What I’ve Learned & Observed
SharePosted on 05. Mar, 2007 by Gallivanter in Thoughts
1 – You’ll never find anyone who is able to give you a compelling reason why the hell do we need to observe daylight savings. We suffer from October to March every year, to wake up one hour late, to stay up one hour later, to watch football!
2 – Don’t say anything to a woman that remotely suggest you think she’s pregnant, until you can see the baby moving all about. Men too. Hahahaha!
3 – Gossip, the world’s most powerful fabricator. Destroys friendship and even relationship, devours everything. So be warned.
4 – We ALL believe that we’re above-average drivers, and not the ones breaking the law. But subconsciously or otherwise, we do it too.
5 – There will come a time when you should STOP expecting people to make your birthday a big deal. That should be when you’re 12. I hate birthday cakes.
6 – Blogging. Blogging for traffic. Being a traffic whore. There is a FINE LINE between hobby and mental illness. Traffic whores, please take note.
7 – People who boast about their religious views, however slanted it may be, never want you to share your opinions with them. Bloody born-again converts.
8 – One word, tha humans, will NEVER EVER achieve its full potential. It’s called MEETING. A total waste of time after 5 minutes.
9 – You should NEVER confuse your career with your life. A job is only a job. It puts food on the table. That’s it, don’t go glorifying money. Or buying status. Get a life.
10 – A person who is extremely nice to you, but then shouts at another person in the cinema to shut up, instead of doing it properly, is NOT a nice person. I ditched her.
11 – No matter what happens, there are always people who seem to have an uncanny way to take things too bloody seriously. Loads of them these days. Sensitive nuts.
12 – People who are virgins most of the time claim that they wanna preserve their virginity, aka “doing the noble thing”, when deep down inside, all they wanna do is to lose their cherry.
13 – People who claim to have solid foundations of life, just wither like vegetable when they fall in love. It only shows they didn’t have a solid foundation in the first place.
14 – When a food you are about to consume looks weird, or from a certain weird part of an unknown creature, people always claim that it’s good for your virility. WTF?

However, to be fair…
1. Your #4 is essentially the same as my #72.
2. Your #8 is essentially the same as my #110.
2. I really like your #9.
3. Your #13 and #14 too.
All in all, nice list. I’ll bookmark you.

#10: Somehow i have little respect for people who throws a big fuss at people in the service line ..unless they had a good reason, but even so, do it tactfully. like waiting for lunch for 1 hour…..hehe
#11: I see what you mean. i do observe that people are over-sensitive about the most trivial thing. Trivial to me anyways. perhaps the problem is people don’t know what is trivial and what’s not in the first place.

Bullies. I bloody hate them, especially those who pick on lady drivers, old drivers, and other meek people in queues (fast food joints, cinema, etc).
I have made it my personal crusade to pick fights with bullies. My tally so far stands at 7 such episodes – 6 of which my wife is not too happy about

Keropok Bullies are cowards! They’re arrogant because they’re safely tucked behind their wheels. These wankers need ethical calibration!
tihtahpah Errr…me no eat pig. Period. And any other animal spare parts.
Mo Oi…don’t get my blog dirty…if you wanna hurl, go visit tihtahpah’s blog. She had an entry with a photo of a suckling pig. Blech!
sunil Amen for FLAMING LAMBORGHINI!
Well, based on my life research on virgins and their antics over the years. Hahahaha! They HAVE the SAME PATTERN!

#6: isn’t a hobby addictive? or is blogging a hobby or an addiction? whether we blog for money, hobby, etc, is it still a hobby if we are constantly thinking about blogging?

tihtahpah Yes, hobbies are meant to be addictive, but one shouldn’t revolve one’s LIFE around it, else we’ll end up forming Blogaholics Anonymous! Hahahaha!

1) Daylight’s saving time…goddamit…what is up with that? I don’t feel the difference.
I admit it.
2)Uh…ya…I think it is always best to steer clear away from comments that refers to any parts of any body unless it reflects some hotness.
3)Gossip…it’s such a paradox…it’s so wrong but yet so funnnn….only when it’s NOT about you of course. LOL Well, if you gonna do it you gotta know how to handle it right?
4)I have been spoilt by the simple driving trend of the Boonies. I am a pussy driver.
5)Man, I am always going to expect the people I care about to make a big deal about my bday coz I would do the same for the other. It’s about the day you were born. All the ones who are booing me for this comment prolly got a chip on his/her shoulder
6)Hobbies keeps the brain young
7)There is a fine line between believing in religion and being an arrogant fanatic…
8)I like meetings…it’s a good way to grow as a group. If you don’t like your meetings then the one leading the meeting has no clue.
9)Total agreement
10)Total agreement
11)Ya I am one of them during PMS.
12)Daniel, who did you hear this from? People who haven’t lost their cherries by now ain’t gonna advertise it. Now, the one that talks a whole lotta shit about getting lots of ass is probably the one who only lost his cherry to himself. ROLF
13)Total agreement
14)It’s just the bait…

Rudy Excellent comments as usual…
BTW, I’ll never forget your birthday, as you’re my best friend, hence, an exception to the rule.
