Well, I guess I don’t talk too much about myself and there’s hardly more than a few photos of myself on the blog. Here’s a change… hopefully for the better…

There are many things I dislike in life, and one of the things I dislike the most, is people attempting to take me on a guilt trip, even when I have the least to feel sorry or remorseful about whatever that transpired.
What, is a guilt trip? eLook.org defines guilt trip as remorse caused by feeling responsible for some offence.
So just what the heck really happened?
Simply, an irresponsible and utterly insensitive muthafxxking sonuvabitch deliberately stomped on a group of people’s sensitivities. His act was roughly the equivalent of calling one’s religious teacher a babbler of half-truths, or shoving – without solicit – the solution in the face of someone who has worked diligently on it for a long time. He then refused to apologise to the most annoyed and vocal person of that group and even went so far actually counter-demand an apology by arguing that profanities were used on him. And as if that isn’t already bad enough, this person even proclaimed that only a ‘small minority’ were offended, as if everyone else was making a big fuss over a small matter. It is as if no apology was necessary as long as the number of people offended were too small. In fact, it sounded as if what he did was perfectly ok!
He then went on to accuse bystanders – me – of ‘adding oil to fire’ when confronted. That really took the cake! This guy has utterly no shame or any concept of right and wrong. The epitome of an ultimate asshole I have described in this blog post.
Is it a surprised that one of the aggrieved – the very same person who uttered the profanity – then took action and in a blog post to openly denounced such a person? I am in no position to say if it was right or wrong for this person to do so, but I suppose if I am eagerly anticipating something nice, and someone else ruined it, I would be upset enough to curse whoever who ruined it like a stable boy.
And then Mr Insensitive read the post – since it was publicised – and he was all fired up to retaliate. However, it didn’t happen because someone close to him attempted to stop him from escalate the matter into the equivalent of a blogosphere ‘nuclear exchange’ which almost (or had?) cost them their relationship.
But what has all these got to do with a guilt trip? In fact, was anyone taking me on a guilt trip or, well, I was the one who is actually taking someone on a guilt trip?
It annoyed me to no end because when the matter was brought up and everyone was trying to pacify the close-relation of Mr Insensitive, something was mentioned, and it sounded like I was one of the responsible party for their current predicament, and an apology is expected, along with the person who made the blog posting. It doesn’t matter that the fact is Mr Insensitive started it all and then went on to act like the total utter asshole that he is!
It is even more annoying that it is as if someone is attempting to get their equivalent of a pound of flesh by making pointed remarks whenever possible.
Go on. But don’t test my patience. I am not known to have a long fuse, and I have to say this, if your blasted relationship can’t even stand such a little tiff, I don’t know how you can consider eternity.
Who says Singaporeans aren’t creative? We just express our displeasure and deal with it in our own special way. And it’s almost unique… we express our grouches in humor. Listen to the Teochew song and you’ll know.
And for the benefit of those who don’t understand Teochew, this is the lyrics to the best of my knowledge of the language:
1. 水也加,糖也加,Gas 也起价
糖也加 (?),盐也加,米也起价
Taxi 加,Bus 也加,Choo Seh (屋租) 也加
样样加,加到我,面青青
[Chorus]
做 Coolie 做到死 工钱没加
为了钱 拼暝工 (OT) 拼到半暝 (midnight)
Sin Koo (身体)病 看 Lau-Koon (医生) 药钱也加
样样加,加到我,脸青青
[Repeat Chorus)
[Music] * background repeat non stop… Suka Suka (随便 随便) 起
Repeat 1
Repeat Chorus twice
[Music] * background repeat non stop… 面青青
The above is the top 10 posts on ping.sg in the last 24 hours. As you can see, 3 posts about the Borg Queen (aka xiasuay) topped the lists. The news of her flamming 7 other bloggers has set Blogosphere ablazed. (I hate people setting fire to forests!)
Even one of the evening Chinese tabloids reported the news yesterday on the flame war between the Borg Queen and ex-Singapore Idol contestant Maia Lee. I have no intention to further report about who she flamed and her ongoing flame war with them, but let me make my stand clear – Maia! Not because she can sing well, pretty, had a tattoo of an eagle on her back, almost got married with Sylvester Sim etc… but because * music * She’s got the Boobs! without needing Adobe Photoshop.
The ongoing flame war has induced much negative energy into Blogosphere and rinaz suggested that instead of commenting further on the matter or join in to flame the Borg Queen, we do exactly the reverse and talk about the 7 blogs that we liked. Above which, I was also tagged by Wishbone to keep it going.
So here are the 7 blogs I liked:
I am supposed to tag 7 more people, but I don’t know enough people on ping.sg well enough to tag them. So forgive me, Wishbone.
PS: Everyone knows what a Borg is right? Someone like xiasuay would definitely love to be the Borg Queen so she can get the nice body of the actress acting as the Borg Queen. Or at the very least, that of a Borg called Seven-of-Nine. * LOL *
As usual, when someone doesn’t like the message, they shoot the messenger. Just what can be expected of degenerates and self-righteous ‘wuck fits’?
One of the favourite attacks upon Al Gore, is calling him a ‘hypocrite’. And the favourite topic is always his large carbon footprint – for e.g. his Nasville mansion [20-room, eight-bathroom], big cars and private jet. There is even a breakdown on Al Gore’s energy consumption if you cared to look for it. Just use the keyword ‘Al Gore Carbon footprint’ and you will sooner or later run into those articles ad nauseum.
Then there is Live Earth… exposed as a ‘hypocrisy’ by the ‘good guys’ out there. One of the arguments is that flying all those stars and celebrities to the event and having millions watch the concert is just so very not green in itself. I also recall a particular report in which Lenoardo DiCaprio was confronted during the Oscars about his mode of ‘environmental unfriendly’ travel. You really have to love these ‘truth-seekers’ who ‘expose’ the ‘hypocrites’, don’t you? These people must be one of those who ride a bicycle to work, don’t own a car, never fly on a plane to anywhere else on this planet, don’t watch TV, never use a computer and air-conditioners, and uses a paper fan to fan themselves when they feel warm!
But wait a minute. What then happens to the message? It appears to me that there is a concerted effort to shout the message down with all these noise. Are we to ignore the message and do nothing? And do we not look further what positive effects which might come from Al Gore’s – or Live Earth’s – message? For e.g. an increase in use of hybrid cars, solar power & heating, wind turbines, more efficient and cleaner engines, lowering the use of plastics, people turning off their airconditioners etc?
I really don’t give a flying f*ck what Al Gore and the celebrity is doing to the planet as long as I am doing my part. As to the self-righteous degenerates and ‘fumb ducks’, I wonder, just what part have you done to reduce your own carbon footprint.
Nothing much except to blog and join the chorus condemning Al Gore and the rest I supposed. (And yes, I can hear you degenerates shouting – “Mine’s so small it can’t compare with Al Gore’s!” Right!)
