Blog Wars

Hmm.. strangely enough the local SG blogging community has gotten quite enraptured with the on-going blog wars involving some famous blogging names like Xiaxue and Kenny Sia. Even our local queen of self-proclaimed SPGs aka SPG herself has gotten involved. Here's my take on the on-going war:

Man.. the war is simply spiralling out of control. Personal attacks are getting a little crude and underhanded at best and the worst part is that most of the attackers prefer to remain anonymous. Of course, the web gives one the opportunity of anonymity but if the hatred for one party is so high and people are taking potshots at these "poor" folk (read poor because they think they're being victimised) I think its only right that these people identify themselves and if they really have balls, go ahead and screw the ones they hate.

I don't like to judge but frankly speaking, who creates a hate site for her own self and maintained by herself? Publicity stunt aside, creating a big hooha on both sides of the Causeway by slamming Malaysian people in the capital city of KL only serves to inflame passions of two very competitive nations that were once united as one. When race is dragged into the picture, it really makes me seeth. Yes she (Xiaxue) has the right to complain and bemoan her experiences in KL but who gives a rat's ass if you got overcharged or you paid extra compared to what you would pay in Shenzhen? Damn.. its your own frigging fault if you didn't bargain or you didn't settle on a flat fee for the cab ride. Mind you, in Malaysia most cab drivers don't follow the meter. Perhaps her visits to Ipoh, JB and Melaka didn't TRAIN her enough to know that meters don't "apply" in Malaysia. I love Malaysia and frankly speaking, if she can create an online war between our brothers in Malaysia and Singapore, to hell with her experiences. And calling a Malay a fucker just because one Melayu failed to respond to her query only makes her look like a big buffoon. If I called a Chinese a fucker just because he/she didn't respond to a question I asked, is that warranted?

Xiaxue, if you're reading this, feel free to diss me all you like on that pink-addicted blog of yours but really, who gives a rat's ass on what you blog on nowadays? I won't sink to your level and make you look bad but please do look in the mirror the next time you think you're prettier than others. Most of your images look like they're Photoshopped. Editing images is OK but when you over-edit to electronically "enhance" your looks then believe me you're just afraid of your own look. Judging others doesn't mean others cannot judge you and slam you for your lack of tact or feeling when you slam other people. Deal with the insults and verbal shenanigans against you but then again, you only have yourself to blame. Like they say, you reap what you sow, so don't friggin' complain!

And by the way, Malaysia Boleh! and Singapore OK!
