Here I am, it's 5.37am, and I wonder what I'm doing sitting at my laptop blogging my second post of the night, or morning. Well, it seems to me that my brother Bryan Ho Chi Han has blogged another "literary masterpiece" aimed at making my friends and I look bad in everyone's eyes. It also seems to me that he doesn't learn his lessons very quickly.

Ok, firstly, I do have to apologise for my friends using his nick to make fun of him. I have to admit that it wasn't very friendly on their part.

Now, let me get to the point, or points he brought up this time around. No one attempts to use sarcasm. People (i)use sarcasm, not attempt to use it. How does one attempt to be sarcastic, I don't know. Either your sarcasm is well aimed/timed/said, or it's put in a very obscure way. For the part about him asking our Dad to buy the sub-woofers, it isn't true, because it was me who asked. And I say asked, because unlike him, I won't drop little hints here and there like a girl in order to get my point across or in order to obtain something. It was one fine September day when I called my Dad and said, "Hey Dad, can you buy me a set of sub-woofers? My speakers aren't working that good anymore" and voila!, within the week I had a new set of sub-woofers.
So when my friend accused Bryan of asking my Dad to buy stuff , he was talking about the PS2. My brother seems to think that whenever my Dad buys something, it belongs to him alone. He hoarded the PS2 and claimed it was his, and recently lent it to his friend for 3 months without caring about who actually owned the PS2 (since my Dad bought it, he's the rightful owner).

I would also like to highlight another case. When I started Poly, I didn't have a printer in my room. At that time, my brother was using the old Canon Bubblejet printer in my house. So my Dad bought another printer, a Canon i560 for me to use. So after I set it up in my room nicely for a month, I come home one day and find it in Bryan's room, along with the old Bubblejet. And so there the new printer stayed for a long time, and whenever I took it back, it would "magically" appear back in my brother's room. And recently he claimed that the printer was his. Wow... nice one. You want fries with that? He already had a good enough printer in his room, but because I've a new printer, he must use it. He doesn't seem to get it into his head that not everything in the house is meant for him to use exclusively.

And now he says that I'm being unfair by accusing him of discrediting him on my blog. What I said on my blog is entirely true. He also claims that he doesn't create trouble, and insinuates that I'm the one that starts all the problems. The thing is, majority of the problems at home are caused by him. For example, whenever there's an argument that doesn't concern him, he likes to butt in and say his 2 cents worth, which is really unnecessary and does nothing but cause tensions to escalate and make me angry at him for being such an idiot.

Some people say we shouldn't blame idiots, because they are born the way they are. But I say that some people aren't born idiots, just that they learn the "Tao of Idiocy" from their friends, and thus need to be punished to make them see the light. One example of a disciple of the "Tao of Idiocy" is Bryan Ho. And since he has grown up in the same house with me for 19 years, he should know what kind of temper I have and not try to piss me off by saying stupid things, which almost always lead to bad conclusions. What can I say? He's an idiot.

And please don't make yourself and your friends sound so pathetic by saying that my friends and I outnumber you guys 20-to-1. Don't think that by saying so in your blog you can garner sympathy from people. Only people who are weak use this sort of excuse, saying that people bully them, when they themselves don't know how to stand up and say "SHUT THE F**K UP!" Besides, I don't think when a wiseman said that "stupidity is abundant and wisdom is little", he was aiming at collective groups of people. Within a group itself there may be elements of stupidity and wisdom. And what makes a group of people so special is the way they work with each other, making use of each individual's unique talents to forge stronger ties and to make the bonds stronger. It's not to say that once a group of people are together, they're either all stupid or all wise. It doesn't work that way. Besides, I rather you not insult my friends, because I've known them longer than you've know your current group of punks. We take responsibility for our actions, and won't backstab. Bryan, look what your friends did. He stole your cellphone. What does that say about your friends?

On the subject that he buys stuff with the money he earns, I have nothing much to say, except that my Mom paid for part of the cost of his Nokia 6670, and that he didn't buy the bed he sleeps on. Well, he did (i)want a new bed. So shouldn't he have paid for it himself if he's so proud of the fact that he buys his own personal wants himself? The meals he eats? Well, he just buys instant noodles (everyone knows how cheap they are) and uses ingredients my parents buy. And what of the groceries he buys? Cereal, milk and fruit juice? Are those his 3 meals of the day? My Mom still cooks for him, even if he doesn't come home. But she throws away the food by 12am to 1am, if the food cannot be kept, as the refridgerator is often already full. She will always keep soup for him though, which he will either ignore or just take the ingredients and cook instant noodles with them.

And oh my! "The idiots will continue to wage war against the wise to prove that they are smarter, wiser and much more intelligent". Ok, everyone should know the distinction between idiots and wise men/women. Let's see, if people know that they are idiots, and are definitely inferior to the wise, then why the heck would they want to prove they are superior in terms of wisdom and intelligence? Doesn't that sound stupid? Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot who wrote that little gem of "wisdom". Not exactly material for Sun Tzu's Art of War. And he also says "the wise know when to keep their mouth shut". It seems that the "wise" know when to keep their mouths shut, but not to stop their fingers from typing. It also seems that the "wise" are not that wise after all, because when you shut your mouth in order not to say anything, you don't foolishly post everything on your blog for people to read. And I didn't know that Bryan was a quiet one. He always seems to like to make derogatory comments about people. Not a very wise thing to do, right?

Oh my, oh my, oh my! Bitch, bitching, bitched. Now now, we all know who started all this "bitching", Bryan. Don't go looking around at others. You started bitching about us, so now you'll stop talking about us like you're so much better, and then we'll stop talking about you. We don't bitch about people, as it's such a rude way to put things. We discuss about situations and recent developments that are in the news. You like to make it sound as if you're never in the wrong, yet you love to insult people, thinking yourself better than them. It's already so evident in your posting, when you call us "idiots", and you and your merry band of friends "wise". And that is the attitude of people who consider themselves "holier-than-thou".
