OK, if you randomly hit me up out of the blue asking "Are you looking for a designer" and I reply with "Not right now, but can you show me your portfolio?"... Don't fucking ignore me you dickweed.

You punk mofuckas ruining my 4/20 day spirits and shit...

Yeah. I have received a number of those as well over the years.

I ask them to email me, just as I do anyone who hits me up out of the blue with examples. More than half say they will, and never do. Designers are not the only one's however, just to be fair.

Definitely raises a red flag to me... a second one because spamming in the first place raised the first one.

I just smoked some weed called popcorn.
