Yeah, about that... how about a video of the bear avatar, but here's the catch, the video has NO sound, or NO music whatsoever... ha!, can you imagine how embarassing and bad would that be? hahaha! haha! ha... ha... ha... wait:
Goddammit Dobson!, oh well, at least he knows how to make and keep a webpage, right?, I mean, if you don't know how to do it, it's better to leave it be... right?...

I'm confused, is he concerned that people would make fun of his voice. Or his taste in music? Because that makes no sense whatsoever. Also nice to see the floating eyebrows are back. And that his coloring and shading still haven't changed an iota.

I always thought that kind of quote was a white lie to make young people feel better about not knowing what they wanted to do with their life (Normally said during highschool when you're deciding what you want to study/thinking about your future).
But I guess if you should do what you love then everyone who enjoys critizing Dobby should keep it up!

Well, I guess there's people around, that do not know what they want to do with their lives till they reach their mid thirties. Some might even figure it out later.
But still they do *something* with their lives. They might not have a goal, but they still do something they enjoy. Even though it might take a while, they carve out their future with dedication and hard work. These people 'travel' a long way until they finally find what they were looking for... Dobson on the other hand sees the last few steps of said journey, blocks out everything else, watches the other person be successful and finally finding their place in life - and then sit back, play vidya and wait for his turn. Cause this is totally something that will seek out you.
And that's pretty much it. Dobson thinks he's just waiting till it's "his time to shine" or something. Till he either picks up something that will make him famous/successful or till somone picks up him and makes him have success. He's already spend a large chunk of his life waiting for this 'opportunity' (that has to be handed on a silver platter no less), he's going to waste even more time, growing ever more impatient cause it's the universe's fault for not caving in and finally offering Dobson his due chance to greatness. It was the same with his art, it was the same with jobs at Disney, now it's his overall life that gets the "Just you wait, eventually I'll be the one laughing"-treatment.
So yeah, you're kinda right, it's a white lie losers and underachievers tell each other to calm themselves. They tell themselves "my life just hasn't yet started", they will "wake up" or "chance will show itself"... but meanwhile, it's ok to play Splatoon and whine on Twitter.
At the same time, aside from being a white lie to some people, it's stories about how success can be achieved through hard work.
Be that as it may, something I read on Dobslobs little website concerning the now infamous Quiet figurine:
I'm still blown away by the fact Dobbles can't fathom that Kojima isn't handproducing these Quiet figurines with his own hands.A fucking idiot dijo:
But there's a lot more to this than his already well-known whining about the squeezable boobs (literally who cares besides self-proclaimed defenders of feminism anyway?). Like, Quiet is said to have had a traumatic past, so Dobson equates that with 'potentially sexually assaulted'. Cause, y'know, that's the only traumatic thing that could ever happen to a woman, right? Also I wonder why her being a mute makes this more of an objectification - someone might point out how ableist that is and see him choke on his own words? Who am I kidding, even if a mute person would call him out, he'd just write condescending, backhanded replies why he's justified to ignore that opinion.
Also, I'd like to know why said figurine should be considered
I can see why someone would think squeezable boobs on a figurine are silly, but then again, there's a male figurine with a squeezable ass, so this whole outrage is either meticulously manifactured or ignorance born out of the incompetence to do 5 seconds of research.
Now, if only the figurine was made of rubber and had a tiny bike-pump-valve . . .
Also, in my tiny, somewhat autistic fantasyland called the possible future, it will turn out Quiet is a MtF transvestite and Kojima will comment on this with a tweet going "Representation matters".

Sorry, I seem to be really fond of posting walls of text from time to time...

Suppose it did, though. Suppose he suddenly got an opening and had his opportunity to show his talent to someone who could give him his dream job.
And then the guy says "Let's see your portfolio."
And it's a bunch of pictures of a smug looking blue bear with a scrotum on its forehead.

And when they told him that wasn't what they were looking for, he'd say that no sane person would do anything other than praise an artist they liked.
This is the thing with Dobson, we've had at least six major and countless minor variations on why "Nobody can criticise me for my art". He wants to think that he's a man of principle simply following his moral code where it takes him, but when he keeps changing principles but getting to the same place with them, e.g. immunity from artistic criticism, it's pretty clear that his logical reasoning works backwards from not wanting to be criticised, not forward from his deep commitment to artistic respect or online etiquette or creative subjectivity or whatever half-arsed philosophy of life he's using to try and turn the internet into a hugbox this week.

So I guess if I dared to criticize Jim Davis of Garfield for continuing a lame recycled plot and jokes strip since whenever Garfield stopped being entertaining, he would whoop my ass for daring to give him criticism according to Cockson's insane troll logic?
It doesn't matter if you are Walt friggin Disney, nobody's work however great it may be is immune from any sort of criticism.

Jim Davis would be too busy rolling around in his vault full of his net worth of $800 million like Scrooge McDuck to care that he is an atrocious hack who writes a horrible, ghastly, vastly profitable comic strip.

At the risk of being lynched, I never thought Dobson's cartoon art was that bad.
It may not be up to the highest Disney standards, but truth be told, a lot of comic strips with even lower art and writing quality get published in newspapers and reap their creators money all the time. Which I guess makes his self-pitying attitude all the less understandable. Even if he didn't bother with improvement, he'd easily find his niche making comics or political cartoons for some publication out there. What's his problem?

It's 99.9% his smug attitude and pandering that makes people rip apart his artwork. That and his comics aren't funny or even interesting at all.

Does anyone else find his wacky cartoon facial expressions to be way more annoying than funny or is it just me?

I agree his art is pretty decent especially if you compare him to webcomic artists in general but the thing is his art used to better when he was in college and Dobby has managed to get worse even though he hasn't given up the dream of working in the animation industry so it's pretty frustrating seeing him sabotage his life out of laziness.
Also now he's gotten even lazier and expects fans to fund his life through Patreon which might be more reasonable if he had a regular webcomic and didn't procrastinate all day on Twitter.
