    Ke"desperate"an teenage IE users

    I am a darn daredevil. I know he consequences of writing this article. I will be stalked by unknown people, be dragged up a van, beaten up like your mom making fish balls, and in the end, being thrown off Tanjung Rachado. If you are using a lot of friend finding software and services.... you shouldn't be reading this. If you go to cybercafe just to turn on your ICQ, you are out also. As for you people who has a instant messenger to keep in touch with your friends only...I guess it's okay unless you are those "perasan" type. This article is to :-

    1. to tell people of what Malaysian(or in fact the world, but I don't see others do this before, though they are the founders) are doing in order to help reach the 70 million population rate.

    2. To stop those screwed chain mails that I don't forward(yes,I don't) from entering my inbox(they are crap)

    Ever since last year, I have been living somewhere in Cheras-Ampang border. And of course, being a game junkie, the first thing I look for the the nearest cybercafe. And when i begin to use the services there, I suddenly realized what most of the patrons are doing...they are bugging unknown people in the net and trying out some cupid's touch. Well, I don't mean everybody, but most of them are punk like, sneaker wearing and really lonely teenage 'Mayau's. Those who know me, you can call me to ask what is a mayau(this service is limited to only those who know me, those that got me through the net don't count). I thought this happens only in cybercafes, but slowly, I begin to see the bigger picture. Everybody is trying their luck not only in the net, but also on TV station through SMS(50 cents per SMS) and also sometimes through a random phone number(you got to be real lucky). Now, if u can find one through the the latter, curse your ownself for not visiting the closest Toto to buying a lucky combination. They do everything, I know this guy who uses some instant messenger to know girls online. When I check his contacts, all of them seem to be unknown girls and only one guy that is a friend of his.

    And also, if you guys read teen magazines, you will know what I mean. Sample question:-

    Hi Small Sis. I met this guy in the net and he is wonderful. I never met him before, but he treats me very good and loves me very much. When he asked me to be her girl friend, i accepted although I never met him before because he loves me.We had a date,and on that day, i lost my virginity to him although we met for the first time, because he loves me. And then he never contacted me again. I feel so sad, can you help me?

    (direka semata-mata, not the real one, but you can find this in most teenage themed books)

    Me? I would ask you to jump off the building with a cut wrist and a rope on your neck. This is crap.And also, wolves prowl around on the net(not me) to look for gullible people and then begins the hunt. It's okay if you had nothing to do, met a few times, became friends and then courtship and in the end, acceptance, but no, this must happen this way, skip everything except courtship and acceptance. And then you don't tell mom, and start asking crap on the mags.

    And then the crap e-mails. They say " forward this or your GF/BF will run away". Oh, now the mail has some super power to control minds. And it is not even like it's any good, not much decorated. Stop freaking out already, it's not like you know what is a GF or Bf, in the end, it could only mean Grape Fruit or Big Fish. If you guys are really that desperate, get a few frogs from the local swamp or market, preferably near the castle, and then kiss it. Might get a handsome prince.
