It just is. (Reply to this)

As for the LJ comm... welcome to the internet. This is where people get away with group bullying because nobody can physically go and knock some sense into them. That comm is just like Fandom Wank, only the targets are different. Ignore them. People who are members of those sorts of communities are still struggling with schoolyard bully syndrome, and need to stomp on other people to feel better about themselves. Even if they insist otherwise - it's a subconscious thing, not conscious.

Remember kids, f_w is about subconcious bullying. *nods* Because, ya know, pointing and laughing at other people's stupidity is exactly like bullying.

	I'm surprised we don't see journals like "I dropped a spoon, goddamn I hate silverware, it's so lame" from her..because it can't get much more innate. They're using this word "innate". I do not think it means what they think it means. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	From the comments to Snapesnogger's original post: Ya see...this is why homeschool is better, you don't have to deal with stupid opinionated teachers. You don't have to deal with opinionated teachers...for art class. Riiiight. That must do wonders for your craft. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	They have home schooling for college now, too? Damn, that must be a bitch working on transferring those credits so the course actually shows up on your transcript. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I had no idea homeschooling could include Art College! Maybe I should get my parents to teach me a BA. (Reply to this)(Parent)

I kind of sympathize with Snapesnogger about the teacher thing (Though I do think she's being overly whiny about it.). I had a pretty crappy art teacher in high school, though the problem was very different. Our art teacher decided that the art class needed to be in charge of the schools web page, and there for the only thing that mattered was the school web page which put those of us who were in the class to you know, draw, paint, or were not computer savvy (I was both) were kind of in bind. a group of students tried to discus it with her on our own, but eventually we ended up taking it to the principal. Afterward we were given given our own space to work on our art while the majority of the class went to the computer labs, and were ignored by the teacher for pretty much the rest of the year. We considered it a victory.

Sure, high school art class is one thing. Very few people are going to actually be good, it doesn't matter whether or not they are, so as long as they put in a good effort and study enough to pass the written tests, who cares.

But Snapesnogger said this was her "college" art professor. Unless that means something different in Australia, I assume she's in University majoring in art. In which case, it's her teacher's responsibility to ride her like Seabiscuit (as they say). The art world is really competitive and it's not an easy place to make a career in. I'd want teachers who either busted my ass and got me to the top of my game or made me realize that I couldn't hack it and should find a different major for my own good. Coddling students at that stage is doing them a disservice.
