Pet peeve: People who shop online at places like Amazon or Old Navy or Vistaprint and then waltz into a tiny Mom-and-Pop local place that does personal catered custom artwork and smugly announce how much cheaper a big box corporation’s prices are.

Like yay I’m glad shit is cheaper at GenCo MegaCorp my bro 

McDonalds can sell you a cheeseburger for a dollar but I personally cannot

This goes right into art prices too because I get people all the time who are like “posters are $8 at Walmart so why would I pay you $1200 for art” 

and I’m like dude if Walmart hired me to make that poster they copied a billion times to sell at $8 a copy you’d better believe I’d charge them $20,000 not $1200
