Friendship Gifts (2)

March 1, 2007

I’m tired of pretending to be excited every time its somebody’s birthday. I mean, at 21 years and more, what’s the big deal ?

how many times do we have to celebrate that someone was born? Every year, every person, over and over?

All you did was not die for 12 months……..

This is the big accomplishment ?

frankly, i don’t like being sung “happy birthday” to. I don’t like those frosting cakes too…..and i don’t like pretending that i liked a gift.

“did u like this tie?”

Lie – “of course, I did” Truth – Actually, i don’t know y u cud not get me a pen drive…….it’d certainly have been cheaper and i cd hv used it, who needs a stupid tie anyway?

“Are you sure?”

Lie – “yes, i love it” Truth – i just said it, Moron!!

“I cd hv gotten u a shirt too”

Lie – “no problem” Truth – yes, prolong the agony….i’m sure ur shirt would have matched this ghastly tie.

“I knew you’d like it”

Lie – yeah, its perfect Truth- i don’t like ur gift, its stupid….i already knew u were an idiot, bt this is beyond anything u have ever done.

Friendship Gifts

March 1, 2007

just the other day i was going through a friend’s profile…..lots of requests frm unknown guys “hi, can we be friends?”

what is the thought process behind such requests? Do they really think a girl would be impressed……probably they flood 100’s of girls everyday with such messages and think aloud to themselves “Maybe today is the lucky day…. ” maybe some girl wd reply back

“hey! i know ur profile is fake bt somehow ur words have had the greatest impact on me. I know its only a frndship request……..bt i have fallen in love with u. Can we hook up?”

to me, frnship requesting is the orkut way of spamming…..maybe someone, somewhere is so desperately in need of friends,  they’ll fall for the spammers.

the human obsession with creating new friends out of thin air is perplexing…….we think of ourselves as magicians, cha-ching, kazzam - hey i made a friend, can u do that sir (of course, u can’t….my gregarious is well documented ;) )
