No wankers please......


I call senstive men Wankers.... It is a british slang for well.... Just about anyone who is a shmuck. An idiot, an incompetent person.

I am so ready to go home... it's only 9 o'clock... hahaha. Many things have been in my mind as of late. I could not play ball this week because my hip was hurting from SUnday's league game. Yeah I am seriously becoming an old man. So i probably did not lose anyweight this week..... Boooo! But it's all good. I am eager to get back on the court.... So on Sunday, I played in a league game and score 0 points. I had blown 2 easy layups.... Lisa was there to witness it all. Oh the shame in my game.... I suck at basketball. But Lisa said " hey you hustled out there..." hahaha. That was her encouragement. Well It was nice. Usually I am very critical about my own B-ball game. It is one of 2 sports that I really struggle in. The Other? Golf. I am also sensitive about my weight.... But I am working on it. So today I want to talk about sensitivity.

Hoon always says that I am sensitive.... Not towards others but toward myself. I think everyone is to a certain degree. I wonder if Hoon means that I can dish it out but I can't take it? I can understand to a certain degree of certain women being sensitive... that is how they are built. But when gone overboard..... Yikes. But when men are overly sensitive, it would be such a wankerish thing. But if I am sensitive.... Yikes. may be I am a wanker.... Nah. I am no bloody wanker.

I bring this up because I was talking to an old Friend of mine yesterday and she said that I was so insensitive. And how we should just bring up word of encouragement and we should never say hurtful things to each other.... Yes that is true....
But don't you think that there is an intention behind what people say? That is more important than the actual words themselves? I mean can you imagine if we were all just saying things that are so proper and nice. I think that what I say can be blunt and maybe misinterpreted. But to think that I am blaintantly trying to be insensitive is just silly. I am a staright shooter. I say it like I see it. I can see how people can be shocked by that or whatever. But I certainly cannot be around some people who are so proper that truth hurts them to a point I have to watch my self all the time. Cause if I had to watch myself all the time.... That would not be me. But than again I could probably watch myself a little bit. I guess I can be wise about it.

Here is my final statement.
People who are too sensitive have a very high self image. When some one points out a flaw, they get offended instead of looking at it. In the end, people who are too senstive are basically vain. Cause if they did not think that highly about themselves, they would not get affected so much. It's almost understandable. Accepting the truth is one of the hardest things to do.

But we all (Including myself) can work on this.

Lets not be wankers and Wankettes.
