After all that period of thinking, maturing, flaming, i've come upon a few (obvious) conclusions to share
Number one is that some people act a lot different depending on the age, status, gender of a person.
You can't call someone fake because he spouts vulgarities in front of his friends but refrains from it in front of girls. You can't say he is putting on a facade, cause niggas are teh pwn, and also because its a basic human thing to treat people differently according to their status. To teachers and parents you have to show your respect in a very direct manner such as greeting, but you don't have to do that with friends.
In front of girls, a guy probably doesn't want to make himself look like a-er hooligan, but why's that? If every guy acts like a hooligan, a hooligan will become the norm. The fact is, most guys try to be the gentleman in front of those who they want to impress. Is being gentlemanly to only females fake? No cause it's gay to be gentlemanly to males, it just ain't cool nigs.
Number two Online VS Real-life, Pros and Cons of each.
Online, anything you say is worth less(KILL THE SPACE AND YOU READ "WORTHLESS"). You can avoid awkward confrontations such as awkward silence, you can ask sensitive questions, you can become piss someone off without feeling awkward and the words just roll off easier online. (ACTUALLY THAT DEPENDS. TOUCHING GIRLS = PISS FAST)
And why? Cause you get to think. You get to research on the internet on sensitive questions, you get to test your dream guy's feeling by going "hey junyang, wanna make out with me?" and when i say "TOO UGLY TOO UGLY, I AM TOO CARRY", they'll go "lol my friend was crapping around on my comp" while crying after being rejected by me. And i'll go "yea, i thought you were fooling around, you so pretty how can be ugly? (:"
You can be more approachable by screaming in CAPS LOCK "HIS PALMS ARE SWEATY KNEES WEAK ARMS ARE HEAVY" RAPPING IN AN ONLINE CHANNEL and (NORMAL) people will know you're fooling around and fool around with you too. But it's strange to SCREAM IN CAPSLOCK in public places cause everyone thinks you're insane and it hurts your vocals. And, while screaming online is cool, screamin in real-life is not ): .
Online items are worth less, so you can help some poor guy out by giving him some gold and shiz and make a friend, simple as that. In real-life, its not as easy to come across a chance to help, and parents go DON'T TALK TO STRANGERS and it takes a longer time to be more er- friendly with the other guy in real-life.
So those are the pros. And the cons is simply it's worthless.
In real-life, you can't do much last minute research. Your knowledge is what you have on the streets and you can't add to it. So if you sound knowledgeable in something, you sound all that much more convincing cause the other party knows you ain't doing LAST MINUTE RESEARCH GOOGLE.
In real-life you can't really put on another persona that's quite unlike, unless you GOOD at acting, and it'll feel weird. If you're a great guy people will think you're a great guy online. If you make a friend in real-life, maybe you can't go WTF YOU SUCK online but you can kick up a conversation immediately when you see him as opposed to if you only knew him online before that.
If you look into someone's eyes (especially a prettaye girl) you can shock her with your eyes, but it's hard to seduce a girl with words cause words = nerdy. If you help someone in streets basketball soccer goal dribblie stepovers sweaty palms weak YOU GET THE PICTURE.
Number 3, Rapping is something you can do, when you have nothing to do, and look cool, and not a silent fool looking like a stunned mule.
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.
Number 4, It's hard to stay away from following the crowd, but once you get the courage to do it, it becomes easy from there.
I remember in primary 5 or something, there was this guy called gareth and he was quite the popular guy, though at that point i think he was half-nice, half-mean cause he seems to have this shit going on where a lot of the guys followed him and half the time i was too, but eventually i felt quuiite an idiot and tried to mix with the other classes (despite the EVER-EVIDENT MAINERS - GEPPERS boundary) and played soccer with em.
You know i went to church today, first time there and when the person in charge asked for us to rise and sing some hymms i was fighting in my mind. I'm not a christian, do i stand along with them and sing, or should i sit down. Another thought came into my mine, that being in their House of God, even if i didn't believed, i oughta show some respect to their beliefs and stand along, even if i didn't sing.
Later on, they had this time for prayer and all of a sudden everyone got onto their knees and started praying. Karen told me i didn't have to do the same, which was a great help cause i didn't want to, but you know, in that environment where everyone around you is a believer of god, praying on their knees and you are the odd one out, there was this calling to follow the crowd. But surprisingly, i managed to brush it off with ease, maybe cause of karen's prompting, or maybe it's just proof that i find it easier not to follow the crowd after i've told myself all these years not to.
Number 5
On topics you are ignorant about, STAY ON THE FUCKING FENCE AND DON'T ACT LIKE YOU'RE PRO AND SHIT CAUSE YOU'VE READ A FEW ARTICLES AND WATCHED SOME TV.
It so pisses me off to see people diss chinese kungfu (CAUSE ITS THE CHINESE PRIDE), just because they watch fighting tournamonts or have practiced some sort of martial art. Wing-chun is chinese kungfu, and it's known to be effective. Before you make silly judgements, try to do some research and BE someone knowledgeable before spouting all your shit.
Same for people who don't know soccer and act as if it's a really easy sport to play, dissing, dissing, and more dissing. Don't compare world-class standards, the english premier league where soccer is a job, to secondary school level. Don't impress upon YOUR standard of football that you think people should play and expect people to be able to play up your expectations.
Don't know shit, shutup, simple, stupid.
Number 6, Great things come out from inspiration.
Check out ryan gigg's fa cup goal on youtube. Check out tracy mcgrady's 13 points in 43 second effort to carry his team to a 1 point victory. Most of my blog posts were written in inspiration. This ain't one of them, sadly, and it quite feels old. Actually. Feels im repeating myself. Over. Over.
SO check this out, check this out
Stupid thug, stupid lout
All you do is shit and shout
Pathetic, crude, brute, vulgarities
Smacks of Cowardice
How bout using those fists
To be an angel, not a beast
To help, not whelp
Get the bravery, the courage
To end slavery,
Or you afraid, of not getting laid
Getting shamed and blamed
For doing things the long way,
Stead of the short 'n 'wrong play,
Catch what i say?
