Schadenfreude

Blog bash

Thursday, December 4, 2008, 10:52 PM

So i've seen my fair share of blogs and i must say that 4 out of 5 blogs are bashing other people blogs.

Now i wonder why?

Is it because they have offended them? Have they insulted them? Then why are they flaming the other person?

After all, isn't a blog like an art? Freedom of expression?? Your diary to pen (or type) down your thoughts and desires??

BULLSHIT. (well sorta)

I mean if you think about it, even if you wanted to keep a blog as a diary and made it private, that's stupid because there's this thing called HACKING. Ever heard of it? For those who keep blogs (me included) what we really want is _____________

eh... i dunno la. Fill in your blank. As for me, why do i keep a blog? Firstly, to share with my friends my mundane life which sucks. So they know they can keep track of my every sad/happy moment. Oh yes, and to fill in my boredom which is what i'm doing right now.

Sometimes i even put more thought into my blog than my RJ but then again there's no comparison right???? Hur hur.

Back to the point which was other people bashing other people blogs. I'm not saying its wrong. In fact, let me join in on the fun... :D YESSSSAR.... MY TURN.

But 1st let me share 5 thing's i hate to see in a blog.
(not in order of annoyance. Just in order of whatever pops into my noggin' first)

1. MUSIC

You know that irritating sound whenever you try to enter a blog and their stupid music is playing?? Esp irritating when you want to listen or watch a show at the same time. It makes me want to pull out my already balding hair so why add to the stress?? Even worse, i went to dawn yang's website and there was this irritating korean music playing. You know the cutsey one?? Well, unfortunately for me, i couldn't find the DAMN OFF BUTTON or the pause switch so i promptly closed the damn thing and never went back. I like my OWN music thank you very much. But this is not so much a problem unless i can't find the off button then URGH.

2. BAD ENGLISH + 3. BAD TYPOGRAHPY

PLEASE. THERE ARE PROPER FONTS FOR A REASON.

nO OnE CAn rEaD uR LAuPoK EnGRIsh. diD OO fRail EnGRish? wHaA... I bZ Laa, sO tYpe lIke ShIt AlSo cAn LoRX... AnW nW I wAn PpLe rEaD tHis So fUn hORs.

Trying to type that out gave me a headache. Urgh.
After all, as singaporeans, we are allowed some bad english here and there. As for me, my written english sometimes sucks to the max but broken to the core english til you really cannot understand a WORD that person is trying to say is too much....

4. People acting "cute"

You know the typical pose of an Ah lian... or any other girl who thinks JJ lin is cute or Jay Zhou or whatever they listen to nowadays always holding their 2 fingers up to their cheek?? Or the one finger poking their cheek with their cheeks puffed out??? OOH, how about that one where you extend you're eyes to the biggest and try to look "innocent"?? Awww.... NOT. That's stupid and you don't look cute.

If that's the image a corporate company wants you to use... Go ahead and embarrass yourself.

Unacceptable for people over 10.

Acceptable if you want to die from public humiliation.

And finally....

5. RANDOM STUFF

You know its interesting to read a blog about another person's life right? NOT WHEN ITS LIKE THIS:

eg:

My life is a stream
filled with fishes and such
going as fast as i can
never reaching what i can't touch.

or

I feel alone
My darkness is creeping
I get chocolate
I get bed.

WHATEVER. NO ONE UNDERSTANDS WHAT THE HELL YOU MEAN YOU BORING SICKENING PERSON.

Thanks for reading! I need to get up early tmr so :D
