The Idiot’s guide to Idiocy

The buffet. There’s never enough shrimp and the greedy bastard in front of you is shovelling everything into his plate. What’s annoying is when you see said bastard get up without even clearing his plate and going for seconds (usually for the same dish you set your eyes on). I’m not saying everyone does it, some only stick to one dish. Some sample everything, but never really gorging (sp?) themselves. And then we get to the ones who are so picky they can’t even find one appetizing dish.

Where am I going with this? Courtship. Maybe it’s just me, but all the good ones are always taken and the ones that are around are… well, not to be touched with any object no matter what the length. Some settle for less and come out from the whole thing with someone that’s not quite what they had in mind. Nothing wrong there. At least they appreciate what they end up with.

Me? I think I’ll just wait for the shrimp.

We’ve all got it. Some people try their whole lives to get rid of it. Some just blunder into it. Bad decisions that inevitably lead to bad experiences. Bad experiences are fine, bad karma on the other hand….
Everyone has wondered at some point or other "Why is this happening to me?". The very act of interacting with another person is another horrible opportunity to accrue bad karma. Most people just don’t realize it. A lame joke at someone’s expense, an accidental shove while waiting in line, that dirty look you give the driver who cut in front of you during the jam. Enough people generating malice and contempt towards you and Creation responds in kind, like that japanese movie…(can’t remember title =P)
Karma isn’t a measure of how nice or how evil you are, it’s more of a measure for society itself. We’re degenerating. We’ve lost that oh-so-wonderful phrase "I’m sorry". When was the last time you said sorry to someone and really meant it? When was the last time you heard it from someone and it actually sounded sincere?
I’m not preaching, but I am getting to a point:

"Be an arse and you’ll come out Creation’s arse end"

Has a nice ring to it, yes? Most people will be quick to point out that no man is an island but is that really true? Anyone who is even slightly tech proficient can find a way around it. Need to "bird watch"? There’s tonnes of sites out there to fulfill that craving =P Entertainment? That’s what the TV and Playstation (1, 2 or 3 take your pick) is for.

Maybe for some people the thought of growing old alone is something to fear. I’m not saying that prospect doesn’t scare me (Hey, I get bored easily enough being young). I guess that’s the one good thing about being human, because humans endure. With enough training you can endure anything, so why not loneliness? It’s a lot easier to block out than pain ^_^

There she is… sadly not real. *sigh*
Maybe it’s because I realize just how abrasive I am that I’m just sticking to fictional women, they won’t get offended =P
Then again, I have yet to meet anyone lately that can even be called attractive. Shallow? I’m admiting it proudly right now, if I’m going to spend my time with someone she might as well be easy on the eyes ^_^
Oh well… Maybe some day (some day in a different reality, far far far away, where the laws of physics are different ^_^)

Well… I’ve caved… swept up in the flow of society’s current fad… I’m finally a…. friendster member.
Not that I’m antisocial mind you, I’m perfectly social as long as being social allows me to be a hermit for 3 weeks out of every month =P

So… what is a blog? Is it supposed to be my own personal bitch box? Thoughts of the day? Pfft… let’s start with something simple, meeting new people… I HATE it. There’s always that look a person you just meet that gets on my nerves. That "I’m sizing you up too see if you are worthy look". What’s the point? The majority of humans only interact with other humans only when they can get something out of it. So why size someone up? Why not just accept? That’s the thing isn’t it? No human can do that. It’s hardwired into our brains and no matter how hard we try we can’t escape it.
