Caller tunes When you call some people on their cell-phone, you have to listen to their favourite music before they pick up. Their favourite music, not necessarily yours. Phone etiquette Or somebody calls you on your own phone and once you pick up, they ask you: Ke bua le mang? You mean you dont know who you called? Mascom ads There are the perpetual Mascom adverts on my cell-phone, at least one every day, telling you about the latest offers I am never interested in. Poor parking There are the people who cant or wont park their cars properly, forcing you to get in through the passenger door when you return from shopping. Chewing gum There are the people chewing gum with their mouth open, and, as for gum, there is the stepping in other peoples chewing gum, something you only realise when you want to change your foot from the accelerator to the brake pedal. Go tla siama There are the people who tell you: go tla siama, no matter what problem you present them with. And then of course there are those who last used the toilet before you and leave exactly two sheets of paper on the toilet roll and you only find out when youre done. Curse them! Dark sunglasses Then there is something I consider as outright rude. People, whether you know them or not, who come and talk to you wearing very dark shades. Shades so dark you cant see their eyes. I find it extremely rude and it bugs me. Why? Because eyes say much more than words. Someone can say: I love you and smile while saying it, but eyes can tell you the complete opposite. Take off your shades when you talk to me. What are you trying to hide? It really bugs me. Commenting on this before you read Finally, dear readers, there is one thing I have to say about the comments to my blogs that sometimes bugs me. I fully realise I sometimes write about controversial issues. I want to. I like to get discussions going, getting people to think about issues, knowing very well I sometimes go against the grain, present opinions that many people disagree with. I dont expect people to agree with me and I welcome comments from people who utterly disagree with me. I dont even mind being called names, which quite regularly happens. What does bug me is that it is often clear that a large number of people comment without having read the actual blog; that people comment on the title only. That seriously bugs me. Click on the link, read the blog and then call me anything you want to.
