Huh?

Seems to me, I have been receiving quite a number of hate comments of late. Wassup with that people? First I wrote a post on 10 things I hate about Friendster. Some people gave me this:

“and who are u to say that?! people has its own choice on whatever they want to post and anytime they want to update (cute pictures, unupdated blogs)! and even if they say they’re fat or ugly but still posted their pictures.. well, it’s none of your bussiness >_”

Right, first of all, you’re not so anonymous. A check on Friendster revealed you and for the sake of your privacy, I shall not reveal your identity. Thanks for dropping by and dropping me a comment, albeit not a very nice one. Yes, people have their own choices and that is why I do not go around people’s blogs or Friendster account and start shooting them for whatever they do. The most I did was click on the ‘X’ or Back button when I reach these pages.

Yes I am aware my blog isn’t interesting as well but then again, it’s my blog and the 10 things I hate about Friendster are just merely my opinion and also to tell people what I dislike about Friendster. It’s just me. Some people might like what I dislike, after all, they say, beauty is in the beholder of the eyes. It all boils down to personal preferences, but I am sure you would have to agree to almost half the things I wrote, no? OK, if the answer was a no, then I am sorry. Then again, my point is that, it’s a personal opinion of mine, and the fact that I don’t go about condemning people in their blogs for whatever they wrote indicates my respect for whatever they do and that what I have written on my blog was just my personal opinion in general and not meant to shoot anyone specifically.

Then, I had someone leaving me a message on my chat box asking me this:

“Are you ever satisfied with ANYTHING?”

Well, the answer to this is, YES, I am satisfied with almost anything. The fact that most people cannot compromise and be content with what they have is what is making me dissatisfied. You want examples? I can already think of a few. Tell me, how is it that I am supposed to be satisfied with my work when work means dealing with a bunch of idiots on a daily basis? Tell me, how am I supposed to be satisfied when I am supposed to be happy with my life and making lots of friends when someone starts stabbing me from my back? Tell me, how am I supposed to be satisfied when I want to open a bank account and people tell me I couldn’t and I should literally die of poorness? Tell me, how am I supposed to be satisfied when I am supposed to be enjoying broadband which turns out to be more of a narrowband? Last, but not least, tell me, how am I supposed to be satisfied when someone just swerved into my lane while driving and almost caused me my life and my car?

These are just a few examples to quote for. If there wasn’t anything for me to grumble on, I wouldn’t be grumbling, would I? I am sorry if these grumbles made you felt as if I am not satisfied with anything at all. Probably you’re right, I shouldn’t be grumbling a lot because lets face it, the world is what it is and my grumble alone wouldn’t change it in years to come, let alone overnight. Then again, this is my blog and I treat it as a place where I can talk just about almost anything under the sun. When there is something exciting, I talk about it. If there are any happy occasions, I talk about it as well and of course, if there are any rants, I’ll talk about it as well. I don’t get to rant often in the public so I won’t hesitate ranting here once in a while.

I’ll stop here now as this is just a post to clarify my point of view. Before anyone of you start shooting me, I reiterate that this post was meant to generally point out my stand in the matter and was not meant as a personal attack on anyone of you out there. I apologize if anyone of you felt my posts were too harsh, but sarcasm and annoyance with stupid things and people are just in me. It’s just the way I write and express myself. Some like it and some don’t. I am who I am and that fact won’t change overnight. Read my posts with a slight sense of humour and don’t take them too seriously. Ponder on my points, if any, and if you disagree with them, leave me a comment, debate the points with me. You are most welcomed to do that. Constructive criticism is what I am looking for. All that being said, I am off for now, and remember, read with a slight sense of humour and not take things too seriously. Cheers people!
