Annoying People who don't understand BRB.

Don't you just hate it when you tell someone BRB and they keep talking to you as if you just didn't excuse yourself from the conversation? For me it doesn't matter whether its through MSN or text messaging, it annoys the hell out of me. Like, hello?

BRB = be right back = I'm busy = Can't talk right now = I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU

Okay, I have to admit, my mood plays a major role. If I'm in a good mood and somebody is bothering me even after I say brb, I'll just be slightly ticked off.

But if I'm in a bad mood....
*$%#=^#&^@)(!(@ LEAVE ME ALONE!




So what if I let my emotions rule my actions sometimes? I'm a girl after all. =P

Just A Thought...

Dictionary.com defines ordinary as of no special quality or interest; commonplace; unexceptional

Hence, you would expect something that was extraordinary to be, well, extra ordinary.
As in extra common, or in a crude way, just more blah.



Then again....



" That's an extraordinary feat!" or just simply " Extraordinary!"

Means that something is really special, out of the ordinary, amazing etc.
Dictionary.com 's definition for extraordinary is beyond what is usual, ordinary, regular, or established. Synonyms : magnificent, exceptional, outstanding etc.

Then why is the word extraordinary? Wouldn't it mean that whatever that is in question is just extra ordinary instead of spectacular?


Hmm... the wonder of the English language.




Sher's gonna call me Oxford again if she reads this post. =.= Next time i'll post something about the wonders of bananas. =D

Wishful thinking? More like utter loss of reality.

I admit, i am something of a dreamer. I love to fantasize about a whole bunch of 'what if's and sometimes put my fantasies to words on black and white paper (figure of speech, i usually use Microsoft Word) and shape them into fictional stories. if i don't like it, i am at every liberty to change and twist it into anything i desire. But i have never ever lost sight of reality. Fantasizing and daydreaming is all fun and games, but a snap and im back to reality.





Wish i could say the same for some people. I have always known that some people were deluded, constructing their own fantasy-cum-reality. But i didn't realize the extent to which some people's delusions were. I was truly amazed by the delusions they can experience when an event which is highly normal can be twisted in their minds to become some other godforsaken thing which never happened. (Probably the last sentence is kinda confusing, but it probably is better if the depth of that sentence is not fully understood. I am not going to elaborate further in fear of offending readers).





Now, i am not trying to discriminate people who enjoy riding the imagination train. As i said, i love going on that ride frequently but i always have RealityLand in view. Hopefully, someday the party mentioned can skip the imagination train and go for a permanent cruise on a Reality liner.






Peace, Love and all that.
