I don't care about page views!

(..if you'll visit my page more often!)

If we all decided to abolish our pageviews and ignore popularity here at deviantart, pushing the popular artists from their pedestal and raising the under-appreciated ones to where the popular artists landed, because there wouldn't be discrimination about what to look at or read based on what's popular anymore (seeing as nobody would have pageviews, thus making everyone equal,) I'd have a good chance at getting more attention than I have now, right?

Right?

On a related note, I've turned on the "pageviews suck" option to make a desperate statement that talent does not always go hand in hand with popularity. I only hope that talent can be found without it. Which is what I was hoping to achieve with this change. (Assuming that the talent in question is mine--and being the narcissistic bastard that I am, I do.)

Mostly though, it distracts me from wishing people would read my work. But, ironically, it puts emphasis on how little comments I have that are also proof of how few people read my work. Oh well. Bitch, bitch, bitch. That's all I really do.

P.S: Is it completely perverse of me to have thought all this time that the 'lazy' mood (below) was an emoticon of one smiley face going down on another one and that it wasn't just an obese smiley face sleeping on a chair? Because I did just until now.
