It's been a while since I last posted something because of obvious reasons; I'm not inspired by anything, and yes that's the sugarcoated version of "I have nothing good to write about".
I decided to go with another direction this time around. Instead of talking about something, I'm just going to basically complain about everything. So, if you're anti-negative I highly recommend you stop here and save yourself the negativity, otherwise keep reading.
I want to start off by saying that I hate this weather. I know I've been waiting for god knows how long for the sun to be all perfect and sunny but seriously this is too much. This kind of weather only triggers the worst in me; I've been throwing tantrums all through the day and I'm blaming the heat for it. On that note, the Ministry of Electricity is giving me all sorts of reasons to hate the summer. Cutting off the Electricity on certain areas for 2-3 hours a day to create a solution for the shortage we shouldn't be experiencing in the first place is not a solution. How can they even rationalize this decision without sounding completely retarded.
Another reason for this bitch fit are the roads. I have developed extreme road rage issues thanks to the maniacs roaming the streets. It's not bad enough that they don't know the basic rules of driving, they have to be rude about it as well. I'll break down the top 5 reasons why driving in Kuwait should be your number 1 concern:
1-Taxis and Buses. I think we can attribute half of the car accidents in Kuwait to the buses and taxis alone. Taxi drivers think or actually believe that they can stop in the middle of the road, without any signals or anything to pick up or drop off a passenger. They also think that looking right and left, and checking their side mirrors is stupid. Bus drivers on the other hand are more adventurous; they exceed the speed limits and actually start their own races, randomly and suddenly hit the breaks with no consideration to other cars around them, and the best part is their amazing ability to not care. They see a car heading their way and they don't blink twice, they look at the other car in the eye and wait for it to crash into them.
2- "Imnaqibat"- I know, I'm being bias here but I'm dead serious. According to my own and others' personal experience, most imnaqibat shouldn't be on the same streets with us. They really don't pay any attention to anything beyond the four corners of their car, and to add insult to injury they have the worst attitude ever. A friend of mine even said he would rather drive around drunk people than imnaqibat and I agree.
3-Really old people and or teenagers. I don't want to sound mean, but really old people can't drive. They can barely see, let alone drive. They put their lives and others' at risk, when they either drive way below the speed limit or when they swerve around the street with no focus. As for teenagers, I think this speaks for itself; annoying in every way possible.
4- Indians. See points 1 through 3 they're all apply here, but what really ticks me off is how they truly believe that they're always right.
5- loose people in the street. These people are just asking for it. When someone walks around the street not caring whether or not he/she will get hit by a car then they will most likely get hit by a car.
Now, I've been saving the best for last and to me what trumps all of the above are guys, unfortunately of all ages, who harass girls in the streets/malls/any other pathetic place to match their pathetic existence. It's amazing how they have the confidence to pull it off, and even when you reject them time after time their confidence isn't a bit shaken by it. What's so funny is when the guys chasing you are gay, this always puts me in a better mood.
This post is probably gonna have part 2, since I'm not half way through.
And as FJBliss puts it, CHEEEEERS!!
I love this post.
ReplyDeleteI found this post to be extremely positive, because I laughed out loud reading it (sorry if it's not intended to be funny) :p
ReplyDeleteNote: besides really old people/teenagers, I also think women in general are to blame for car accidents, and not only mnaqibat, but women of all ages in general, including my mom and my sisters, just to show you that I'm not biased against women, but this is a fact: WOMEN DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE OR EVEN PARK A CAR!
FJ The post loves you back. I dedicate the electricity part to you :p

When someone is trying to attack your car behind you and you are trying to slow down and warn them about the upcoming traffic camera.
