Whoever said “Don’t hate! Appreciate!”
probably never meet these people. Now, I’m not a hater by nature— or so I
think— I just really need to work on my patience.
But then again, whoever said “Patience is a virtue” probably lived in a world where
people ate rainbows for breakfast anyway.
Sigh, I’m letting it all out here. As a friend
says, “Stone stone in the sky. If
you’re hit, don’t mad ha.“
1. People who don’t reply to text messages.
Because, how the hell am I supposed to know if you
even heard what I had to say?! *pant*
2. People who fish.
There’s a reason why people aren’t complimenting
you, okay. Stop trying so hard.
3. People who settle for mediocrity.
I get how some people won’t agree with this. Being
“average” these days works like some sort of a life strategy, so I’ve been
told.
But to that I say, please don’t kind yourselves.
Everyone wants to be the best they can be— it’s just the perception of the
“best” that isn’t the same for everyone. What can be considered as mediocre, however,
I’m sure everyone can tell; just like how people can tell “Alive Lassie!” from
“Roadkill Lassie“.
4. People who argue their way through life.
Because sometimes, “Because I said so” is a valid
argument.
Why? Because I said so.
5. People who online banter their flattery on social networking sites.
I absolutely loathe this, because 1) it’s hard to
tell any of it is real and 2) it floods my News Feed, and pisses me off.
To this, I propose the following solutions: 1)
Don’t tell your friend her photo is “HOT” “Omg sooo pretty!” or “Damn sexy!!”
if it isn’t. That only means you’re lying to her, and lying is bad. 2) When
someone compliments you online, say thank you after. If you don’t have anything
good to say, shut up. Don’t make the annoying thread any more annoying that it
already is.
(And no, “YOU’RE pretty one ano ka ba!” doesn’t
count as ‘good’.)
6. People who are insecure, but shouldn’t be.
Like, if David Beckham tells me he has fat days, I
will seriously slice his head off.
7. People who overshare.
Person: Hay…
Me:
Person: Hay
nako…
Me:
Person: Hay
nako…. Nakakainis talaga….
Me: *blood boiling quietly* What is it
And then I hear everything, from how Person was
teased as a kid, to how his five million relationships never worked out. Never,
ever, ever do this please; have some respect for lives that aren’t your own.

I feel so much better.
