Hateraid anyone?

in rant @ 10:05 pm

Just a small rant.

Why do people have to be haters? Like, I seriously never really put much stock into the word “hater” before, I guess because I didnt personally know anyone who I could have considered to be a hater, but now I realize how to identify one.

Theres this guy online that I talk to named Wes. I don’t personally know this guy, but my best online friend (whom ive known for about 5 years or something like that, maybe even six) Sarah told me to send him a message and fuck with him a long time ago because hes so easy to fuck with. And anyone who knows me knows I love a good opportunity to fuck with someone, lol, so I took her up on the offer. Sure enough, within like 2 minutes of talking to this guy, he was threatening to beat me up and telling me how he would just kick my ass. Keep in mind, I live in Tennessee, this guy lives in Canada. I was cracking up, it was HIGHLARIOUS wahahaha. I mean he was seriously one of the most easily angered people id ever come across in my life. I think hes a little bit younger than me. Hes an obviously, very impressionable person who I later learned lied about whatever he could possibly lie about.

The best thing I ever remember him doing…
Once he made his MSN display name “I have a confession, I am a heroin addict.”
Its painfully obvious how much attention this kid needed and I was never really mean to him, other than occasionally calling him out on something he would obviously be lying about. It was really apparent that he needed to seem “tough” and “manly” and that he was in desperate need to be in control of something so he attempted to control his reality by sort of, creating a false reality around him and living it out via the internet. I have kept talking to him all this time and I always try my best to be nice to him, despite the fact that hes a COMPLETE HATER.
Not too terribly long ago he started all this mess about how hes “Russian” or some bullshit. We started talking about my friend Sarah (who knew him in real life and STILL loves to hear me tell stories about the conversations that Wes and I have because she got to witness his antics firsthand) and he mentioned that he had ESL class with Sarah. Then he started talking about her accent. Ok, a little background info is…Sarah is Persian. Her family is from Iran and she was born in Iran, however, she was Raised in Canada and there is NOTHING about her that is “fob” or immigrant like in ANY way. Ive talked on the phone to Sarah shit tons of times over the period weve known each other and she doesnt have an accent AT ALL (other than a Canadian one). And she sure as FUCK would never have had to take an ESL (English as a second language) class.
Apparently ol Wes didnt know that she and I talk on the phone, so he started to tell me about how she doesnt speak English well and how they had an ESL class together. I was fucking CRACKING UP. I was like dude…I talk to her on the phone…shes never been in an ESL class and she doesnt have an accent…at all. So he totally tried to back track and make up for his obvious lie he just told, once again.

She used to tell me stories about how he tried soooo hard to be cool and be a part of the “cool kids” but everyone just pretty much made fun of him behind his back.

So, now his story is that hes living in Toronto, in an apartment with his girlfriend…I mean..fiance (lol). He has no pictures of them together, ive seen like 5 pictures of her and they all look like different people, he has no pictures of the place they live or anything. Its hilarious. Im not saying that hes lying about this, but judging by the lies hes told in the past it wouldnt surprise me ONE BIT if hes pulling all of this shit out of his ass. He will send me instant messages talking about how “Vikki” (his russian fiance, remember these kids are like 18) is sitting on his lap and all this shit and how theyre SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO drunk (and his typing is totally fine). Its like dude, if I was drunk and sitting in my boyfriends lap, we would probably be fucking. I wouldnt be sitting on the computer telling someone that im drunk and sitting on my boyfriends lap, lol.

Anyways, to make a long story even longer, hes one of those people who, for some reason or another, feels the need to convince himself and others around him that hes SO much better than they are.
He has to “one up” or outdo everyone. Anything I type to him, you can guarantee that hes done it before, and hes done it better. You know, one of those types. The kind of people who have been extremely neglected in life so they make up things to make themselves sound more interesting and theyve done it SO MUCH throughout life that they ultimately convince themselves that they are better than everyone else when in reality, they arent at all.

So last night…I happened to ask him if he had any pictures of him and Vikki, his fiance from Russia (I forgot to add that theyre getting married soon too). He said yeah and he changed his display picture to an extremely small picture of some people on a beach..as a matter of fact..heres a screen shot of his IM that I just took..and the display picture.
wes and vikki his russian fiance
He says that Vikki is the girl and hes the one on the right or something.
So im like yeah dude thats cool and all but..can you send me the original version so I can see it? Thats kinda small. He then tells me that he doesn’t have the bigger version and that thats the only picture of him and his Russian Fiance that he has. Hm.
At the time, I was adding pictures to my flickr account and I sent him the URL to a picture of my living room when I just moved in..and his response was…
“Wow, thats a shitty living room. No offense.”
My response was..
“Yeah I know. I bet yours is so much cooler.”
He then says..
“Well, remember that in Canada things are a lot nicer.”

I really dont have a point to this entry. Other than stating how much I CANT STAND people who arent SHIT but think theyre better than everyone else. You know, its one thing if you have accomplished a lot in your life and youre like, oh, THE DALAI LAMA. Then you could probably have room to brag..but The Dalai Lama wouldnt brag.

In the words of Patrick from Spongebob…”Its funny when people are so blissfully unaware of how dumb they really are..”

No one on this earth is better than any other human being. Regardless of your possessions. No one on this earth is better than any other human being. Regardless of your job. Regardless of the money you make, the clothes you wear, the car you drive. We are all still human beings who are an imperfect, struggling species and we are all in this together. Keep that in mind. No one will ever be better than I am, and I will never be better than anyone else is. Someone on the cover of fortune 500 is no better than the homeless guys who sleep on park benches at night because truely, in the end, possessions mean nothing and spirit means everything. Someone whos life is so miserable that they come online (or into work or ANYTHING, we all have encountered these sorts of people) and talk about how great their life is, and how everything they have is better than yours..probably have a lot of work to do on their spirit. Their spirit is probably crushed and thats why they have to come online and make up things to make themselves sound like halfway decent people, that is how they make themselves feel like better people. Those who try and make themselves feel better at anothers expense are the saddest of beings, because they are the ones that are empty inside and just dont know how to fulfill themselves.
This entry is not about Wes inparticular, hes just a great example of the type of people I am talking about. I know a few of these types of people in real life also, im sure everyone knows them.
The best you can do for these types of people is oblige them to their face, and pray for them behind their back. I hope that Wes just acts this way because hes young and has yet to really figure out how the world works…and not because he has a broken spirit that he doesnt know what to do with.

I will leave you with a few pictures I just took!


by the way..you can see pictures of my really shitty living room on my flickr to the right. :)

  1. Ahhh! People like that drive me insane - and I think we all know a few of them. As I read this entry I kept thinking “that sounds like so-and-so” … and you’re right, those people really are sad. They have to be pretty miserable, don’t they? To have to always be looking for things in others to put down. *sighs* We can only hope that one day they’ll be happier with themselves.
    Adorable kitty, by the way!

  3. I know the issue with Wes is really not the issue at hand, but it just irritates the piss out of me that he tried to talk shit about the picture of your living room when he couldn’t even show you a real picture of him and his beeeeeautiful fiance.

    I think you hit the nail on the head with this entry and did it gracefully. Dang. I guess I should start working. :(
