But what if you don't see anyone worse than you? Huh? What to do when all unworthy are hiding, dooming you to the pain of self-doubt?

- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

Theres always someone worse
Like a newborn baby
Conclusion: No-one who is capable of complaint, should.
...which is utter nonsense. Complaint often brings about improvement.
Or else we should instead beat people who are complaining into a state where they are no longer capable of complaint, which seems to be a trend these days.
Newborn baby, having a self-respect crisis: and what should I do? Hmm?
Frankly, if you actually applied yourself for 10.000 hours in 1 thing. I would be amazed if you can't find people who are worse than you.
The big issue here is that 10.000 hours requires commitment a lot of people lack, THAT is often the issue. And to do something for that amount of time means you need to like doing it in some way.
Often people don't see the work others have put in and just assume it came naturally. Anything of value takes effort.
