Thanks for all the comments regarding this blog ^_^ (hope some constructive ones can be posted here to share with all :)
The post this time is a more delicate, close to taboo-ish topic (although it has been a main topic for R&B and rap songs)... Here it is, enjoy!
Player... In your mind, what does that word mean? One who participates in a game or sport... a gambler... one who performs in theatrical roles... one who plays a musical instrument... all those seem fitting for the description of player that I'm about to highlight, which is one that fools around and hurts the hearts and feelings of ladies (for men) and vice versa...
In the aftermath of recent events, I've come to grow sick and tired of seeing one too many ladies having their hearts broken by those irresponsible monsters... Men are not spared as well, as the player trait transcends to the female gender as well... Players equate to monsters, as they seem to resemble a human on the outside, but within every ounce of humane emotion has left them...
As "All men are created equal" - Thomas Jefferson (1776), somewhere along the life of players deep emotional scars were made and bore deep into their intellect and emotions... Deep down, players are "selfish, scared, pathetic, can't see past themselves" -The Guru. Under the cover of smooth-talking and ego trips, players hide their insecurities by passing themselves off as superior, boasting, telling blatant lies and covered in fancy clothes and shoes... Behind it all, they will do whatever it takes to maintain that life, as the fear of being exposed as a phoney is too much to bear... An actual real-life case will be highlighted, the person will be referred to as The Tard (named it as such for it pays homage to the words bastard and retard), it is to protect the identity of the person and also to not stoop to the level of The Tard...
This is not to defame but as a means to give fair warning to others that such monsters do exist and these type of individuals are what taints the name of good samaritans everywhere... *On one sunny spring morning... (birds twittering, sun is shining bright... "Cut! Cut! This is supposed to be a serious matter"..."Sorry, played the wrong intro track"*
The Tard had posed himself to be a good samaritan, helping out around college, club events, giving tuition classes, and also spilling the beans on The Tard's flatmate to his parents, claiming that the flatmate is a total slacker and irresponsible... But little does The Tard know, that description fits The Tard's own personality...
*Stay tuned!... more after this infomercial...*
More on why players are well... players! "Deep seeded fears stemming from past hurts/betrayals leading to complex pathological defence mechanisms developed to distance oneself from true emotional connections" -The Guru... Emotional scars run deep, be it from family problems, can't get over being dumped, backstabbed, etc... However players enter a vicious cycle, as they impose onto others the hurt that they used feel before becoming monsters that they are... Players have a personal agenda to create problems in perfectly harmonious families, be the dumper instead of the dumpee (wait, is there such a word *word searches...* I meant dumped :p), and backstabs others in as vicious ways or even more so... These emotional scars then are "Manifested as expressions of sexual inadequecies, emotional distancing and so on" -The Guru... From the scarring, and right before forcing others, players see themselves as lacking, hence choosing the easiest way to release frustration is by sex as well as toying with others' emotions... Quoted from a self-confessed female player, "They (guys) would feel OK afterwards" -on making out with guys at clubs as well as changing boyfriends like they were changing face towels!
*Now it's time to get back to the misadventures of The Tard!...*
Soon after, The Tard moved out and moved in with decent, responsible individuals... That is when The Tard's player ways rear it's ugly head (albeit on a skinny *close to boney*, pale and small frame)... After several long months of bad debts (non-payment of rent, phone, electricity, internet bills) meanwhile spending money loaned from friends and spending on The Tard's self and the unsuspecting girl, The Tard was given fair notice (close to 5 weeks before) to shift right out... The Tard had become a financial burden on the other housemates as they keep covering his share of the rental and so on... All the while, to gain support from others, The Tard made a sympathy plea by posing as 'having leukaemia' (a little trick The Tard learnt from watching the movie, A Walk to Remember)... With this, The Tard got the sympathy he wanted as tutors and students alike were blinded, falling for the lie and forgiving him for all his wrongs... That is when he got careless!...
The Tard pushed the tolerance level of the tutors to bursting point, skipping one too many classes (something along the lines of 6 or 7 classes)... Besides that, The Tard made the all too typical player move, dumping the girl after having had sexual relations with her (took her virginity and The Tard said that he was sick of her and the relationship was over 1 week thereafter)...
With recent reports, The Tard has gotten himself barred from 3 exams, being on the wanted list as well as blacklisted by the telephone company, as well as being searched high and low by The Tard's own parents! (The Tard forged the college's official letterhead demanding special fees from The Tard's parents, while such fees were unknown even to the college!)
The Tard is the perfect example of a player (although not as smooth as 'professionals' who prowl the night scene for unsuspecting victims), where the reputation of true do-gooders are sploit by low-lifes like The Tard!
As I want to stress again, this is not to defame anyone nor is this slander, I intend this to open the eyes of everyone out there, that there is such threat to society and the very values that it is built on... Females are not the only victims of players as males get their fair share of it as well... It is not a matter restricted to gender, though in terms of publicity, male players are more frequently depicted in mass media...
I am also not deviating from the message of my first blog post, as more careful evaluation of individuals are needed to stop this never-ending chain of events... Like the definition of player: Players think what they do is a game or sport, they are like a gambler taking risks for their personal enjoyment, all the while giving acting like thespians or Broadway stars in theatrical roles and playing with other people's emotions like it were a musical instrument... Players give love a bad name...
To end this post, I would like to share some rather hilarious spoofs of famous Hollywood movies, acted by none other than WWE Superstars: Wrestlemania 21 Movie Trailer Videos (viewed by online streaming)... A familiar name is mentioned in one of the videos that hints at a person mentioned above... Tickle your funny bone and enjoy your day!
