yandao.com - Memoirs of a player wannabe

Ah, how I wish my mobile blogging system was up so I could just dump this post onto the net while *still* on the train - then again, maybe I should create a service to do that for others.. Hmm..

No, don’t think dirty. A guy problem doesn’t mean some STD or something, nor some chimnological medical term for illness which only occurs in the male homosapien. What were YOU thinking of?

Anyways, I’ve came across yet another scene which really brings out the fact that the general population of guys are insensitive idiots. Yes, yes, I’m a guy, but I really do think that I’m not that silly (unknowingly), am I? Heh.

Seated opposite me in the train, among the masses of kids, ah bengs (local slang for gangster kids - or kiddy gangsters, whichever comes first) on cheap Nokia 3-series cellular phones and wannabes sporting fake, sorry, er, engineered Nike sneakers , and deranged soccer fans engaged in their own world on the phone, are two people which particularly sticks out. Maybe it’s just to me, or maybe anyone would feel the same - I don’t know - for the very reason that I’m not anyone.

Covered in lemon yellow tops (that includes a shirt, for the guy), the duo also donned matching bottoms - jean skirts and full length jeans, respectively. At this point, I must say that the female is of higher than average standards (more than your gal next door), and the guy looks like a dork - geeky, like the overfed computer technician or something.

What caught my attention really, *wasn’t* the looks of the gal, but rather the idiot-cy of the dorky male. He was trying to snatch a copy of the New Paper (you know, that local gossipy newspaper which calls teachers making 5000 bucks a month and loansharks headline news) from the lady, presumably his girlfriend.

From a 3rd party perspective, I do think it was quite prominent that she wanted to tease him - the purposedful evil grin, and the playful flirtatious actions she used on the guy. Strangely, like most of the insensitive people of my gender - he catch no ball, when the ball was thrown directly smack on at his face, and forcedfully snatched the paper back.

The next thing he did, I’m sure the ladies reading this would consider unforgivable for a limited time - shoving the handbag which he was helping carry back on her lap and shifting away, acting PROUDLY that he got the paper back. Seriously, WTF? - and they say older guys got more experience.

Now I do wonder if I might come across an ah pek doing something similar… Hmmm.

At that point, she looked seriously pissed, and reached into her handbag, digging for something. Obviously, predictable - since the guy had his paper, yellow-clothed gal wanted her share of “occupation”.

I guessed she’d probably fish out a phone or an MP3 player, and was right in both aspects - her phone was both.

Oh, and the guy still was in his own world reading lousy gossip from a lousily published and crappily written local paper. Eh, want gossip? Yandao.com’s a much better source, seriously. At least got incentives for reading even. (Think: Yandao.com/Photo)

They say patience, is very, very, rare in such situations, but another unimaginable thing happened - the gal reached over and tried to hug Mr Yellow and showed concern as to what he was reading about. Unfortunately, as with anyone insensitive a few minutes back, he did not see the chance =X

Sucker. LOL.

Oh well, observing such silly arguments teaches much much good lessons to Kelvin - who says experience can’t be gained from others’ misfortune?
