I was sitting at this café and which I have sat many times. I cannot help it but observed that desperation actually smells.
It is quite funny to see that people will do absolutely anything for some visibility and some sniff of the opposite sex. I cannot help it but run away some times because I am not sure whether I am obligated to stay just to say, really I don't give a damn or I should just to walk away and just my luck to meet such people.
But it is becoming with exceeding frequency that I have been meeting people that gets under my skin. But personally, I feel that I have paid for my drink and I am free to drink, eat and consume whatever I want just because some people don't have the decency to see themselves in the mirror to scram.
Hence I do not feel obligated to react to people whom is under the belief that they believed that the world belongs to them just because some people just prefer peace and quiet and breaking it, gives them the power to do so. Normally, I zone out. After all, when I pay $6.30 for my Morroccan mint tea, I expect to be able to consume in a manner which anyone is expected to consume.
Anyone who wants to break the monotone of the atmosphere is in a position which condones such such behaviour and not be flouting social conventions just because they are trying to grab attention. Maybe, movies has made a scene where thick skin gets the girl- one must always remember that the real life is not a movie- it involves everyone in the room and not just two people in a room. If one is looking to display their amourous inclinations, an al fresco café facing a hawker centre is not the right place to do so.
Hence, if anyone watches too many movies and thinks that the life imitates art, I can safely tell you that, art resides in a gallery and is observed in isolation and not in full view of everyone. I am not inclined to show anyone any graces just because someone cannot separate reality from celluloid.
I can safely say that if you can work and engage in a social environment, you don't need anyone to tell you in the face that you are disrupting an environment which is predicated on something beyond quite narrow definitions.
If I have my way, I hoped only to walk into the café, get to get my work done and people were to walk in, they were most likely to engage in banter and banal talk and if you so wish engage in light reading and not hoping that a SDU member were to walk in and maybe a serendipitous moment were to occur.
And if you wish for this serendipitous moment to happen, I would suggest to do in a manner which results in the least collateral damage which means, get in and get out. Get the number and really don't make such a loud din and if you don't have the quiet movement of lynx, an elephant in a room is not quite attractive.
Sometimes, I think I am subsidizining someone's amorous activities just because I just want some alone time. My $6.30 does not even cover a dinner and so I would suggest that there isn't anything I can help you with.
My suggestion is that, pretend that I am not there because in reality, I really don't give a damn what you do or say but like any patron of any café, what they want is place to chat and in this case talk about your cat or next holiday or your car for all I care, just don't make such loud din about everything under the sun.
And if I am here to have a chat with a friend, I am here to have a chat with a friend and I don't think I am obligated to stand up for any morality to anyone. If you cannot observe even very simple social norms, I don't really expect to have any more further with you regardless even if you are the prince of lala land.
There is something that bugs me no end is that, if you want to have sex with a girl or want to know someone, why do you make such a loud noise over it. Isnt such things suppose to be discreet however how disgusting the intentions can be.
Just keep it simple and there isn't anything upright about it- why the hell do you pretend to be so. Cut the chase and the deal is not made, move along- for crying out loud, are you looking for a marriage.
I am not even sure, what the whole shenanigans is about. Sometimes, I think I am just a victim of someone who cannot tell the difference between sex and lust. You can have sex without lust, you can be lusty without sex- in fact the lack of it makes it worse. If you are lusty, please drill a hole in a wall, and if you want to have sex, go find a whore.
I am not even trying to have sex even if I am lusty- there is a huge huge difference. If I want to have sex, I will walk into a whorehouse and pay $50 and forget about it.
If I have reach that stage, the last place I would want to be would at the café looking for a whore.
I am not quite get why people want to replicate art in life. Lust and love in movies is quite different. I would suggest that anyone whom are looking for a quick fix- go to an appropriate place and if you are looking for a mistress, there are brokers for this even. Hence I would suggest that if you want a quick fix in a family oriented place- get in and get out fast and don't make it uncomfortable for everyone. At least people can pretend to look away if it is done fast.
