About 2 months ago, I received a Friendster message from a long-lost friend, no, long-lost classmate. His message sounded pretty innocent and asked for my number. So I gave him my number.
Then he started calling me a few weeks later and asked to meet-up. So I thought, ok, meet up lor. So we arranged for a date, but later I had to change that as I wasn't free eventually. And he kept calling again and asked for meet-ups.
Fishy fishy. What do you think he is? Insurance? MLM? Or purely to remember the old days? I have no idea, but he briefly mentioned that he is currently working at his dad's place. Hmmm. So finally, I decided to meet up with him. So that he will STOP pestering me. And he did not even mind coming down to JP all the way from the east to meet me! Ok he has a car, but it's still very far... So let's wait then and we'll see why is he soooo desperate to meet me, and perhaps other long-lost classmates.
Anyway I dun call this irritating yet. Not when I compare him with this...
I was happily jogging at Bedok Reservoir at my comfortable pace when from nowhere, this 40+ y/o man overtook me. And he started to BLOCK my path. It's like you are jogging with someone you know and you block each other's path for fun so that your friend will not overtake you. And this stupid guy is doing this to me!
Initially I didn't think too much of it and I thought Ok he just wanted to overtake me la. So I boh chup him and continued jogging at my pace. But after some time, I realised, he's still at such a short distance away from me. Shouldn't he be far ahead?? Somemore, as I was behind him, he kept turning back to look at me, as if indicating something...
What?? Is he beo-ing me?? He gay ah??
Heng ah, after a while, someone faster overtook me and that crazy guy targetted him now. And he was trying to block his path too like what he tried to do to me. Siao ah!! I decided to jog real slowly behind now so as maintain a far distance from him. Safe, temporarily.
Unfortunately, near the end when I was sprinting, I saw that crazy guy in front again! And he seemed happy that he has someone to 'play with' and as I approached him, he tried to block my path again. I decided to play with him now, but surprisingly, his stamina seemed quite good too. He was like sprinting alongside with me for quite some distance... Finally I reached my destination, slowed down and stopped. And yeah, he did the same. Until some other jogger came along and he played with them. Go go go, get lost!
With this, I concluded:
1. He's not gay. Dun think so.
2. He is simply irritating. Horribly irritating.
3. However, irritating people usually have a lot of stamina so that they can irritate many other people.
