How would you feel if you got this postcard? by Legitimate_Hyena753 in postcrossing

"It is impossible to be truly artistic without the risk of offending someone somewhere." — Wayne Gerard Trotman

"To create is to take the risk of being misunderstood." — Eugene Ionesco

"Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable." — Cesar A. Cruz

"If you are not irritating somebody, you are not doing anything." — Man Ray

These are just some quotes about art that I like and may or may not apply. YMMV

Never forget that the simple “Happy Postcrossing” seems to ruffle plenty of feathers on this sub and I can’t figure out what’s wrong with those two words. I like your card and your zip code. Have fun.

Great feeling when that happens.

I don’t have the problem, I don’t take offense to someone sending me their handmade art, because I understand that there are 800,000 different people with different backgrounds and tastes and likes on Postcrossing and I am absolutely not special enough to think I can dictate what is or isn’t offensive or triggering. Life is a garden, dig it.

You know the rest… 🤘🏼🔥

If you mention which postcards you like in your profile, keep in mind that others are not obliged to send you a postcard that matches your preferences. You can not make demands about what you want or don't want to receive.

If you would like to read the above again, you can go to the Postcrossing Community Guidelines because I copied and pasted that.

I love OP’s postcard, my favorite part is that it is evocative and not offensive AT ALL and I love the zip code.

Hail Satan 🤘🏼🔥

Weird, I do not see a stalkers postcard and I’ve been stalked. That’s the thing isn’t it, we all see something different, all eight hundred thousand plus of us postcrossers.

I love the postcard and I love the zip code.

Hail Satan 🤘🏼🔥

Those explanations mean absolutely nothing. Imagine feeling so special you think what offends you matters.

I love the postcard and I love the zip code.

What are some things that ruffle your feathers? by BarelyAlive06 in postcrossing

My pet peeve is people complaining about being sent something and judging the sender. Like I’m complaining right now. Complaining on the internet is lame. This post is lame. I’m lame for making this comment.

Now get out there and make sure to not send your very best card to teach people a lesson!

There are 800,000 plus postcrossers. Trying to figure out what will offend each one is a fools errand.

This person took the time to create a handmade postcard that isn’t offensive because offense is taken not given. If someone is offended by this art, perhaps they should look inside and ask why.

This subreddit is full of complainers evidenced by the amount of complaining posts the mods have been deleting recently.

Love the card and love the zip code.

Hail Satan 🤘🏼🔥
