I'm just amused someone tried fat shaming you. Because that's the oldest insult in the book.
It's perfectly okay for you to be inspired by a background character of a show and expand their personality. I mean, my character Norman is a Muppet Whatnot and looks like he could be on the Muppet Show.Well, I remember a troll posted a comment on my Scarblog several, several years ago, saying to something to the effect of, "How do you feel about ripping off Sesame Street fatso?" Of course, I don't even know if it pertained specifically to Steve, or just the fact that I perform in the same puppetry style used on SS. Either way, it seems like ever since people out there have evidently created pages for Steve on random Wikis out there, pretty much most of the internet is well aware Steve was inspired by an AM Frazzletone Monster, yes, but nobody seems upset about it.
Yup. It is me. My YouTube link is posted in my signature, soooo...Aha, so it is you! I didn't realize until your brought up certain subjects in your posts like lack of snow in Georgia (which we discussed a while back). Glad to see you're finally onboard MC!
But yeah. It's not as if I'm attempting to rip off an established core character like Cookie Monster or Grover or somebody. Expanding on a very minor, incidental, throw-away AM monster was essentially doing what Jim encouraged his performers to do, and in fact, is how characters like Elmo, Rizzo, and others were born. Of course, as I said, that was back in the days when I was younger, more ambitious, had my head in the clouds, and was convinced I'd actually perform on SS on day. Heh.
Do it, man. That would be awesome.Honestly if I knew how to make Anything Muppet patterns, I could easily Rockin' Richard's wild caveman design and give him more of a personality.
