I Photoshop A Hater
During many interviews I've been asked this question: How are people like in real life to you? Are they as mean as they are on the Internet?
My answer has always been that in the 13 years I've been blogging, I've only encountered people who are rude to me in real life... Say less than 5 times.
Even then it's not open confrontation but just snide remarks and some sniggering.
This number is remarkably low, considering how frequently it happens online.
Plus I am as tall as most people's armpits and frequently tittering on 5 inch heels, making me a terrible sparring opponent if it ever comes to blows. I mean, most people don't go insult burly men because they fear getting punched in the face, right?
But I won't punch people just because they are rude to me. I won't do that because I know I won't win in a fight, what with multiple plastic surgery and languid limbs. Plus after that you have to go to the police station and file reports and blah blah maybe get an assault charge. It's simply not worth it - why get into a fight you can't win?
That doesn't mean I just let people trample all over me. No... I bring the fight to my home ground. You have to be rude? Let's fight on the Internet.
You can probably guess... Today marks another of the rare occasions when someone was actually rude to me! IN REAL LIFE!!
As such, I must let everyone know of this man's bravery! Someone pass him a medal!
The story begins... At about 6pm, I brought Dash (and Ellen) to Bishan AMK park, where there is a water playground which Dash loves.
