The Annoyance

Someday I just wish I could
go on a killing rampage.

 

Annoyance is something that
can be closely defined as that little itch in a place you can’t reach to
scratch. It sucks the life force out of you, making yourself the subject to
more hate and in worse cases, temperamental senses heighten to a level
incomprehensible to normal human being. Of course normal here being the average
Joe and Jane you often see wandering around your local shopping mall and
grocery store, but in some definitions, normal is just as good as any basket
case from the not so neighbor friendly loony bin.

 

Before I reach to the
juicier subject, bear in mind that I am aware of my own shortfalls. I am a jerk
to people (all the time), unfriendly, skeptical, an outspoken, temperamental
candidate and I just never listen. These are my flaws; my faults, and I live by
it, trying to make the best out of it and resemble very little percentage of it
to the masses. In short I’ll be a jerk to jerks and be nice to those who are
nice.

 

With all that been said,
let’s move on to the general annoyance that has also been agreed by some of my
friends, but among all of them, I’m one of the only few (very few-extremely
very few: I have no idea how to bring the number even lower with words) who
“has the balls” to write and publish about it. Maybe the fact that not so many
people read my blogs could be the reason some of you may have something to say
about my bravery (which will be another point of discussion later on), but hey,
just because I don’t get reviews for my blogs doesn’t mean that people don’t
read it. Some just choose to ignore. One day I will be famous and then shit
will start to hit the spinning fan. Let’s hope that the fan is on the highest
speed and the shit is fresh.

 

  1. I am an expert of so many things!

The
major annoyance is not of the things the person knows, but how they boast about
it every now and then, as if they are the only person in the entire planet
having access of that knowledge and all around them should worship their
statue. It becomes a major annoyance when it’s something that is very common,
like the ability to bake a cake, play guitar, write HTML codes and so on. One
could not imagine the reaction if these people possess skills that are limited
to certain chosen ones, given to the fact that they are a major show-off with
skills that are known by so many. I’m not saying these skills are not
exceptional, but unless you have achieved something that propels you to the
status as high as where Bill Gates or Jackie Chan are then there’s no reason
for you to openly boast about your mighty back flips and that
not-so-exceptional coding procedure you have written oh-so-many times. The
opening lines of “back in 1804 I have gone around the entire 42 states and
kissed everybody’s asses” or “I have been floor licking since the birth of
computers and know everything about floor licking, so in my opinion…” can be a
pain in the ass when you see them once too many.

 

  1. Same joke, every day

Jokes
are great. I love jokes. Sometimes it makes my otherwise terrible day, and
jokes of different variety are often welcomed by me. I even have this one Tamil
movie that I rate as funny, not because of the jokes, but the action and
dialogue scenes that often ends me up in roars of laughter. Imagine the hero
being electrocuted by the cops and all he said was “Only mere human can get
electrocuted, but I am Narasimma. When electricity comes in contact with me,
electricity itself gets electrocuted”. The first time I heard these words
uttered, I fell off my chair and tripped on my own ice-cream.

But
jokes can only be used only for a certain times for a certain period, in which
after that it becomes stale and boring. Nevertheless there are certain idiots
who use the same jokes over and over again it brings tears to my ears all for the
wrong reasons.

I
know of this guy who “mutilates” (I refuse to use the word “photoshop”, as one
of my friends described “photoshopping” as having a certain degree of
professionalism) his headshot and attaches it to another body of a woman and
often posts it on discussion forums as a means of laughter to the masses. This
process gets repeated again and again even when trivial or serious subjects are
discussed. The reasons given were that it is a form of relaxation from the
hectic schedule of real life and to relieve tensions caused by real life. Yes,
pretty lame, but such explanations can only be given by those people who really
“needs some” in their real life. Hey I don’t mind photoshopping works, my other
friend from the same discussion board does it too but he don’t overdo it, and
he does it to a certain degree of professionalism, because after all, he is a
graphic artist, but when a two bit wannabe artist wants to do it, it becomes
totally messy and utterly degrading. His art of mutilating his own head and
placing it on a girl’s body often raises question of his own sexual identity,
even though he vehemently claims that it was “all for fun”.

When
you do a certain thing for fun all too often, it means something else.

 

  1. Follow the leader

Why
do people in (1) and (2) gets away with it (at least to my observation)? Why do
they keep repeating the same offence over and over again, trying hard at
excelling in their own stupidity? Why do they keep getting lamer and lamer,
sometimes in exponential rate?

Monkey
see, monkey do.

They
have supports of people who “worship” them of course. There are the people who
had fallen deep in their lives that they look into lameness as a Godly thing. I
don’t want to go further on the psychological aspects of them but for reasons that
sometimes baffles me; they always swoon to the repetitive greatness of the
person mentioned in (1) and (2). I know it’s still hard to understand why some
people choose to support and worship these offenders of social skills but I’m
sorry that I can’t offer you any further explanation on this. I have exhausted
all the research I can do and lay my hands on, on this subject but I have
failed. I really couldn’t find the real reasons why there are some of us who
loves lameness, and maybe I’ll never find the answer.

More
power to me.

 

  1. I can do it! (but I’m blonde)

A
friend of mine befriends a “pretty” girl, and since she claims that she can do
the things he needs for his projects, he hires her. To cut the story short she
failed him by not doing the things that she claimed have extensive knowledge
on, and he ended up losing the deal.

This
is the typical blonde trying to be smart and ending up chewing her own gums.
The reason I put pretty in quotation marks is that she was nowhere near that
stature, but the correct ambience of light, the skimpiness of her clothes and
that layers of thick powders on her face and lips makes her so, giving birth to
the proverbial wannabe Internet soft-porn star.

I’m
not saying all those who are prone to do the “pretty” scene are not smart, but
there is a distinguished difference of being not smart and being not smart BUT
trying to act smart. When you can’t do half the things you claim you can then
don’t do it. Say sorry and walk on, people won’t get offended or worse yet get
angry, but when you went on to the point of spoiling their business deals that
pisses off almost everybody involved.

There’s
nothing wrong in being a blonde, but there is always something wrong in being
an idiot.

 

  1. You are so sexy, ergo you are very smart, ergo you
         are very intellectual

These
are the people who worship (4), just because they are “pretty” and “sexy”. The
explanation is pretty simple: Broad appears. The idiots gasp in awe. Broad
sits, utters a few words and the idiots immediately regards it as the most
brilliant quote of the century. What they fail to hear is the countless
cut-phrases and grammatical errors that are very obvious even to a seven year
old.

I’m
not the greatest writer on the planet. I don’t come close as being great and it
doesn’t really matter to me, for I enjoy writing. I enjoy sharing ideas and
thoughts to the masses. How they accept it is up to them. Some are critical,
some praises. I do know that my works are good, and I’m very happy with them.

I
like reading works by others, especially if it’s thought provoking, creative
and funny. When the comments are due I will give it. But when someone says or
writes something that does not come close to readable, and then these hordes of
saliva drenched mouths of lusting hyenas comes with praises which are not due,
that shows how uncivilized and dumb people can be. As my friend quoted once,
“these are pussy lovers; they will go behind any girl with revealing boobs and
sluttish looks. Thoughts and mind does not matter. In fact they should not matter.
Boobs, it’s all about boobs”

I
fear for the race of men. Some of them are reduced to sex hungry idiots who
regards the less than mediocre works of these wannabe soft porn stars as the
greatest piece of writings and art of all times.

 

  1. The common hypocrites

Oh
I love these guys. Here we have the “say one thing, do another” character, the
same people who would shamelessly quote “Say what you mean, mean what you say”
on their Yahoo and MSN chat captions and does the opposite whole accusing other
of not living up to their captions.

Example?
My ex girlfriend (which one? Let me see, oh! It’s the most stupid one) once
said to me that she will never date anybody from her workplace, but after she
left me, she ended up dating two guys from her workplace anyway. That is
hypocrisy. These are the kinds who have no goals in life, who looks for
temporary pleasures and just hangs on another group of people like parasites.
These are the kinds that the world is talking about and loathes, but they still
roam freely without us knowing. The world is their proverbial playground, and
the people around them exist as their personal toys. The leech from one place
to another, acting as if they are the innocent babies while they hatch up their
devious plan for domination of the lesser species behind everybody’s back. They
are full of conniving plans, with their innocence serving as their perfect
cover.

 

 

The world will never be rid
of these annoyances, but as long as we keep our senses to its optimum level, we
will be able to stay clear off them. Otherwise, we will be serving them like
zombies, and it’s up to those few resistance fighters to bring balance to the
order.
