What are you tired of people asking you?

[Kura]

Drawing related.

"Can you draw a porn version of this comic?" No.

"Can you add my character into the comic?" note: they didn't mean as a background character, they meant as a MAIN character and suggested I change the story to make their character pretty much save the day.

"Is Loki going to be in the comic????" and "When is Loki going to be in the comic???" I don't hate getting this one, it's just strangely a question that I am asked REALLY often so I'm tied of seeing it haha. I mean, of all the gods people have to choose from it's always Loki they're asking about. I blame the Marvel movies for this.

(Staying away from the 'can you draw me this for free' ones because that's a given)

Not drawing related.

"What are you?" asking about my race, I'm mixed so it's not easy to tell and for SOME FRIGGEN REASON it's REALLY DAMN IMPORTANT for people to know and I hate being asked it.

"Are you sure you're Asian? You don't look Asian. You look Native American or Indian or something." not sure wtf kind of question that is?? Why the **** would I be unsure of my ****ing race you dumb ****ing ****.

"Can you say 'about'?" hee hee hee hee All you Americans can shove this question up your asses. I swear to ****ing shit every time I get asked this question I want to break the neck of the person asking me it.

"I know your not single, but if it doesn't work are and you end up single can you tell me?" Hell to the **** no.

LMAO omg thats hilarious.

[UbePie]

"Is that Salior moon?"
When ever I draw any female....

[Silerna]

'Are you really a midget??'
Yep I am

[FlutterbyBubbles]

I never get this online (obviously) but "Can I try on your glasses"
No, no you can't try them on, I literally cannot see your face if you take them off of me, so buzz off.

As a BL comic creator...

"When are they going to have sexual intercourse?"

[UbePie]

Ironically I prefer that people ask 'what are you' rather than coming up to me speaking Spanish, because I look Hispanic but I'm actually mixed (black and white. No Hispanic heritage in there whatsoever), and I have noooo idea what they are saying to me, cause I don't speak Spanish....

[UbePie]

A lot of the replies on here i relate too, so I will just list mine.

Of course the people that want freebies. I think ever artist deals with that.

"Can you draw Minnie mouse (spongebob, ect)." No I can't because that is not the style of art that I produce. Technically I could, yes. Would it look exactly the same? No. Do I want to? No.

"Can you draw my name really pretty?" No I can't, because calligraphy and drawing aren't the same thing. I have no talent in calligraphy. I have the handwriting of a doctor, sorry.

"Can you speak German? Say something." After I reveal that I am half German, but somehow I would be unable to actually speak the language.

"You've been working on this for years, why haven't you published yet?"

Let me just take a casual glance at anxiety, college, graduating high school, getting older, social interaction, and all these other factors.

"All that stuff doesn't matter, you can do it."

Bruh.

After revealing that I am 8% German,

"Well, make sure you don't go killing any Jews." -Brother-in-Law.

Well, what the actual f$ck.

Heard it once, but should not be repeated.

Relateable! There's an old "friend" from high school that I ended up encountering 3 years later on the bus. Long story short, He saw my comics and wanted me to draw his Youtube avater for his channel (which he keeps stalling to make any content). & to draw a long-running fan-fiction Yu-gi-oh series.

Everytime I'd encounter him on the bus, he wouldn't ask me about my day or what I was up to. He didn't even say "Hi"!. He went straight to talking about how successful he was gonna be with his Youtube channel and Yu-gi-oh series. I purposely left home early to avoid him, haha.

[lil-sea-salt]

Can I read your story?

[OgonoArtFamily]

Person: "Hey, How's everything?"

Me: " I recently did -blank- and I got -blank-. I will never do that again! & you? "

Person:"Cool, um, can you do me a favor?"

I'd like people to get to the point. Don't ask me "how is everything?", if you have another motive. Sometimes even ignoring my question about them. It makes it so obvious on their true intentions for contacting me.

pfft, and another is people only contacting me for favors haha. So here's a two in one.

[dragonryuzk718]

Your icon is so cute.

"Is that Salior moon?"

I got that one while reading "Gensoumaden Saiyuki"... ^^"

Aside from that, when people see my drawings or learn about me actually drawing a manga:
"No way! You drew all of this yourself?!"
no, I hired a crew of drunk hamsters drawing it FOR me!
Add-on:
"Did you make the STORY, too?!?!"
...Look behind you! A three-headed monkey! zooms out

Srsly, the ONLY person allowed these questions is my grandma, just because drawing comics is something completely new to her and she's amazed what I can actually do with a piece of paper - but I often get these questions from people my age @_@

Another all-time-fave came from a friend (who is now not talking to me anymore XD):
"Hey, I have these two girls for tutoring and they really like this manga stuff - can't you draw them as portraits?"
On a quick side note: That was shortly before my university finals so my time was very rare
Me: Um... well, now is not... um... how much would they like to pay?
She: Pay?! It's just two headshots!
Me: Yeah, which, if I do them properly with colour, take up at least 2-4 hours per page. Time which I need for my finals. But I do need money, so...
She: Uh... I'll talk to them...?

Strangely we never spoke about it ever again... XD;

[Bones]

Me (way in the background): PAY ARTISTS FOR THEIR ART! DON'T EXPECT THEM TO JUST DRAW FOR YOU!

[Bones]

Me: "Nah, I'm good. I used up all my favor passes."

If I do you this favor, you will 9/10 screw me over in the future when I ask you for something, so nah.

[Bones]

Who's story? w>

Or was that directed at me, I can't tell anymore.

[Luminosophy]

What was his channel going to be about? The Yu-gi-oh series he needed someone else to make?
