As if being busy validates and erases all responsibility in being committed to a job or a deadline. This phrase has become popular and is so lame at the same time. Successful people find time to get things done.

I totally feel you. People use the excuse of busy when it is really just an admission for their poor time management.

Also, when a fan says that I have “a natural talent to play music”.

I have similar issues when I tell people what I do and they say, “Isn’t it amazing what computers can do these days?” As if it wasn’t the user that made it happen.

And, thanks for compliment on my blog and monkey :)

Also, when a fan says that I have “a natural talent to play music”. What the fuck! Like I crawled out of the womb and started playing funky music before I could walk or talk. This same attitude is played out when someone says they have no musical talent- they have never tried, or if they have, they quit before trying hard. It takes a lot of work to be good at anything- and sometimes it takes people longer than others.
(BTW, your blog looks so fuckin’ pimp. I like the picture of the monkey… )
