"Blue hair is ugly!"
"Why you so lala chai?"
(If you have no idea what lala chai means, please educate yourself on the Urban Dictionary)
Some people are just too timid to show their hostility and felt like they needed to say something, so they make skeptical remarks and plant some doubts in your mind.
Some people are just downright hostile and want to put their tongue on everything, leaving their utterly disgusting saliva scent on your mind.
And there are the ones who are dumb and follow the existing social stereotypes created by the society, which categorises unique people into different classes and ranks, just like how they categorise eggs into Class A, B, C, D, E and F.
In no way, I could see how stereotypes can help anyone react faster to what is coming, based on someone else's experiences or their own. I would only feel the constant fear and anxiety if I were to conform to the stereotypes that I did not create. This will do nothing but create a barrier around me, prohibiting social contacts, which is what is happening right now.
So now, question, do I look like a lala chai just because I have blue hair? Do not even let me tell you to "be the judge".
Yes, the thing on my head is blue. *grunts*
According to the Urban Dictionary, lala chai means "Typical Chinese male who have funky hairstyles, bell bottom pants which are bigger than 18" rims, collared shirts with dragon patterns and only speaks Cantonese. He has no clue how to speak English, and when he does, you won't understand anything"
I mean... SERIOUSLY? Is it large enough to slam it on peoples' faces?
I am not denying that the first part is true but the ones after is just nonsense. I do not wear bell bottom pants. I do not wear collared shirts with dragon patterns. I speak Chinese, Malay, English AND Cantonese. UNLESS you cannot understand a word I am writing, STOP CALLING ME A LALA CHAI? *dammit*
Now hear it from me, you people out there who just know how to categorise other people.
"I DYED MY HAIR BLUE BECAUSE I LOVE BLUE! I DO NOT CARE IF IT DOES NOT LOOK NATURAL AND IT LOOKS SMURFY! IT IS NOT LIKE YOUR BROWN OR BLONDE OR RED/BURGUNDY HAIR IS YOUR NATURAL HAIR COLOUR, DUH! EAT IT!"
One just simply cannot place a group of people or anyone at all into one category and infer that a person portrays a range of characteristics and abilities! One cannot know what anyone can or cannot do and their personalities unless one get to know him/her.
This is just like the eggs you categorised to Class A, B, C, D, E and F, based on their freshness and their weight. You will never know if they are rotten and totally useless unless you break them open.
"Because I love blue."
"You are fugly!"
"Why you so ignorant?"
Categorised eggs...lol XD
ReplyDeleteHmm.. How about turquoise??
Anyway, nice hair colour. *thumbs up*
No no! It was supposed to be a darker shade of blue, kind of like midnight blue.
DeleteThen it slowly fades. Now I have bit of turquoise and bit of purple and bit of blue. LOL
