Today is World Earth Day. Today I found myself tossed by the very choppy waves of the sea. My stomach turned queasy, I popped a motion sickness pill and crawled below to sleep it off.
After a while I felt better and rejoined the gang. And suddenly I recalled that exactly last year on World Earth Day, I was on a boat in Miri and the exact same thing happened. I felt nauseous, popped the pill and slept.
Coincidence? Perhaps. But let’s see what happens next year during World Earth Day. Heh.
Lately, I have heard or come across strange folks like these. I rate
them on a scale of 1 to 5 in terms of danger quotient. The higher the
rating, the more dangerous they are to your health – mental or
otherwise.
- People who comment on their own Facebook status and Wall postings.
It’s like they are having a conversation all by themselves online for
all to see. WTH? Danger scale: 1 out of 5 – leave them alone in their own world. If it makes them happy, leave them to it.
- People who have an extremely large sense of entitlement. Yea, yea,
we know you have your own mag. So, what? Unless you have a Dato’
attached to your name, you are just a normal folk like any one of us.
Take a number and queue lar. Danger scale: 2 out of 5 – let
them heave and rant all they want. You never know when you need to
apply for a job at their mag. But then again, who would want a drama
king/queen boss like that?
- People who want to make a turn to the left but keep hogging the left
lane – effectively preventing others from using that lane. Stick to
your own lane lar. Danger scale: 3 out of 5 – they are
dangerous on the road if you yourself are not alert to their doings.
Do not daydream while driving and you should be safe from these jokers.
- People who lodge a report/warning letter against you but pretend as
if nothing had happened. Sweet as a honey bee… a lethal one. Danger scale: 5 out of 5 – If you can help it, stay far away from such.
This is a Coolcat public service. May all of mayhem be curbed and eradicated from the lives of the innocent!
