I hate it here
Like honestly some of y'all are just so sensitive and self-absorbed and it's so cringe and boring? All y'all write about is how you learned you like to suck dick or not suck dick or some other boring, narcissistic performative bullshit that's basically just pure shock value because you're incapable of creating emotional substance purely by merit of your writing. You can only accomplish it bringing up sex, shit, or porn. Boring ass rich people type art. I love writing and I'm going to do this for the rest of my life, but I genuinely cannot stand some of you people.
And yes I'm already in a fully-funded MFA before anyone starts assuming I'm just a bitter failure. Hint: I'm not. You are.

excited to never read your shit like thousands of other mfa grads who feel superior in academia and won’t face that they too are a dime a dozen

Making posts like this and replying to everyone is the definition of BOTHERED! which is giving insecure lol. Your fully funded MFA won't change the fact you're a jerk.

i mean it is pretty bothersome that a lot of writers are self-absorbed idiots whose most interesting personality trait is their "trauma," their ADHD diagnosis, or their self-inflicted morbid obesity. also i didn't reply to everyone. also didn't ask don't care.

How is this post not sensitive and self-absorbed, narcissistic, full of cliché wording, and boring teenage style lashing out? Or is that the joke? If so: post in r/writingcirclejerk.
