Irritation in Facebook Is When You Open Your Account And...


(1)
The first post you see is a non-tudung wearing friend suddenly don on the tudung, garnering lots and lots of likes. Comments of "pretty lah kak", "so sweet", "masya allah so beautiful" was met with bashful "ala, takde lah, biasa2 je" or "thank you, awak pun apa kurangnya".

Two minutes later you will see another selfie of the same friend WITHOUT the tudung going "hmm, I feel like red lipstick today".  Oi girl, memang pun kau macam red lipstick sebab step attention seeker lah kan. Sayang sekali sebab tudung dijadikan alat untuk mintak likes and pujian.

Your wall is splattered with posts like, "I hate you", "Why aren't you sensitive to my needs?", "I'm crying for you but you don't care", "You only think of yourself", "Here I am slaving for you and you choose to ignore me", "I'm naked, look at me.." posts. Whoa someone got a serious case of PMS.  "I wish I am your handphone". Eei...nak lah sangat jadi handphone asik kena picit je dengan laki kau.  Member tak puas hati sebab tak dapat agaknya and tros post rasa tak puas hati dalam FB.  Ceritanya sama je.  Come on lah, we all know it's directed at your husband. Takkan kat adik kau punya laki punya classmate punya kucing punya kakak punya makcik punya posmen kan?

After that post, there will be a status update complete with a snapshot of her and him whom she had just abused on screen just a while ago and now captioned, "Loving you forever...my Love" ...!!!

Less than 24 hours later, there will be angry outbursts of "Don't be a kaypoh" "MYOB you bitches", "Who says I'm getting a divorce?" "Saper makan chilli terasa pedas".

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? Dia ni Schizo ke per?

Ada orang komplen dia penat sebab kemas rumah dari tingkat satu sampai tingkat empat. Kan sekarang semua orang dah tau kau tinggal rumah besar. Kalau nak kenen kan suami suruh amik pembantu rumah 2-3 orang tu cakap lah direct kat dia.  Buat pe post kat FB sebab kau tau kan rata2 kawan2 kau bukan akan simpati dengan keadaan kau yang penat kemas rumah 4 tingkat tetapi akan memuji kebesaran rumah kau.

Lagipun laki kau takde FB so, apa kejadahnya motif kau girl?

We sympathize.  We know.  We feel you.  It's not easy being a single mum. Your husband is a good person.  Kita semua sedih sebab kenapa yang baik2 selalu tinggalkan kita.  Tapi dah 5 tahun lah girl. It's time to move on. Yang pergi tetap pergi tetapi yang hidop ni kena teruskan kehidupan.  Anak2 kau pun nak makan.  Bersyukurlah yang kau tu masih ada kerja gaji besar, ada pangkat dan masih mampu membesarkan anak2.  The rest of us ada laki pun macam takde laki sebab semua kena tanggung sendiri.

Enough with the mourning please.  No one wants to hear you sighing and crying in FB about the times you've had.  All your friends are mentally exhausted just by reading your posts. The dwindling sympathy comments and likes should give you a clue beb.  Feel blessed with what you have now and just pray for him. You and your kid's doa would be more useful to him than the epic sludge of tearful status in your FB.

I might sound harsh here because I'm not in your shoes but I sympathize more with the next girl who is left to raise 5 kids on her own because her still living, breathing, imbecile husband is...you know, just fucking imbecile.

Yet another snapshot of your child's perfect score.  Siapa yang tak happy dapat anak pandai kan? Lumrah pun mak bapak yang suka sangat sebab anak baik dan dengar kata. Tapi kalau dah sampai tiap2 hari anak akak punya spelling test score 10/10 akak nak post.  Lenguh lah kak. Kitaorang pun naik menyampah.

You're so happy there's a notification until you clicked on it and there's another game request despite numerous attempts you made telling everyone that you don't play FB games anymore.  Ever since that day when you walked on the streets and you almost "clicked" on the trees to move them somewhere else.

"I want to eat this!!" complete with a picture of (whatever food insert here)  screaming on your wall.  Kalau nak makan gi kedai beli lah.  Apa hal sebok2 menyemak kat wall aku letak status macam tu.  Ingat aku nak belikan ke pe?


(8)
"I am so angry!!".  Bila orang tanya "kenapa sis?", pandai pulak kau jawab "oh nothing."  Bila orang nak pujuk kau teros senyap.  Tapi apasal kau post?  Kurang kasih sayang eh?

Satu selfie step-sexy siap dengan mulut mencurut macam nak cium bontot ayam lepas tu letak caption "What's with the pout?" eeii..sudah2 lah tu dik.

From oblivion to now-the-whole-world-knows.  None of your friends know that you're having problems with your marriage.  You wanted to keep it that way because you said there's too many kaypohse around.  And yet this is what you did:

-Share articles about wayward husbands and update your status with enough scathing remarks that blaze a trail of glory to your personal life.

-Share quizzes like "would you want your ex back if he crawls back to you" with a big font "NEVER" in your status followed by a scorching paragraph of "after all that I have done and this is what you did bla bla bla.."

Hey, people can put two and two together.  No need to update status like this. When concerned friends ask, you get angry because they're being 'kaypoh'. Apa ni girl.  Stop going to stupid pages that only makes you angry instead of moving on.  These pages are feeding on 'likes' to generate income and they build upon your anger and ego instead of doing you any good.  They get the traffic and money.  What do you get?

Someone "liked" an article from publications across the causeway especially when it's related to your country.  You read the comments...big mistake.  Rasa macam nak gi tembak je mulut puaka2 tu semua.  Dah lah katak bawah tempurung.  Passport pun takde. Views and ideas about negeri kau pun setakat dengar cakap "pakcik kat warung depan rumah tu yang cakap world dan jenis yang macam paham".  Abih tulis comment2 yang macam sial....ish..malaslah nak tulis kat sini...buat kotorkan blog aku je.  Bebual macam bagos. Semut kat seberang nampak.  Gajah gedabak depan mata tak nampak.

Talking about publications and posted articles.  Comments sections are just so WTF sometimes.  I came across a few holier than thous on these topics:-

-On abusive maids/helper/childcare teachers.
"This is the reason why I quit my job.  So that I can give full attention to my kids and I get to spend so much time with them."  [Freakin' SAHM who wanted to tell the whole world that her husband has money coming out of his nose so that she can afford to stay at home]

-On netizen bashing.
"Biasalah melayu, selalu busuk hati..that's the reason why I left Singapore to stay in Australia" [Dia nak bilang orang kat Australia takde orang yang busuk hati atau dia nak show off yang dia mampu duduk Australia?]

-On school attendance tracking system.
"Just yesterday I received a call from son's teacher saying that he did not attend school.  My son played truant?  How could a Vice Student Leader played truant?" [Dia marah sebab sekolah punya tracking system tak bagos atau dia nak bilang orang anak dia ada pangkat kat sekolah?]

*******************************************************


Dalam kita terlalu taksub dengan dunia kita dan keghairahan kita nak kongsi kebahagian/kemarahan/keadaan kita kepada satu dunia, kadang2 kita lupa tentang perasaan orang lain.

Kita sebok bilang orang laki kita tak sempurna tanpa menyedari kita dah aibkan suami kita sendiri.

Kita heboh sebab anak kita dapat perfect score tapi kita lupa perasaan kawan2 kita yang dapat anak sederhana atau memang dilahirkan tak begitu sempurna.

Kita post gambar baby kita mintak pujian "ala, comelnya" tanpa perasaan prihatin tentang kawan kita yang dah bertahun kahwin tapi masih belom dikurniakan cahayamata.

Kita nak orang bersedih dengan kita tetapi kita lupa bahawa memang hidup ini sementara dan kita lupa nak bersyukur dengan nikmat dan rezeki yang sedia ada.

Kita tunjuk gambar2 kita hanya untuk menagih likes dan kita lupa jaga aurat kita.  Senang2 Allah bagi, senang2 tau Dia boleh amik balik.

Yang tak affected boleh lah scroll and log out.  Yang affected macam aku ni kenalah muhabasah diri dan constantly remind myself that apa yang berlaku ada sebabnya.  Cuma kalau aku tak suka, aku kena doakan yang aku pun tak jadi macam tu.  Jangan aku dok mengutuk tapi aku pun 2x5.

Sekian.
