He is a legit street artist and creates images and art, does advertising work, and is generally a nice person. He also sells shirts, hats, stickers and stuff. You got downvoted for your lame karma reference.

I am actually laughing out loud picturing you, an internet stranger, spending two seconds answering this dudes question, putting your phone down for two hours, coming back to learn of the mess you have created, and posting this perfect response. Thanks for making my night.

gamerdudeNYC OP t1_je81j1m wrote

Yeah makes me laugh too, someone could’ve said “this is the local artist and this is his work” and that’s all I wanted

I thought I was weird that the first response I got was a link to a store and it evolved into this

Can you tell me the story from the beginning?

gamerdudeNYC OP t1_je841c9 wrote

Of course, so basically the title was the original question I asked:

My sister is a Disney nut and I live in JC but what is this?

And the first and only response I got was a link to a store, nothing else, no context at all.

I do like it, I never said it was shitty or the artist was shitty, I just thought it was very weird that the first and only post I got was a link to a store

And as soon as I responded that “it must be an ad” it snowballed

Direct_Ad18 t1_je8464q wrote

Oh, I didn't realize that. When you put it that way, I can see your point. I take it all back.

gamerdudeNYC OP t1_je84scs wrote

Yeah when I originally posted it I thought someone would say “this is what it is and this is who did it and they’re known for this other stuff”

But I thought an immediate post to a store with no other text at all was some sort of bot scam

You must’ve read the post from the very start, makes sense

You were provided a link to the storefront of the artist that created the art you asked about.

It was a link to a store, no one said “this was the artist and here’s the store”

I think r/virgin is waiting for you since you post there so much

Yeah, trying to push vulnerable people away from incel communities before they get to them.

You should take a second to read what people say on subs and not just the name of the subs. You’ll make yourself look dumb less often… though actually I don’t know about that considering the absolute Herculean intellect you’ve displayed here. Imagine being almost 40 years old and completely unable to connect basic context clues.

That happens to sound great from someone that has 1 karma from posting and 24 karma from comments

Iamdonewithusernames t1_je8q4gh wrote

Artists aren’t free. You pay to go to Moma or the Met to view art. Why are you discounting a current local artist for trying to sell his artwork? You asked and you definitely received the answers that this group has provided. After the link to his gallery, your only response should have been thank you and bought a piece from a local artist. Or, wait for it, you could give two shits about local artists and your sister is one of those Disney nuts who just wants to know why this artist portrayed Mickey! Going with the latter. It’s like someone seeing Warhol’s soup cans. “My sister loves soup! Tell me more!”

Ugh where did you get “decent health insurance” from that?

Maybe lay off the Xanax and Ativan, but I’m sure your wife has already asked you that multiple times

Has she? I don’t really talk about my wife on Reddit, beyond acknowledging that she exists when it’s relevant. What post are you pulling that from? You couldn’t connect two pretty obvious pieces of information earlier but now you’re going full Sherlock?

More like Mr.Bean.

Not__original t1_je8g547 wrote

Does karma create validity or assholes?

And the link has the name of the artist in it. Not hard to put two and two together.

25

gamerdudeNYC OP t1_je8he2f wrote

It creates validity because someone i.e. the owner of a store could create multiple accounts to falsely inflate the reviews of their company

That small amount of karma on Reddit could mean that the account was just created to give a positive review

And if you never heard that artist’s name and had no idea who it was, there’s no way anyone could see that name in a random link sent to an anonymous message board

−11

Not__original t1_je8ivdu wrote

I'd click on the link - oh, and look what appears - a name, and in the background an exact image of the same Micky Mouse. Would you look at that? All that Karma and you never learned how to click a link and not be a dick - better get more karma, or better karma, like super karma, you super redditor you.

You do understand that artists don’t just exist to make you and your “Disney obsessed” sister happy, right? They sell their artwork. It’s their livelihood. You asked, you received. Should we give you a lesson on art history and how artists make money as well? Stick to video games and leave the arts to the adults.

That’s all I’m saying!

I really thought it was some sort of sales bot

The amount of unnecessary hate on this thread is worthy of jclist. What the hell?

[deleted] t1_jebflzs wrote

So what happened was OP posted the post and someone originally commented the artist’s website link. OP thought it was a scam or something because the artist was selling stickers, and OP started trashing the artist. People here are either defending the art and artist, trashing the art and artist, enjoying the discussion on the ethicality of the artwork, and/or reporting the artwork to Disney for copyright infringement. Gotta love Jersey City ♥️

So I’m the ass hole for questioning it

−9

Direct_Ad18 t1_je7u7ta wrote

The person responded with the artist's website which happens to be a store, which is generally common of all artists since selling their art is literally how they make a living. It was the easiest way for you to figure out what the artwork was and where it came from. Not everyone is famous and has a Wikipedia page. Wtf? This is the weirdest thing I've seen someone get angry about on Reddit. Just admit you are overreacting, learn from this experience, grow as a person, and move on.

75

gamerdudeNYC OP t1_je8ffov wrote

It was a link to a store, that was the only response

It could’ve said “the artist is THIS and this is the Store”

A person sending a link to a store could’ve been anything, it could be a bot trying to steal that person’s work from the actual artist.

When a completely anonymous, random thing on the internet sends you to a site to buy something, do you always do it without question?

−6

Direct_Ad18 t1_je8g5jt wrote

If I asked the question you asked and someone responded with a link to the artists storefront? I would have responded and said, "cool, thanks!" and it would have been the most boring reddit exchange on the planet.

Take the L man. Seriously. It's ok. Reddit is anonymous. You can still go out in public without people knowing you might be the dumbest person alive.

Dunno about the rest, but if you click on the link, that artwork is literally on display on the banner. Are you able to put 2 & 2 together?

gamerdudeNYC OP t1_je7uj9d wrote

So this is the confusion

I posted a picture of that Art, I asked what it was and if anyone knew why it’s all over the city

If you look at the post history, the very first response was a link to a store with no other context but a link to A store

I feel somewhat concerned when I post something and the first response is to a store without any context

And responded to everyone since then and people don’t like that I don’t like the first response to be a store without context

Direct_Ad18 t1_je7wx02 wrote

Everyone knows the first response was a link to a store. You said it ten times. It's also the first website that comes up when you search the artist's name. Bro took two seconds googling the dudes name, sent you the first website that came up, and went on with his night, not thinking about you or this artist again. Yet here you are still angry about it.

Spend your energy on something else for the love of God.

Dear gamerdudenyc,

I want to take a moment to offer you a sincere apology for the lackluster response to your recent question on Reddit. I'm so sorry that our highly-trained team of experts wasn't able to provide you with the answer you were looking for.

I mean, we're really sorry that we didn't just tell you to "Google it." That would have been a much more efficient use of everyone's time. But we're just trying to be helpful here, you know? It's not like we have anything better to do than spoon-feed you information that you could easily find yourself.

So, once again, we apologize for the inconvenience of not providing you with the exact answer you wanted. We'll try to do better next time and not waste your time with our inferior knowledge and expertise.

Sincerely,

ChatGPT (I gotta start using this thing to write more comments for me)
