stupid elite wannabes.

i was at my friends place near sixth avenue.
we were about to leave and 2 of my friends had their motorcycles parked on the driveway in the house. while discussing where we were gonna go for a bite, one of my friends tried to get his bike out of the house. while doing so, he couldn't balance, lose control over the throttle and sped out eventually falling just before the gate of the opposite unit. the driveway in the house was tiled and slightly sloped downwards towards the exit.
the seemingly master of the house came out and stared at everyone of us when we were helping my friend up. first thing he said, 'i want to check my car. if its damaged, i will call the police.' and apparently his wife came out accusing us of playing around with the bike and had no riding licence.

notice how the husband and wifey are always the same pattern one whenever you run into people like these ? ...
if one's and asshole the other one would be also .... what they say about marrying your own kind is true huh .... -
haha, i didn't think of that.Originally posted by Fatum:notice how the husband and wifey are always the same pattern one whenever you run into people like these ? ...

at that point of time i wasn't happy with their attitudes.
first the old man came out with a torch and said he want to check his car. that was fine. then the old woman came out, accused us of playing around which resulted that accident and my friends without a licence.
its fine if they wanted to check their car or gate. but i think its more sensible and mature to ask if my friend was injured or need any help. coming out accusing us of this and that w/o attempting to find out the truth got me heated up. furthermore i explained to her it was an accident and she replied but its still dangerous. what crap. which accident is safe? -
This got me thinking, if your fren could'nt get the balance rite while pushing the bike onto the road, will he ever be able to hold his own on the open highway where almost every driver acts like a stupid elite wannabes? Having a licence isn't the end all - for bikers, if u bang onto someone or vehicle, u get injured, if others bang against u, u still get injured..

thank you for illustrating my point. it is the reason why i asked if his friend holds a valid licence.Originally posted by FireAndHell:This got me thinking, if your fren could'nt get the balance rite while pushing the bike onto the road, will he ever be able to hold his own on the open highway where almost every driver acts like a stupid elite wannabes?

as mentioned the driveway was sloping downwards. he probably misjudge certain aspect of riding which he claimed to be his balance which resulted the accident. everyone makes mistakes and thank goodness no one was injured in the process of the accident.Originally posted by FireAndHell:This got me thinking, if your fren could'nt get the balance rite while pushing the bike onto the road, will he ever be able to hold his own on the open highway where almost every driver acts like a stupid elite wannabes?

my reason for this post wasn't to make an opinion if my friend is capable of riding but to state the attitudes of that couple i mentioned. -
i don't really blame the couple for behaving this way. just put yourself in their shoes. what if one night you wake up and found out your neighbour's son crashed his moto on your gate or car how would you react?
your instant reaction would probaly be thoughts of him fooling around with the bike and ending up with this accident. and to make things worse the wife has to add oil to the fire. but at the end of the day no police reports filed nobody injured right?? than tts good alr

It's not about where you live.

There's this story about Confucius. In his time, horses were very valuable commodities. Once the stable in his lord's house caught fire. While everyone panicked about the horses, Confucius asked if anyone was hurt. Somehow, over the centuries, we have lost that humanitarianism, and our own interests and material possessions have become more important than the welfare of other human beings. This is perhaps the sad outcome of living in a selfish and materialistic modern society.

well they always think they correct mah.

I smell snootiness.
Did the man hold his nose high up in the air as he threatened you? Cross his arms?
Typical elite attitude. Just because some people have wealth and power, they think they own the world.
Okay enough elitist-bashing.
I do, however, think the elitist man had the right to say he'll call the police if there's damage to his car.
Put yourself in his shoes. Imagine if some kid rode his BMX and collided into your bike, i'm sure "damage" is the first thing on your mind.
I wasn't there to hear elitist man's attitude. But chances are he said it in a snooty way. Which is probably why you feel this way.
Whatever, i'm on your side. -
that's why my father say dun park at the lots beside the handicapped lots where there is the slope that brings you to the lobby of the HDB block.
l8r the bangla drive the rubbish trailer or some kid on the bicycle hit the car and no one will vouch for the damages den u LLST. -
their cars big huh
-
Your guys got into that situation. Only can blame yourself loh... why call them stupid?
Ask your friend to learn from his mistake. -
That's why it's probably the elite man's tone of voice and attitude that pissed off TS.Originally posted by token141:Your guys got into that situation. Only can blame yourself loh... why call them stupid?

Ahhh
Reminds me of how Confucius handles a similar matter.
One day, when Confuciuswent for court, his stable went into flame. Upon his return, he learnt about the matter and asked, "Is there anyone injured?", not enquiring about the horses in the stable.
Recorded in Analects. Those interested can check it out. -
What if you are the one who is staying in 6th ave?
Your work make u a very tired person, then was resting.
suddenly you see a group of teenagers with motorbike poking around your gate.
Of course u'll be fucked up la! There are 2 faces on a coin. Try looking at the other side. Since the teenager with the bike seems to be at fault, of course you got to accept how the owner treated u la.
Imagine ppl whack ur front gate, then got your expensive Jaguar park there, of course u fuck ppl around loh. Dont tell me u nice nice ask the boy whether is he injured or not.
If you're at wrong, dont expect ppl to treat you nice mah. Dont be pampered la.. lol..
