And So He Tried

Which brings me.. some people are just major oddballs. Social deviants I'd say.. Perhaps there are enough out there to form a little community. Why else do I always get friendster messages which will blatantly put the author in an undignified light? The message below was sent to me by someone recently, grossed me out enough to prompt this post.. I'm utterly sorry to you mister, but please, do note that ah-lians are much more susceptible to such stunts.

"HI zelda ;)

I am trying to expand my network of friends
And i just come across your profile and find u quite interesting;)keke
so hope that I can get to know u better!
Well perhaps I shall give a self intro about myself so u can know me better ;)

Name: XXX
Age : 27
Currently I am self employed, running a tuition business.>
My pastimes are singing,watching movies,swimming , table tennis and Chinese chess.
I love investing in the stock market and occasionally i also goes to pubs to chill out for a drink with my friends. What about you?
Hmm.. do u have MSN? Mine XXX@hotmail.com
Perhaps I can add u. And can we exchange hp no?"

My Reply:

"Hi XXX,

I am utterly sickened by you calling me zelda cos I don't even know you, so please refrain from acting all pally with me by giving me a moniker. and did anyone tell u it's extremely un-macho to type stuff like "keke". Seriously, what emotion were you trying to display?

So you think telling me you run your own business and you loving investments will gain u brownie points? Next time, say you're an oil tycoon, perhaps that might help. You sound like you're probably one of those who hogs the mic in the karaoke and clamour to belt out a solo at every chance possible, even when it's not your song. You damn hell sound like my loser first boyfriend who'll break out in a sudden song and dance. yuck. So you "also goes to pubs"? hmmm should I reccommend proof reading or grammar lessons?

"Perhaps I can add you". Wrong move again. Shouldn't you be requesting that I add u?"

*Beam* Shao will be so proud of me for being this mean. Hahaha.

Speaking of bad English, hell I'm serious it's repugnant. Watch the grammar guys!
This guy tried chatting me up while I was queueing for my yong tau foo today.

"Did I saw you before? Over here?"
*roll eyes* not another one....sigh. But I was much nicer this time round since he's at my face in the flesh. haha..
"I hope not."
Such a subdued crisp reply. Haha.
*Beam* Shao will be proud of me again. Haha.
