"Right now i have to take abuse from these morons, but in twenty years, they'd be working for me" - Greg Heffley
That was the main character of 'Diary of a wimpy kid'. I just watched the film yesterday. It isn't that good so unless you're rich and free, there are better things to do.
So in the film, Greg Heffley has this best friend Rowley Jefferson. Rowley is just an idiotic dumbass. He does weird things, wears weird things, have weird sense of humor, unlike the main character Greg who is relatively more normal, except he tries too hard. One day Greg broke Rowley's hand which brought attention to Rowley. Soon, Rowley became famous.
I really dont understand how and why Rowley is so popular in school. He really is one big weirdo. And the best part is when he gets all popular in school and stuff, he doesnt give his best friend Greg a little push whatsoever. This really frustrates me.
People says that its the best to 'just be yourself', but what if being yourself is the worst? Its like.. Its the best to be the worst. And its also irritating to see in real life how social retards or intellectual morons sometimes gets all the attention. How did it happen?!
RaNdom: Wow.. Everyone knows me now. Its like, im famous or something.

Try not to use the logical argument in "it's the best to be worst" - because unfortunately not everything follow logic. The second part "being yourself is the worst" seems to come out from someone who compares his/her nature to social norms and culture norms. Being yourself is being who you are despite what society or people say against you - be it having over-positive or negative traits.
ReplyDeleteIn real life, social retards or intellectual morons do get the attention; generally, most people like retards and morons. Look at America with people fawning over idiots flashing their lives on Youtube with millions of views. Look what's happening to Disney channel. Disney princesses are becoming Disney w*^!#s - and people like them for it.
Perhaps it's a counter-culture issue. While Singapore expects its people to be all cultured and intelligent, some teens or people for that matter go counter-culture - the idea of rebelling against culture norms, and quite literally.
