So wait .. we're supposed to be applauding the guys petulant ass retort to a basic truth about life. What in the seven hells of fuckdom does the woman's use of "auto-tune" have to do with her statement?? Sure, I guess it was an "Oh! Snap" moment, but essentially it was just an ad hominem. This was an absolutely TERRIBLE example of the type of men that there needs to be more of in the world. Hopefully he has never sired any offspring.
Auto-tune is a sound engineering tool used to for pitch correction, i.e. I sing off-key auto-tune can fix it and make me sound better. Many singers use auto-tune in live/in recording studios b/c they can't sing well without it.
It's ironic Demi is talking about singers working hard when she doesn't do that herself. You're astute, his dis was an ad hominem but what she said was the pot calling the kettle black.
Oh wait, you're, forget what I just said.
Trolling ?? Not in the least bit. I'm quite open with the fact that I think that the man in question is a poor example of proper manhood. When confronted with his perceived inadequecy by the very people whose opinion he was courting, the guy had
NOTHING to bring to the table except for the basic form of self defense most of us grew out of in High School. In fact this thread should maybe be called "Some men can't handle rejection". And those men should most definitely be bred out of existence.
Additionally, you can auto-tune the fuck out of whatever you want, but given that she is/was also an actress and does consistently tour I believe we can infer that she has some notion of hard work. The fact that you brought it up relates to my central point. Regardless of what someone is saying to you, or your perceived notion of their qualifications, as a man you need to act appropriately. Which is to say, your response to provocation needs to be somewhat intelligent and on point. This guy's response was most definitely not.
If you call me a troll, and I simply say you have a poor grasp of the concept, then that would be a somewhat okay response. But still sort of bitch, because I made no attempt to actually address or rebut the claim.
On the other hand, if I were to come back at you with something along the lines of "well you have a stupid name" or "you use ponctuation poorly", you would be on the side of the angels to call me a bitch. That is to say, you would have been completely justified in doing so.
