everyone has their limits. no matter how patient some one may be, cross that line and its like all hell breaks lose. when it comes to teasing someone about something, yea, its funny the first few times. more than that, its just plain annoying already. it may be funny to you, but how do you think the person you're talking about feels? they may smile and laugh it off. but on the inside, its a different reaction all together. whether is calling someone fat, or calling someone ugly. whether its making fun of them racially or in terms of their religion. its really not funny. so stop living in that bubble of yours, thinking its okay to just insult or crack jokes like that. cos contrary to what you may think, its really not that funny after all. people just tend to oblige and humor you, instead of saying to your face 'shut the hell up' or just punch you. or slap you. though that happens in some of our heads a lot.
yea we know how screwed up society is. you're fat if you're not skinny. the whole social stigma about fat people and stuff. and religion. you're allowed to be insulted/born to be insulted if you're a minority (even if you're the only one of the majority race in a social group) like, just cos the majority of the group is Chinese, everyone else is allowed to be insulted or made fun of. its seriously annoying and it pisses me off like hell.
that girl you ugly or fat. its not her fault, and most of the time, its biological. its not her fault she doesn't look like your ideal plastic-kind-of-perfect person. its in the genes. so you wanna blame he parents? well they got their genes from their parents too. so who do you wanna go on blaming then? Adam and Eve? or God himself? to you, she's just a fat and ugly person. to someone, she's everything and more. you really wouldn't want someone to ask you if you have a mirror at home, do you? its not like you're perfect anyway. unless you want a mirror as a birthday present, look at yourself before passing judgment about others. and that girl you call fat? she may have a bigger heart that your skinny ass. if you even have one visible enough, that is.
and those racial and religion-based jokes or comments people tend to make. its seriously insensitive. so much for being cultured and sensitive to the feelings of others around you. whats worse if things like this come from those who are majoring in a social science, who study things revolving around this issue. yea I'm half Indian, half Chinese. and i may be more inclined towards my Chinese side in me, but that doesn't mean you get to insult or make racist jokes about the other race I'm made of.
sometimes, the urge to convey my thoughts, unfiltered, is so high. but those words may cut so deep that it'll just create more problems. or you're just too dense to even get it. trust me when i say I'm not the only one who thinks this way. people just keep quiet to avoid problems. and those judgments people tend to pass bout someone's behaviour? lets just say some of us are more mature and have reasons to the things we do and do not do. i'm no even gonna talk about that cos that itself could be one whole post already.
anyway. I'm not saying we cant joke around and stuff. its just that there is a limit to everything. if your mouth keeps spitting out comments or insults all day, you're just becoming a real pain in the ass. stop being so insensitive. and seriously, people like that should learn to grow up and think their age. harsh, but true. i'm not going to apologize for speaking my mind, or just cos i have a different opinion from the majority.
*this post isnt directed to anyone in particular but more of a general opinion i have on the issue due to recent happening around me. kinda got me thinking*
